Getting here
How residents of the city of Orange reach our care
Enhance serves residents of the city of Orange from its base in Tustin, about 6 miles from Orange City Hall by road. You can also join many sessions by video from home.
6 miles
In person
You can attend treatment in person, and admissions will tell you where your program meets when you call.
Join from home
Virtual PHP, IOP and outpatient mental health care run by video, so much of your treatment can happen from home.
If a structured home would help during PHP or IOP, supported living adds staff oversight and a sober setting. Admissions can tell you where the homes are.
Mental health treatment levels for Orange, California
Our mental health treatment services for the city of Orange include inpatient care, PHP, an intensive outpatient program (IOP) and outpatient therapy. The admissions team helps you choose a level on the first call.
In person
Inpatient
In inpatient mental health care, also called residential treatment, you live on site and follow a full daily schedule.
PHP
You spend most of the day in mental health treatment, then go home or to supported living each evening.
IOP
Intensive outpatient mental health care takes part of your week, so you can keep up with work and family.
Outpatient
You meet for individual, group or family therapy on a regular schedule, often after a more intensive level.
Inpatient care takes place at Eden by Enhance (opens in a new tab), our sister facility, and Enhance admissions arranges your stay.

Therapies and treatment approaches
Your clinical team uses therapies with published research behind them, and your plan changes as you progress.
- Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)
- Helps you notice the thoughts behind cravings and low mood, and practice skills that help you avoid a return to use.
- Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT)
- Builds skills for handling strong emotions and distress without turning to alcohol or drugs.
- Rational emotive behavior therapy (REBT)
- Challenges the beliefs that make setbacks feel unbearable, so they are easier to work through.
- Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR)
- A structured therapy that helps you process traumatic memories, including trauma connected to substance use.
- Individual, group and family therapy
- Treatment happens in all three settings, and family sessions show the people close to you how to support your recovery.
How your treatment plan is built
A clinical assessment
Clinicians look at your substance use, mental health and daily life together before recommending detox, residential treatment or outpatient care.
A plan with your goals
You and your clinical team set the goals in your treatment plan, and the team reviews it as things change.
Medication when it helps
If medication is part of your care, a licensed psychiatrist prescribes it and reviews how it is working.
Aftercare and relapse prevention
Before each step down, you and your team plan the next stage, including coping skills, relapse prevention and supported living if it helps.
Conditions we treat, and substance use when both are present
We treat depression, anxiety disorders, bipolar disorder, trauma and other forms of mental illness. When substance use disorders are co-occurring, we treat both together in one personalized treatment plan.

How to choose the right level of care
Outpatient care fits when you can stay safe at home between sessions. Inpatient care is worth discussing when severe depression or other symptoms mean you cannot stay safe at home overnight.
Outpatient care may fit if
- You can stay safe at home between sessions.
- You have a steady place to live and people who support you.
- You need to keep working, studying or caring for family.
- Weekly therapy has not been enough, and you need more hours of support.
Start with detox or inpatient if
- You cannot stay safe at home through the night.
- Symptoms stop you from eating, sleeping or getting through a day.
- You tried outpatient care before, and it was not enough.
- Stopping alcohol or a drug makes you shaky, sick or afraid.
If there is immediate danger, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room. For a mental health crisis, call or text 988.
