Outpatient Treatment With Medical and Counseling Services
New Directions delivers outpatient care for substance use and co-occurring mental health conditions. The clinic serves children, adolescents, and adults, offering evaluations, individual, group, and family counseling, relapse prevention planning, and medications for addiction treatment (MAT). On-site health services include medical screenings and testing for HIV, Hepatitis B and C, TB, and other conditions. Telehealth appointments add flexibility for those balancing daily responsibilities.
Family-Focused and Trauma-Informed Care
Believing that recovery involves the whole family, New Directions integrates trauma-informed counseling with relapse prevention and family sessions. The program is designed to support clients coping with trauma, intimate partner violence, HIV/AIDS, and justice system involvement, creating a safe and inclusive environment that promotes long-term stability.
Flexible and Accessible Program Options
The clinic reduces barriers to care with evening and weekend hours, transportation assistance, and Spanish-language services. Specialized offerings include gender-specific groups, DWI evaluations and treatment, and a smoke- and vape-free environment. A sliding-fee scale and other payment assistance options help ensure affordability.
Community-Based Recovery Supports
Beyond clinical services, New Directions connects clients to resources that strengthen recovery in daily life. Recovery coaching, peer support, housing services, vocational training, and employment counseling provide a foundation for independence. The program also addresses gambling and other behavioral addictions, offers overdose education and naloxone distribution, and includes structured aftercare planning to support lasting recovery.

Across the site, our team has conducted over 1,000 pre-admissions calls to better understand the patient experience, interviewed facility clinical leaders, performed facility background checks, and compared our information against trusted public data sources.
Our research process begins with data from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), accrediting bodies including The Joint Commission and CARF, government licensing agencies, and other trusted sources. From there, our team conducts significant original research, including:
- Pre-admissions calls: We speak with admissions staff to get a candid picture of patient experience.
- Background checks: We review complaints from past clients, media reports, actions taken by accrediting bodies, and positive recognition from notable organizations.
- Clinical interviews: We have in-depth conversations with clinical leadership, often lasting up to one hour, that give us a better understanding of clinical care.
- Data partnerships: We ingest and analyze exclusive data that provides information about in-network insurance status, cost, and more.
Research varies by facility. Each facility profile shows which research steps we completed and when each step was last performed. Learn more about our research process and background checks.
How we evaluate treatment facilities
These data help us develop a Trust Score for each facility—a simple letter grade that helps you assess how much confidence to place in a facility based on the information available to us. Trust Score considers accreditation, operating history, notable recognition, and concerns identified during our background check. Our Trust Score is an objective rating that is never influenced by advertiser payment. Learn more about our Trust Score methodology.
Important disclaimer
We cannot guarantee the quality of treatment at any facility. We cannot independently confirm the accuracy of every data point, and some information may become outdated or change over time. A Trust Score is a starting point, not a guarantee of treatment quality or outcomes. Please contact us if you would like to update or correct facility information.
