Seattle, Washington — Lower Queen Anne / Uptown
Addiction Treatment in Seattle
Northbound's Seattle hub serves Washington state residents with clinical assessments, family support, alumni programming, and alternative sentencing services — connecting Pacific Northwest clients to Northbound's California treatment campuses and ongoing alumni support.
Seattle Assessment & Support Hub
Your Gateway to Recovery
Our Seattle services center is located in the vibrant Lower Queen Anne (Uptown) neighborhood — a walkable community of historic houses and boutique shops, right on Puget Sound and steps from the Space Needle. It's an inspiring, community-rooted setting for taking the first steps toward recovery.
Seattle clients begin with a comprehensive clinical assessment at our local office. For those requiring medically supervised detox or residential treatment, we facilitate a smooth transition to our fully licensed Orange County facilities — where the Southern California environment becomes part of the healing. Clients then step down through PHP and alumni support to complete their continuum of care.
The Seattle Crisis
King County saw 1,312 suspected and confirmed overdose deaths in 2023 — a 16% increase from 2022, and more than double the 2019 figure. Washington state's overdose rate of 32.6 per 100,000 is more than double what it was a decade ago. Northbound is here to help.

Seattle Services
What We Offer in Seattle
Initial Screening & Assessment
A thorough biopsychosocial evaluation by an LCSW or equivalent clinician — reviewing substance history, mental health, family dynamics, and living environment using ASAM Criteria to determine the right level of care.
Dual Diagnosis Assessment
Co-occurring conditions like depression, anxiety, and PTSD are assessed alongside addiction. Our dual diagnosis care addresses both simultaneously for a complete recovery.
Evidence-Based Treatment Planning
Assessment results feed directly into a personalized treatment plan using ASAM dimensions — from withdrawal risk to recovery environment — recommending the right intensity of care.
Family Assessment
We evaluate family dynamics, communication patterns, codependency, and trauma history. Family-inclusive planning supports both the client's recovery and the family's own healing.
Alternative Sentencing
Our Seattle office assists individuals seeking alternatives to incarceration. Community service, probation, house arrest, and rehabilitation programs — focused on accountability and recovery.
Alumni Association
The Northbound Alumni Association Seattle chapter hosts weekly meetings, monthly adventure outings, quarterly celebrations, and ongoing volunteer work — a lifelong recovery community.
Clinical Modalities
Therapies Proven to Work
Whether you receive care in Seattle or at one of our California campuses, the same evidence-based clinical approach applies — personalized to your specific history, substance, and co-occurring conditions.
