Outpatient and virtual addiction treatment for Santa Ana residents
If you live in Santa Ana and you are trying to work out what kind of help you need, start with the level of care rather than the drive.
Grant Me The Courage Recovery and Therapy is an adult outpatient substance use treatment program, operating since 2013 and DHCS-licensed — license #300302AP.
In-person care happens in Brea, in north Orange County. We also offer telehealth for people located in California, so the virtual side of the program is the part you can use from home in Santa Ana.

What outpatient care asks of you
Outpatient means you live at home and come in for scheduled sessions. What we offer is a partial hospitalization program and an intensive outpatient program, weekly therapy, case management, recovery and relapse-prevention education, and life-skills and wellness support.
That fits when it is safe for you to be at home between sessions. When it is not, a different level of care comes first.
Between the two levels, PHP carries more hours in a week and IOP carries fewer. Which one makes sense is part of the assessment at the start, and it can change as things change.
What this program does not provide
No detox. No medical care for withdrawal. No 24-hour or overnight care. No emergency care.
If you are concerned about what stopping will do to your body, particularly with alcohol or benzodiazepines, talk to a doctor or another qualified medical provider. Some people need medical supervision to stop safely and some do not, and a clinical assessment is what determines that.
How care is put together
Everyone starts with an individualized assessment covering needs, strengths, challenges, and goals. From there the team builds a treatment plan using cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, relapse-prevention strategies, and 12- Step work.
Programming addresses the practical parts of recovery: coping skills, emotional regulation, communication, boundaries, healthy relationships, goal setting, wellness, independent living, and employment and community resources.
Progress gets reviewed as you go, so the plan can change when your situation changes.
Why case management matters here
A lot of what makes recovery hold or fall apart happens outside the treatment room: healthcare, work, school, housing, transportation, and whether there is any support system around you. Case management is where those get addressed rather than ignored. It is part of the program, not a separate service.

We are not a 24-hour program and not an emergency service.

Frequently Asked Questions
What should I ask a program before I start?
Ask which level of care fits your situation. Say up front if you get withdrawal symptoms when you stop, because that is a medical question and it belongs in the assessment.
Can I do the whole thing by video from Santa Ana?
We offer telehealth for people located in California, on Zoom. Whether it covers everything you need depends on your level of care, so ask directly.
Will treatment fit around work?
That is worth settling before you enroll anywhere. Bring your actual hours to the conversation and we will be straight with you about what the schedule requires.
What if I have tried treatment before and it did not stick?
That is one of the most common things people say when they call. It is useful information rather than a mark against you, and it shapes the plan.
