Outpatient Treatment Program in Santa Ana, California

At The Grove in Santa Ana, our outpatient treatment programs are built to meet men where they are—whether they’re stepping down from higher levels of care or starting their recovery journey in a more flexible setting. We know that not everyone can pause their lives completely to get help, which is why our outpatient options are designed to provide high-quality support while allowing for real-world responsibilities.

Our clinical team delivers evidence-based care through personalized therapy, group sessions, and structured support, all rooted in a deep understanding of how addiction and mental health conditions overlap. With a focus on long-term recovery, we help men build the tools they need to manage cravings, address underlying emotional struggles, and stay accountable—all while remaining active in their daily lives.

What Is Included in Our Outpatient Treatment Programs?

Our outpatient program at The Grove is structured to give you clinical support without disrupting your daily responsibilities. Most participants engage in group therapy for 1 to 2 hours per day, several days a week, with schedules designed to accommodate work or school commitments. Despite the flexible hours, the care you receive is comprehensive and deeply personalized. Here’s what you can expect as part of our outpatient treatment program:

  • Licensed Primary Therapist – One-on-one sessions with a therapist who helps you process underlying issues and create a personalized treatment plan.
  • CAADAC-Certified Case Manager – Support with goal setting, progress tracking, and daily life planning.
  • Psychiatry & Medication Management – Access to psychiatric evaluations and medication support for co-occurring mental health conditions.
  • Group Therapy – Daily or near-daily group sessions focused on relapse prevention, coping skills, trauma, and emotional processing.
  • Peer Community – Connection with others in recovery, building accountability and support through shared experience.
  • Flexible Scheduling – Treatment hours that fit around your job, school, or family obligations.
  • Evidence-Based Programming – CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and other clinically proven approaches to support long-term recovery.

We believe healing happens through structure, connection, and compassion. Our outpatient program is designed to help you stay grounded while taking real steps forward.

Where You Will Stay

One of the most common questions people have when considering outpatient treatment is, “Where will I live during the program?” At The Grove, we recognize that everyone’s living situation is different. Some men come to us looking for structure and support away from home, while others may be balancing treatment with careers, family, or independent living. No matter your circumstances, we’ll work with you to make sure your housing situation supports your recovery—not complicates it.

Internal Sober Livings Through The Grove

For clients who want the accountability and structure of a sober living environment, we offer our own housing options through The Grove. These homes are pet-friendly, staffed by experienced sober living managers, and designed to give you a safe, supportive space to grow in recovery. You’ll live alongside other men who are also committed to their healing, with easy transportation to and from outpatient services included in your treatment plan.

External Sober Living Options

If our internal housing isn’t the right fit, we can connect you with trusted sober living homes in the Santa Ana and greater Orange County area. We’ve built strong relationships with reputable programs that uphold high standards for safety, structure, and peer support. Whether you need something closer to work, more budget-friendly, or tailored to specific needs, we’ll help guide you to the right fit.

Home or Apartment Living

Not everyone needs or wants to live in a structured environment. If you’re stable in your sobriety or simply need outpatient care while maintaining your home life, our program can be adapted to fit. Many clients continue living in their own homes or apartments while attending treatment—especially those juggling parenting, work, or school. We’ll help you stay connected and supported, even outside the walls of our facility.

Why Choose The Grove for Outpatient Treatment?

When you’re looking for outpatient treatment, it’s natural to weigh your options. Not every program is built the same—and the wrong fit can slow your progress or leave you feeling unsupported. At The Grove Recovery Network, we’ve built our outpatient program to fill the gaps many men experience elsewhere. Here’s why our approach stands out:

Real Flexibility That Fits Your Life

You shouldn’t have to choose between getting help and keeping up with your responsibilities. Our outpatient program is designed for working professionals, students, and busy parents—with group therapy sessions typically running 1–2 hours per day, several days a week. We make it easier to commit to recovery without pressing pause on the rest of your life.

Group Therapy That Speaks to Men’s Real Struggles

Let’s be honest—some group sessions can feel generic or disconnected. At The Grove, we do it differently. Our groups are designed specifically for men, with a focus on emotional honesty, accountability, and real-world tools for handling stress, anger, relationships, and relapse triggers. Whether you’re new to treatment or continuing your recovery, these aren’t surface-level conversations—they’re meaningful, relevant, and led by clinicians who know how to reach men where they are.

Personalized Care—Not a One-Size-Fits-All Plan

From day one, you’ll work with a licensed therapist and a certified case manager who help you build a treatment plan around your specific needs. Whether you’re navigating trauma, rebuilding relationships, or learning how to stay sober in a high-pressure environment, your care is tailored and adaptive—not copy-and-paste.

Support for Mental Health, Too

Addiction rarely exists in a vacuum, and we understand how often it’s tied to deeper struggles like anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, or psychosis. That’s why our outpatient program includes access to psychiatric care, medication management, and therapy that addresses both substance use and co-occurring mental health conditions. No matter what you’re facing—whether it’s alcohol, opioids, stimulants, or a dual diagnosis—we have the clinical experience to help you move forward. You can learn more about the addictions and mental health conditions we treat by visiting our What We Treat page.

A Community That Gets It

Recovery doesn’t happen in isolation—it happens in connection. At The Grove, we help you build a support network that lasts beyond the walls of treatment. We provide transportation and assistance to help you access 12-Step meetings, SMART Recovery, LifeRing, and other secular recovery groups throughout Orange County. Whether your path is spiritual or secular, we’ll help you plug into a community that aligns with your values.

We also offer a robust alumni program that keeps you connected to men who have walked the same road—and stayed the course. These aren’t just people in recovery—they’re people in sustained recovery, who can remind you that long-term change is possible. From day one, we’re not just preparing you to get better—we’re helping you stay better, with people who genuinely have your back.
