About this facility
The Pathway Program is a specialized outpatient program designed for adolescents, teens, and young adults experiencing a substance use disorder, with locations serving Phoenix and surrounding areas in Arizona in addition to Sacramento and Northern California. Their Rocklin, California program offers a personalized treatment experience for clients, blending 1-on-1 evidence-based drug counseling with peer support groups, integrating fun and socialization into the recovery process. Their 6-12 week programs place a strong emphasis on family involvement, incorporating family therapy and parent support groups in addition to long-term aftercare services.
The Pathway Program has over 30 years of experience in working with teens, young adults, and their families using an enthusiastic approach to sobriety. Their program is tailored to address the specific needs and challenges faced by teens ages 13-17, and young adults ages 18-26. Understanding that the decision to try drugs or alcohol comes in large part from teens looking for social acceptance and the desire to have fun, they integrate strong peer support and fun sober activities in their program.
Their intensive outpatient program (IOP) offers daily treatment sessions 5 days per week for 4 hours each day. Young people are grouped with other clients close in age, led by experienced and compassionate certified substance abuse counselors. Each client receives an individually tailored treatment plan to fit their unique circumstances, reviewed and adjusted as needed on a regular basis. Their treatment model is deeply rooted in the principles of the 12-step recovery program, introducing patients to the process with 3 on-site 12-step meetings per week. Additionally, sober social activities are coordinated twice per week to foster peer connection and emphasize the ability to have fun without the use of drugs or alcohol.
In addition to building a strong peer support system, strengthening family relationships, and integrating fun activities, The Pathway Program involves weekly or bi-weekly 1-on-1 therapy sessions. Individual substance abuse counseling provides a safe space for individuals to address topics such as their drug or alcohol use, effects that their use has had on family and relationships, evaluating consequences and potential outcomes, and developing alternative coping mechanisms and life skills. Therapeutic services also include relapse prevention counseling, includes family involvement and provides addiction education.
The Pathway Program uses a family involvement approach to substance abuse treatment for young people and their families. In addition to regular family counseling sessions focused on education and developing effective communication skills, parents are also provided connection with peers through parent support groups. Weekly support group meetings offer a safe community outlet for individuals to come together and work toward a common solution for parents with teens and young adults experiencing addiction.
Families and clients who have completed their 6-14 week treatment program at Pathway have access to robust and extensive aftercare services, at no cost, for up to 2 years. Aftercare services offer young people continued access to Pathway’s alternative peer groups, sober social events, and parent support groups. Clients can also continue working with their individual counselors in 1-on-1 and family therapy sessions. Regular substance abuse support meetings are also available specifically for alumni.
