Northbound Treatment Services

About Us

Northbound Treatment Services, founded in 1988, is based in Southern California and offers a full continuum of care including detox, gender-specific residential, outpatient, support, family and alumni programs. Accredited by the Joint Commission, Northbound meets the highest quality standards for behavioral health and client care. The mission at Northbound Treatment Services is to assist their clients in celebrating one year of continuous sobriety. Northbound applies evidence-based therapies within their innovative In Vivo (or in life) model of treatment. This model empowers clients with appropriate opportunities to experience the joys, challenges, stresses and successes of real life while in our supportive treatment environment. Through this approach, Northbound clients realize that they do have the strength and skills necessary to make positive choices and foster lasting change. Gradual and intentional exposure to real life experiences eases the transition back into society, helping clients build self-efficacy and confidence, and enabling them to develop a fulfilling and sustainable lifestyle of recovery
