Release Recovery Outpatient

Release Recovery redefines recovery for people facing substance use—guided by a founder in long-term recovery and a team of clinicians and peers with lived experience. They meet clients where they are with day (PHP) treatment that pairs daytime or evening treatment with community housing, an intensive outpatient program (IOP) with 12 hours of weekly on-site programming, and a step-down outpatient track.
At Release, healing begins in the body and unfolds into community. They use a gentle form of therapy that helps people understand how things that happened early in life still shape how they feel and react today. One moment, clients may be doing a breathing or movement exercise to calm the nervous system, the next they meet with a one-on-one therapist to talk through patterns that keep showing up, and later they practice life skills in small groups where others cheer them on.
The on-site physician conducts initial assessments and oversees medication management, including medication-assisted treatment, which many clients rely on. And most importantly, the people that clients are surrounded by become a second family and make recovery feel hopeful and fun.
Stepping into Release’s Westchester clinic feels like walking into a calm, well-designed home—with daylight, plants, and comfy seating that invites clients to breathe and open up. Their upscale transitional housing for men has awake overnight staff, case managers, and medication management if necessary, so clients get safety, comfort, and structure.
Aftercare at Release keeps recovery real and human with weekly alumni zoom meetings, daily breathalyzer checks, and weekly case manager sessions. Clients have plenty of low-pressure chances to stay in the neighborhood—they’re encouraged to drop by the house, grab coffee, or come to the big alumni barbecue where everyone is welcome.

Evidence-Based Context: According to SAMHSA's National Survey on Drug Use and Health (2023), approximately 48.7 million Americans aged 12 or older had a substance use disorder in the past year. The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) emphasizes that treatment programs combining behavioral therapy with medication-assisted approaches show the highest rates of sustained recovery. Facilities like Release Recovery Outpatient provide structured pathways to evidence-based care. Sources: SAMHSA NSDUH 2023, NIDA Principles of Drug Addiction Treatment (4th Ed.)

Choosing the right treatment facility is one of the most important decisions in the recovery journey. Research published by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) shows that treatment duration, therapeutic approach, and aftercare planning are the three strongest predictors of long-term sobriety.

Release Recovery Outpatient offers 3 distinct levels of care, allowing patients to step through treatment intensities as they progress. This continuum-of-care model — moving from higher to lower intensity — is recommended by SAMHSA as the gold standard for addiction treatment.

The facility utilizes 9 evidence-based therapeutic modalities. According to NIDA research, combination therapy approaches that integrate behavioral interventions (such as 1-on-1 Counseling and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) with holistic support show significantly improved outcomes compared to single-modality programs.

Under the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act, most commercial insurance plans are required to cover substance abuse treatment.
