Positive Steps Inc.: A Path to Lasting Recovery in Lakewood, CA

Positive Steps Inc., located at 5230 North Clark Avenue in Lakewood, CA, is a dedicated facility committed to providing comprehensive and compassionate care for individuals struggling with substance use disorders. Understanding that the journey to sobriety is deeply personal, Positive Steps offers a structured, holistic approach designed to address the physical, mental, and emotional facets of addiction. Our mission is to empower clients with the tools and resilience needed not just to overcome dependency, but to build a stable, fulfilling life in recovery.

Our Core Treatment Philosophy

We believe effective addiction treatment must be tailored to the individual. Our programs are built upon evidence-based practices combined with therapeutic support that encourages deep self-exploration and skill development. Treatment plans are highly individualized, ensuring that each client receives the most appropriate level of care, whether they require intensive residential support or flexible outpatient services.

Comprehensive Services Offered

Positive Steps provides a continuum of care designed to support clients at every stage of their recovery journey. Our clinical team consists of licensed therapists, medical professionals, and support staff dedicated to maintaining a safe and nurturing environment.

  • Medically Supervised Detoxification: A safe, comfortable start to recovery, managed by medical professionals.
  • Residential Treatment: Immersive, structured environment providing 24/7 support and intensive therapy.
  • Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP): A structured day treatment option for clients who require high levels of care but can return home in the evenings.
  • Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP): Flexible treatment allowing clients to balance recovery with work or family commitments.
  • Aftercare Planning and Alumni Support: Essential resources to maintain long-term sobriety, including relapse prevention education and support groups.

Therapeutic Modalities

Our approach integrates proven therapies to help clients understand the root causes of their addiction and develop healthier coping mechanisms. We emphasize accountability, personal growth, and emotional regulation.

Key therapeutic components include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills training, trauma-informed care, and motivational interviewing. Group therapy fosters peer support and shared experiences, while individual counseling ensures focused attention on personal challenges. We also incorporate holistic activities, such as mindfulness and wellness programs, to promote overall well-being.
