Adult DARP in Pleasanton
The Adult DARP is a 16-week outpatient program designed for all adults including those with limited funds, DUI charges and co-occurring mental health needs. Clients participate in small groups three times per week for 90-minute sessions, focusing on education, peer support, and personalized treatment planning.
The program emphasizes a compassionate, community-oriented approach. It's designed to help clients understand the addiction and recovery process while building practical relapse prevention skills.
The Path Through Treatment
Clients in the Adult DARP follow a clear, structured journey. First, they'll complete a comprehensive evaluation to create a personalized treatment plan. Then, they'll actively engage in the 16-week primary phase with regular group sessions and individual counseling as needed. Skill-building classes focus on addiction, coping strategies, and managing co-occurring issues.
Once clients complete the program, aftercare support includes a transition to relapse prevention services including small group and individual sessions for up to a year. Clients are also connected to community resources and alumni support for sustained recovery.
Wider Services and Accessible Payment
Beyond Adult DARP, Axis offers teen drug and alcohol programs (Teen DARP), DUI services, dual diagnosis support, and integrated mental health and medical care. Payment is designed to be accessible. The program accepts Medi-Cal, Medicare and private insurance and offers a sliding fee scale based on income.
