Who We Treat

Self-Referred Professionals

Physicians, attorneys, executives, and other professionals who recognize they need help and want treatment from a practice that understands the pressures and privacy concerns unique to their situation.

Family Referrals

We frequently hear from concerned family members: adult children worried about a parent's drinking, or parents worried about an adult child's substance use.

Our clinical team will speak with you to understand the situation, then work to engage your loved one in a screening conversation. We treat patients who are willing to enter care; we do not conduct interventions on unwilling individuals.

Our Approach

Intensive Outpatient Structure

Treatment intensity is tailored to each case. For higher-acuity situations, this may include daily remote monitoring via Soberlink or SobrSafe devices, frequent check-ins with clinical staff, and multiple weekly appointments. This level of structure, previously available only in residential settings, allows many patients to remain outpatient while maintaining the accountability necessary for recovery.

Team-Based Care

Treatment plans are built around your specific needs and may include medical management with Dr. Abramson, individual psychotherapy with Dr. Kelly Yi or Orion Harris LMFT, and coordination with outside providers when appropriate. All treatment plans include an in-person medical component, though some services are provided via telemedicine.

24/7 Availability

Our clinical team is available around the clock for urgent situations.

Individual and group psychotherapy

Remote monitoring (Soberlink, SobrSafe)

For Licensed Professionals Facing Board Requirements

If you are a licensed professional (physician, nurse, attorney, or other) who requires a substance use evaluation for a licensing board, regulatory body, or legal matter, we offer independent evaluations separate from treatment services.

"I started with a small solo medical practice, a style of practicing medicine like my grandfather and great-grandfather did, focusing on the patient and applying great attention to detail. As we grow, we're maintaining this commitment to quality, ethics and the doctor-patient relationship."
