Confidential Call
Reach out by phone or online form. Our admissions counselors listen to your story, answer questions, and help determine the right level of care — all completely confidential.
Insurance Verification
We contact your insurance provider directly to verify coverage, explain your benefits, and outline any out-of‑pocket costs so there are no surprises.
Clinical Assessment
A licensed clinician conducts a thorough pre-admission assessment using evidence-based tools including motivational interviewing to understand your medical history, substance use patterns, mental health needs, and treatment goals.
Travel & Arrival
We coordinate travel logistics including airport pickup, and prepare your private room. Our team greets you personally upon arrival at our Huntington Beach facility.
Welcome & Intake
On your first day, you'll meet your treatment team, complete medical intake, receive psychoeducation about your treatment plan, tour the facility, and settle into your private suite. Evidence-based treatment begins immediately with trauma-informed care principles guiding every interaction.
Clinical Excellence From Day One
Your treatment begins the moment you arrive. Our clinical team utilizes evidence-based therapeutic modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), trauma-informed therapy, motivational interviewing, and relapse prevention strategies. Every client receives individualized treatment planning based on comprehensive assessment and ongoing clinical evaluation.
Sober Living Support After Treatment
Recovery doesn't end on discharge day. New Existence works with a trusted sober living referral partner to help you transition into a structured, supportive home environment after completing your program. Your care team will discuss this option with you during treatment and coordinate a warm handoff — so you leave with a clear plan, not just a discharge summary.
