Practical help, without leaving home

Addiction rehab at home, tailored to your routine

Outpatient rehab gives you access to expert support while you stay grounded in your real life. Whether you’re just starting out or returning to care, we’ll work with you to build something sustainable.

This program is especially helpful if you can’t attend residential treatment or need help staying on track after leaving one. It’s flexible, non-residential, and grounded in real-world routines.

  • Outpatient care includes counselling, group support, and education.
  • Sessions can be in-person, digital, or blended to fit your needs.
  • We’ll help you rebuild stability while keeping life moving forward.

Understanding the road to recovery

What to know about non-residential rehab

Outpatient rehab meets people in the reality of their lives. Research shows many people need two to five attempts at long-term sobriety. Each attempt is a chance to build insight, strength, and new strategies. For those not ready or able to enter residential treatment, this form of care offers structure, support, and safety without stepping away from daily life.

Relapse is part of many recovery stories

Relapse doesn’t mean you’ve failed. It means you need something different. Many of us have returned to old habits before we found something that truly worked. That’s why outpatient rehab exists. It’s not a step backwards, but a step toward something more sustainable. It helps you re-enter your recovery with more support and self-understanding than before.

  • You can return to treatment without restarting from zero.
  • The program is designed to meet you wherever you're at.
  • Every attempt helps shape a recovery that fits your real life.

Who outpatient rehab is designed to support

Outpatient care is not just a fallback; it’s a powerful starting point or ongoing support option. It suits people who are newly sober, those in long-term recovery, or anyone needing structure after a relapse. What matters most is your willingness to engage with the process in a way that feels manageable and real.

  • Ideal for people with work, family, or other life commitments.
  • Helpful for those stepping down from inpatient or detox.
  • Suitable for anyone seeking flexible, meaningful recovery support.

What you can expect from the outpatient program

Outpatient rehab provides the same quality of care you’d expect from inpatient treatment, with a structure that fits around daily life. The program is grounded in evidence-based approaches and guided by people who’ve walked this path themselves. It’s practical, responsive, and designed to create lasting change.

  • One-on-one counselling tailored to your recovery goals.
  • Group therapy and education focused on resilience and relapse prevention.
  • Ongoing support from professionals who truly understand addiction.

Why staying connected to your life matters

Working on recovery while staying in your everyday life helps you apply new insights right away. You don’t have to press pause. Instead, you build strength right where you are. This approach helps you learn what works, adjust what doesn’t, and grow through your actual experiences, not just in theory.

  • You remain engaged with work, school, or family life.
  • You can test and refine your coping strategies in real time.
  • You build independence and confidence within your existing environment.

How outpatient rehab fits into the full recovery journey

Outpatient support often plays a critical role at many points along the recovery path. For some, it’s a first step. For others, it’s a bridge between inpatient treatment and independent sobriety. It’s also an essential resource for those needing to re-engage after setbacks without shame, without starting over.

  • Supports step-down care after residential programs or detox.
  • Offers continuity during transitions or times of risk.
  • Provides structure, community, and support for the long haul.

Questions people often ask

Outpatient rehab FAQs

What happens in transitional housing?

For patients who have completed our residential rehabilitation programs, our transitional housing program offers a safe and comfortable space for them to transition into the world outside. This outpatient rehabilitation program is about reintroducing the normalcy of life, and allowing patients to reenter life at their own pace.

Dans nos maisons de transition, les résidents pourront :

  • Profitez d'un environnement sûr et sans substances grâce aux tests de dépistage de drogues dans l'urine et aux alcootests.
  • Apprendre à cohabiter avec ses pairs dans un environnement coopératif
  • Trouver leur propre sens de la responsabilité personnelle et s'approprier leur rétablissement.
  • Bénéficiez de consultations, d'une thérapie cognitivo-comportementale et d'une thérapie de groupe.
  • Mettre l'accent sur le développement des compétences de vie

Les résidents seront également encouragés à trouver des activités en dehors du programme de désintoxication ambulatoire, notamment des loisirs, du bénévolat, des formations et des emplois à temps partiel. Tout au long de ce processus, vous serez continuellement soutenu par notre équipe sympathique composée de professionnels expérimentés.

What happens in intensive outpatient programs?

The Hader Clinic’s outpatient drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs continue the treatment patients received within our facilities. With the help of our outpatient drug detox programs, patients can maintain their sobriety while acclimating to the outside world.

Programs involved in our intensive outpatient program include:

  • Visites quotidiennes dans nos cliniques
  • Conseil individuel
  • Soutien par les pairs et thérapie de groupe
  • Thérapie cognitivo-comportementale
  • Dépistage de drogues dans l'urine

Que se passe-t-il après le programme de désintoxication ambulatoire ?

Le chemin vers la guérison est loin d'être terminé. La dépendance est un combat permanent qui peut affecter une personne pendant des années, voire des décennies. Le traitement ne s'achève jamais vraiment, tout comme un toxicomane ne se « remet » jamais complètement de sa dépendance.

After completing inpatient programs at The Hader Clinic, patients can continue to revisit our outpatient relapse prevention programs as long as they need to.

Do I need to complete inpatient rehab first?

Not always. Our outpatient rehab program is open to people with a wide range of backgrounds and needs. While many clients transition into outpatient care after completing a residential stay or detox program, that’s not a requirement.

What matters most is whether outpatient rehab is appropriate for your current stage of recovery. During your initial intake, we’ll explore your goals, past treatment (if any), mental health needs, and overall stability. If you would benefit from a higher level of care before beginning non-residential treatment, we’ll discuss that with you, including options like our short-term rehab, emergency rehab admission, or inpatient programs.

We’re here to offer honest guidance, not pressure. Whether outpatient is your first step or your next one, the program will be tailored to fit your story, not someone else’s.

Is outpatient rehab suitable for someone who has relapsed?

Yes. Outpatient care can be especially valuable after a relapse. We understand how difficult it can be to return to recovery after a setback. You may feel ashamed, frustrated, or discouraged. But relapse is not failure. It’s a call for more support, not less.

Our outpatient program is designed to meet people where they are, including those who have:

  • Completed rehab in the past but lost connection to ongoing support
  • Recently relapsed and want to stabilise while staying engaged in life
  • Started recovery on their own and now want structured, non-residential care

We focus on building accountability, rebuilding confidence, and addressing the root causes of relapse, all while helping you stay connected to work, family, and community. There’s no wrong time to return. What matters is that you’re here now.
