About Nexus Recovery Services

The Nexus Recovery Services center is located in Los Angeles, California. This facility offers multiple comprehensive recovery services to adults battling with drug and alcohol abuse and co-occurring disorders. Each service is focused on providing individualized care as it is a center that believes that no standardized drug treatment meets each person's needs. Services offered by this center include inpatient, partial hospitalization, outpatient, and aftercare programs.

The partial hospitalization program is specifically for patients who are prone to relapse or are new to recovery. While you are given customized treatment plans, the Nexus Recovery Services center still provides a structured environment and programming that you will need to meet to better your chances at recovery.

Whether you are enrolled in an inpatient or outpatient program at this center, you can expect to participate in individual therapy at least twice a week. This will give you a private and reassuring space to talk about your addiction and develop recovery goals. You may also need to attend 18 to 25 weekly group therapy sessions and recreational group outings to help build up sober skills to move back into society.

Another program they offer is their outpatient program, designed for patients transitioning from a higher level of care and requiring a more flexible schedule that accommodates minimal daily obligations. When entering the program, you may receive services such as case management and be assigned a primary therapist and a double-board-certified psychiatrist if needed.

Then there is the Nexus Recovery Services aftercare program, which really gives you the support you need to maintain sobriety. When you enroll in their aftercare recovery program, you will be provided with a sober mentor who will help support you outside of the treatment facility. Additionally, the aftercare program requires you to partake in the alumni program, which keeps you in contact with a community of past recoveries and staff, which many have found to be beneficial.

Medical briefcase icon Levels of Care

car-building iconOutpatient

Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.

house-medical iconIntensive Outpatient

Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) are for those who want or need a very structured treatment program but who also wish to live at home and continue with certain responsibilities (such as work or school). IOP substance abuse treatment programs vary in duration and intensity, and certain outpatient rehab centers will offer individualized treatment programs.

hospital iconPartial Hospitalization Program

A partial hospitalization program (PHP) is a short-term form of intensive rehab, usually for those with acute symptoms that are hard to manage but don’t require 24-hour care. PHPs have structured programming (i.e. individual and/or group therapy), and usually meet 3-5 days a week for around 6 hours (i.e. 9am-3m). Some PHPs are residential (patients sleep on site) and some are not, so patients sleep at home. PHPs can last from 1-6 months, and some offer transportation and meals.

book-medical icon12-Step

12-step programs are addiction recovery models based on Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). A number of substance abuse programs (including some drug and alcohol rehab centers) use the 12 steps as a basis for treatment. Beginning steps involve admitting powerlessness over the addiction and creating a spiritual basis for recovery. Middle steps including making direct amends to those who've been hurt by the addiction, and the final step is to assist others in addiction recovery in the same way. 12-Step offshoots including Narcotics Anonymous (NA), Cocaine Anonymous (CA), Dual Recovery Anonymous (DRA), Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous (SLAA) and Gamblers Anonymous (GA).

house-medical iconAftercare Support

Completing a drug or alcohol rehab program shouldn't spell the end of substance abuse treatment. Aftercare involves making a sustainable plan for recovery, including ongoing support. This can include sober living arrangements like halfway houses, career counseling, and setting a patient up with community programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA).

Heart icon Treatment

book iconAlcoholism

The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.

prescription iconDrug Addiction

Drug rehab in California teaches participants constructive ways to stay clean and sober. Treatment revolves around helping individuals stop using the substance they are addicted to and learn healthy habits to avoid relapse.

head-side-medical iconDual Diagnosis

Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.

file-medical iconMental Health and Substance Abuse

A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.

prescription-bottle-pill iconOpioid Addiction

Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.

Hand holding medical sign icon Clinical Services

Experiential Therapy

Experiential therapy is a form of therapy in which clients are encouraged to surface and work through subconscious issues by engaging in real-time experiences. Experiential therapy departs from traditional talk therapy by involving the body, and having clients engage in activities, movements, and physical and emotional expression. This can involve role-play or using props (which can include other people). Experiential therapy can help people process trauma, memories, and emotion quickly, deeply, and in a lasting fashion, leading to substantial and impactful healing.

Family Therapy

Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.

Fitness Therapy

Fitness therapy blends exercise with psychotherapy for a fun, inspiring, and effective way of treating addiction and other issues. By incorporating movement into counseling sessions, clients become more empowered, motivated, and goal-oriented, all while strengthening their bodies and becoming more flexible. Fitness Therapy is usually used to complement a course of treatment (inpatient or outpatient) to make it even more successful. Increasing the connection between a patient’s mind and body helps both with healing as well as in creating new, healthy habits.

Group Therapy

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.

Individual Therapy

In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.

Life Skills

Life skills trainings involve all the skills a person must have in order to function successfully in the world. These include time management, career guidance, money management, and effective communication. Truly successful addiction recovery is based on the ability to not only live substance-free, but to thrive. Life skills teaches the practical necessities of functioning in society, which sets clients up for success in life, and therefore sobriety.

