How we help
Virtual IOP across OC
No evening IOP groups at Garden Grove or Newport Beach. HomeBound is the IOP level for California residents.
Intensive outpatient program (IOP) at Northbound is delivered through HomeBound — secure telehealth with the clinical intensity of in-person IOP, without a daily drive to Orange County. For Orange County, CA residents, that means structured recovery while living at home, working, or attending school.
Northbound does not operate in-person IOP at Garden Grove, Newport Beach, or any campus. If you are comparing IOP programs in Orange County, ask whether treatment is on-site or telehealth — our answer for California is HomeBound virtual IOP exclusively.
HomeBound includes weekly groups, individual therapy, family sessions, and psychiatric support as clinically indicated. Many clients enter after PHP or residential; others start IOP directly when assessment shows outpatient intensity is appropriate.
Dual-diagnosis treatment continues online — anxiety, depression, PTSD, and trauma are addressed alongside substance use with the same standards as our on-site programs. If symptoms escalate, step-up to Garden Grove residential or Newport PHP remains available within Northbound.
We are DHCS licensed #300661CP, Joint Commission accredited, and in-network with 15+ major insurance plans. Call (866) 311-0003 — admissions is available 24/7 for Orange County families.

Local context
Skip the 405 commute — keep OC roots
After PHP in Newport, HomeBound lets clients live in their OC city without daily freeway drives during rush hour.
Dual-diagnosis therapy continues online for anxiety, trauma, and mood disorders common in our county referrals.
Step-up to Garden Grove residential or Newport PHP remains available if acuity increases.
Orange County families often ask how Northbound differs from other providers — we concentrate on-site detox and residential at one Garden Grove campus, PHP at Newport Beach, and virtual IOP statewide rather than spreading thin across many small sites.
