What Is Outpatient Drug Treatment?
Outpatient addiction treatment is a lower level of care designed for individuals experiencing substance use challenges who do not require 24/7 supervision.

- Receive structured treatment and support
At Umbrella Wellness Center, our outpatient program combines:
- Individual counseling
- Group therapy
- Flexible day or nighttime scheduling
What Is Court-Ordered Drug Treatment?
Court-ordered drug treatment occurs when a judge requires an individual to participate in a substance use treatment program as part of a legal case.
This is often used:
- Instead of, or in addition to, jail time
- Alongside probation or other legal conditions
- To reduce other legal penalties or charges
- For DUI’s, DWI’s, theft, possession, and other drug-related charges
Courts typically recommend this option when substance use is identified as a contributing factor in criminal behavior. The goal is not just punishment—but addressing the root cause of the issue, helping individuals recover and reduce the likelihood of future offenses.
Is Outpatient Treatment Right for Me or Someone I Know?
A drug and alcohol assessment is be used to determine the appropriate level of care. Outpatient treatment is generally best suited for individuals who:
◾️ Have mild to moderate substance use symptoms
◾️ Do not require round-the-clock supervision
◾️ Are motivated to make changes in their lives
When approved by the court, outpatient care is often an attractive option because it allows for:
- Greater flexibility and independence
- The ability to remain active in daily life
Judges are more likely to approve outpatient treatment when an individual can demonstrate:
- A stable and structured living environment
- A genuine commitment to recovery
Successfully completing a treatment program may result in:
- Reduced charges
- Probation instead of incarceration
- Case dismissal in some situations
In some cases, a judge may require a higher level of care first, such as:
- In-patient treatment
- Partial hospitalization
- Residential programs
For those who need additional stability, we also offer supplemental recovery housing, providing a safe and structured living environment to support long-term success.