Motivational Interviewing

Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a clinical approach to helping people with substance abuse issues and other conditions shift behavior in positive ways. It is more goal-oriented than traditional psychotherapy, as MI counselors directly attempt to get clients to consider making behavioral change (rather than wait for them to come to conclusions themselves). Its primary purpose is to resolve ambivalence and help clients become able to make healthy choices freely.

Nutrition Therapy

Nutrition therapy, aka medical nutrition therapy (MNT), is a way of treating physical, emotional, and medical conditions through diet. Specific dietary plans are designed by professional nutritionists or registered dietitians, and patients follow them in order to positively affect their physical and mental health.

Rational Behavior Therapy

Rational Behavior Therapy (RBT) is a form of cognitive behavioral therapy meant to be short-term and comprehensive. It was intended to help clients become more self-sufficent and move forward without the need for expensive, ongoing therapy. It includes an emotional self-help method called “rational self-counseling,” the purpose of which is to give clients all the skills needed to handle future emotional issues by themselves, or with significantly less professional help.

If you are like me, you have been tirelessly researching online or calling various sober living facilities - feeling heartbroken, lost, desperate, and confused - all while facing a decision which would directly impact the livelihood of a loved one. No pressure, right? My family member had just completed rehab outside of Los Angeles and needed a sober living facility with good and honest people to help them adjust back to real life. All I knew at this point in my search is what I wanted for them. I was looking for a sober living facility where they would have focus on the program, be given the direction and guidance of counselors with care, be introduced to meetings around LA, all leading up to the goal of steering them back to a healthy and positive life. The real (and scary) answer is these places are hard to come by. I unfortunately saw that first-hand. Now to get to why I NEEDED to write this review. Nexus. 5 letters that make up a word I want to shout from the rooftops with such profound gratitude. Yes, my family member chose to do the work, take it seriously, make it a priority in their life, but it is also about who you surround yourself with. Nexus gave my family member a community bringing people into our lives which have changed it for the better. Nexus gave my family member counseling which has opened them up to realizing their true potential without the need of drugs or alcohol they are just grateful to be walking in their shoes sober. And one of the most important attributes of Nexus you may ask? Those that run the program. Halim, Johnnie, Rob, and Dano. I will never forget the first night I talked to Halim. And I say talked as if it was only one time. We spoke at least 10 times and he was a savior. He picked my family member up from somewhere where they were drowning and brought them to the Playa house. I was in a different state and was powerless but Halim was there. How could I have been more fortunate? I am forever indebted to the people that work at the Playa house (house manager, supervisors, techs, case managers, drivers) and the program Nexus has brought to our lives. Nothing is more important to me then family, and Nexus gave me my family back.

I was stumbling around the barren wasteland of treatment centers desperate enough to buy the guise of empathetic adversaries stating they care for you promising water and nourishment only to be a mirage in the futile landscape (south Florida).So I showed up on a rainy day in Los Angeles and was greeted by great staff, met my therapist Melissa (amazing person and professional) and started group therapy. Delena, a group therapist at Nexus, is a god send and at this point I believe she might literally be an Earth Angel that brings light to all of the darkness that we think we believe when we get sober.I started to have hope for my future and felt like the impossible was now possible. Somewhere in the mix I met Kurt (another group therapist) I don t know what exactly he does or how he does it... but he changed my life because I was always seeking answers to questions unattainable or that others never had the capacity to answer... but the best way to talk about Kurt is to not talk about Kurt and let people experience spirituality on THEIR terms!All the staff is wonderful shout out to UA Nick.Big Jeff will help you with all of your outside stuff legal, work ect but also knows what he is talking about in recovery and in spirituality. Halim Daniel is the go to guy for pretty much anything. He holds his staff just as accountable as the clients.Lastly, I d recommend this place for anyone serious about recovery. The best testimony comes from clients and past members and what stands out to me is that a lot of past members are still sober or clean. We are all pretty close too. If you are fed up with the treatment industry I understand how you Feel. There is real solution and hope here and more than that to me is the amount of love

When my 19 year old son completed residential treatment I began the search for an outpatient program that could supplement his sober living. From the very first phone call to Nexus I knew we had found the right place. The initial contact was loving, warm, and encouraging which was exactly what I needed in those early days of his sobriety.Over the course of his seven months at Nexus those same traits from that first phone call grew and worked magic on my son. I can t know what happened daily or even weekly at Nexus, but I know the changes I saw in my son. The young man he was destined to be was awakened and nurtured by Nexus. They kept me informed along the way and I was able to participate in a wonderful family program weekend.Today my son is in college and living a productive life. We both credit Nexus for providing him the space, support, insight and love he needed to move into this next chapter. I am forever grateful to the staff at Nexus.

Nexus is awesome! Staff is so caring and kind and truly cares about clients and their success. I went here for 6 months and in that time learned more about myself than I ever have before. Their approach to treatment is unlike any other place around and is the reason why I have been successful in my sobriety today. Most treatment centers are solely focused on financial gain and put clients second. Nexus is far from that and puts their clients as a number one priority. Nothing but love for the people at Nexus!

Nexus is not like any of the other outpatients in Los Angeles. They only care about saving your life, not money. Which is rare these days in the treatment world. I worked in treatment for 6 years, relapsed at 8 years and spent 4 years in and out of treatment centers. If I wasn t in treatment I was on the streets. In that four years I went to treatment over 80 times and out of all of them nexus was by far the best. They showed up for me daily with love, kindness and a drive to help me get through whatever I faced in early recovery. I would recommend this place to literally anyone that asks for help.

I don't even know how to "review" Nexus. What they have given to me I cant even put into words. I was at a place where I had no faith that I could be helped from what I was suffering from. They met me with a genuine love and care that I had only seen and felt from my family. Nexus is so different from every other treatment program in a way where I wasn't just viewed as a "client" but as a human being, and I was a part of their family. The staff is so professional and intelligent yet they create an environment that is so comfortable and relaxed. I was taught what I was dealing with in my addiction and was given a safe space to be vulnerable and open up to really have a dialogue and get an understanding on addiction. This place saved my life, I cant express how truly grateful and just blessed that I found them. They are still actively a part of my life and I don't think that will ever change. If you need help, everyone at Nexus wants to give it to you, they are amazing people and have created a special thing there that I hope keeps growing, because they have something that is very rare in this world today, they genuinely care.

Nexus recovery services outpatient program is by far the best I ve ever been to. Fighting addiction for the past 12 years I have been to a lot of intensive outpatient programs over the years and had a variety of experiences but none of them provided the level of comfort, care, and accountability that nexus did for me. All of the staff and clinical team are hardworking, passionate people who are almost all in recovery and provide such a warm experience to their clients. The one on one therapy sessions combined with the varied group topic discussions and field trips provided an experience for me that gave me a foundation to kickstart my journey in recovery that I am forever grateful for. I frequent nexus on a regular basis still to this day because I was given a new family there. I am forever grateful for nexus and harbor sober living will consider everyone there friends and family for the rest of my life.

During his time at Nexus, our son gained so much knowledge, clarity and strength to learn how to manage his addiction.As a parent, it was so reassuring to know that our son was in a place where the staff that were managing his care and the entire program, knew how to implement effective treatment strategies and also show love, compassion, and support.Because we wanted to be confident about the treatment program and the people we were entrusting our son with, we did a fair amount of research before we chose Nexus. There are plenty of places that will take your money, but a very few places that will provide quality treatment, in inspiring surroundings, with people that know what they are doing and really care about the people that need their help.I give my son plenty of credit for the work that he put in, but he would not have known how to reach the place he is now, without the support and guidance he got at Nexus. I will be forever grateful to all of the people there that helped him get his life back.

I can t express in words what is truly in my heart in regards to Nexus Recovery Services.Mental illness /Substance Abuse Disorder doesn t just affect the person with the disease but the whole family. Nexus Recovery Services has been extremely effective with the type of treatment they provide for their clients. They give a very high level of care driven by self-less LOVE. Their experienced staff genuinely cares for the well being, healing, and recovery of all of their clients and it shows in their everyday interaction with the clients, their families and each other.They treat everyone with love and respect in an environment that is safe, non -judgmental, forgiving, and loving. They are a family and include YOU in that family and make you feel wanted, valued, and loved. After one year of treatment, my son is in a very stable and joyful place and so is our family thanks to Nexus.Nexus has taught our son many skills and given him the tools needed to live a sober and successful life. He now has more self-esteem with much hope for a brighter future. Johnnie and Melissa are wonderful!Recovery is possible with Nexus Recovery Services. They never give up on the clients even if the clients give up on themselves.My son has formed a bond with everyone at Nexus which has instilled many lasting friendships for years to come.Nexus, may you continue to shine your LIGHT to overcome the darkness. God bless you all and the wonderful work you are doing to make a positive difference in peoples lives. Thank you Johnnie, for your constant dedication, tremendous discipline, loving heart and devoted spirit.

Nexus is an excellent program with a well qualified and compassionate staff, many of whom are in recovery themselves and as such have great insight into what it takes to recover from alcoholism and drug addiction. I have been to plenty of excellent rehabs but I think my experience at nexus was one of the best I ve had. Coming up on one year sober I have to express my gratitude to nexus and the people there for all they have done for me on this path. I would highly recommend this program to anyone concerned with a drinking or drug problem

This place has helped restore the broken person that I was when I came into their program 6 months ago. I ve never had more ethical and legitimate treatment anywhere, and I ve been to more treatment centers than anyone should endure. If it weren t for Nexus and Alchemy and their staff, i might not be alive, certainly not sober. I can t express enough gratitude towards everyone on staff and the owners of nexus. Thank you all and love you dearly
