Our Services for Families

Families help most when they stay involved in care without taking it over. Our addiction support for families gives you a clear role, starting with one call to admissions.

Family Involvement for Loved Ones

Family involvement is open to the close family members of the adults we treat, such as parents and partners. When your loved one starts care, admissions explains how family involvement works for your family and how to take part.

Joint Sessions With Client Consent

When your loved one agrees and our team confirms it will help, family members can join coordinated sessions with our case management team, and California residents can request family therapy. These sessions give you a safe place to talk about what has happened at home and plan the next steps together.

Treatment Updates and Privacy

Federal and California privacy laws protect adults in substance use treatment, so we can't confirm someone is a client without their written consent. Once your loved one signs a release of information, our team shares updates with the people they choose.

Concerns You Can Share

Our therapists welcome your observations about your loved one at any time. Sharing what you see at home never breaks their privacy, because the consent rules limit what we share, not what we hear.

Addiction Treatment for a Loved One

Getting addiction treatment for a loved one starts with one call from a family member. From there, our team works directly with your loved one, because an adult with a substance use disorder makes the final choice about their own care.

Free Confidential Call

The first call is free and confidential. We ask what you've noticed and which substances are involved. It also helps to mention any recent detox or prescribed medication and to have their insurance card ready, so admissions can review benefits early.

Intake Assessment

Your loved one meets with our team for a private intake assessment in person or by video. We look at their substance use history and mental health using the DSM-5 and ASAM Criteria (standard guides for diagnosis and for choosing a level of care).

Treatment Plan and Start Date

From the assessment, our team builds an individualized treatment plan and chooses the right starting level of care. Start dates depend on insurance approval and an open spot in the program, and admissions keeps your loved one informed at each step.

Therapies Your Loved One Receives

Each week, your loved one meets one-on-one with one of our therapists and joins structured group sessions led by our team. Their treatment plan sets which of these therapies fit their needs.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

In cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) sessions, our therapists help your loved one track the situations and thoughts that lead to cravings. Together we build a practical response for each one, and your loved one practices it between sessions so a plan is ready when stress builds at home.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) Skills

In dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) skills sessions, we teach distress tolerance (getting through a hard moment without making it worse) and emotional regulation (noticing and calming strong feelings). Your loved one also practices mindfulness and grounding, which give them a way to pause before a heated reply at home.

Trauma-Informed Care

When substance use is tied to past trauma, our trauma-informed care moves at a pace your loved one can handle. Our therapists let them share difficult experiences when they feel ready, without pressure or judgment.

12-Step Principles and Accountability

Group sessions led by our team draw on the 12-Step principles of honesty and accountability. Your loved one builds a recovery support system of peers and family members who know their goals and stay in touch.

When a Loved One Refuses Help

Our team keeps working with your family while a loved one says no to treatment. When their refusal comes from practical worries about rides or work hours, our case management plans around those barriers before day one.

Telehealth on Zoom gives a hesitant loved one a way to attend sessions from home when it’s clinically appropriate. A refusal or a canceled start date never stops them from beginning treatment with us later.

Outpatient Programs at Grant Me The Courage Recovery and Therapy

We offer different outpatient treatment programs, and your loved one lives at home during each one. The intake assessment sets the starting level.

When withdrawal needs medical care first, our team arranges a detox referral and then assesses your loved one for outpatient care. Clients on prescribed medication, including MAT (medication for opioid or alcohol use disorder), are welcome after clinical review.

Partial Hospitalization (PHP)

During about 30 days of partial hospitalization, your family member spends most of the day in treatment and comes home each evening. Evenings at home matter most at this stage, and coordinated family sessions help your household plan them.

Intensive Outpatient Treatment (IOP)

Our intensive outpatient treatment meets three hours a day, five days a week, for about 60 days, so your family member resumes work and family duties. This stage is a good time for your household to agree on new routines in a coordinated family session.

Our Outpatient Therapy

Weekly outpatient therapy works as a starting level or as the next step after IOP. At this stage your family member manages daily life with one session a week, and families keep their part in the relapse prevention plan.

Telehealth Treatment on Zoom

Telehealth on Zoom lets your family member attend from home when it's clinically appropriate and allowed by regulations. It keeps treatment steady during weeks when travel is hard for the household. For families outside California, our team helps with referrals to care closer to home.

Healthy Boundaries and Family Recovery

Our team helps families notice the habits at home that keep substance use going. This is called enabling, and our team shows families how to replace it with support that keeps your family member accountable. In sessions, we look at the family dynamics behind it.

In coordinated family sessions, your family member practices boundaries and honest communication, two skills our group sessions also cover. With their consent, you can agree on limits together.

Aftercare and Relapse Prevention

Before treatment ends, your loved one writes a relapse prevention plan that names their triggers and early warning signs. The plan also lists who they will call when cravings get strong. With their consent, you learn those warning signs too, which turns family support in addiction recovery into specific actions at home.

After IOP, clients step down to weekly outpatient therapy with our team, then continue ongoing care at our partner practices, Foothill Behavioral Health Consultants or Radiant Path Therapy and Psychiatry. Our team also teaches overdose awareness and naloxone (Narcan) use, so the people at home know what to do in an emergency. After a relapse, your loved one returns to us without shame, and we move them back to a more structured level of care when that fits.

Case Management and Recovery Resources

Case management at our rehab handles practical needs so families don't manage them alone. Our team helps clients find transportation resources and healthcare access. Help with employment and education is part of it too. When needed, we also connect them with housing and other community and family resources.

Why Families Choose Grant Me The Courage Recovery and Therapy For Family Program

Families choose us because our addiction support for families gives you a real role in your loved one’s care while protecting their privacy. You know from the first call which updates you will receive, coordinated family sessions help your household agree on house rules, and everyone at home learns how to use naloxone.

California residents can also request family therapy. Clinical Director Tiffany Komba is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) and brings that family focus to every treatment plan she oversees, within our Joint Commission–accredited program.

Client Reviews

Insurance Coverage on a Family Plan

Your loved one can use their own insurance or coverage through a family health plan, and our admissions team reviews those benefits before treatment begins. We accept Blue Shield plans. Families with Aetna, Cigna or TRICARE coverage can use those plans with us as well.

For families who prefer to pay directly, private pay is available. Each plan sets its own coverage and out-of-pocket costs, and admissions explains them before the start date. You can verify insurance online or ask during your first call.

Areas We Serve

Families can schedule the intake assessment by phone or in person. For those who live farther away, telehealth on Zoom makes weekly sessions easier to attend. We serve families in these neighborhoods:
