Outpatient Program Structure and Schedule
Living Free Health Services designs their outpatient program around the real-world needs of people in recovery. Operating Monday through Thursday from 3-7 PM, this schedule accommodates individuals maintaining employment, education, or family responsibilities while engaging in addiction treatment.
The outpatient program format allows participants to apply recovery skills in their daily environment while receiving consistent professional support.

Trauma-Informed Addiction Treatment Approach
Trauma-informed care distinguishes Living Free Health Services within the Northern Virginia recovery community. This specialized approach recognizes how traumatic experiences often contribute to substance abuse patterns and can complicate the recovery process.
The comprehensive therapy model addresses both addiction and underlying trauma simultaneously, rather than treating these issues separately. This integrated approach proves particularly valuable for individuals whose substance abuse developed as a coping mechanism for past traumatic experiences, creating a more complete foundation for long-term recovery.
Serving LGBTQ+ Individuals in Recovery
