About Alternative Services Inc

Alternative Services is a drug and alcohol addiction treatment center for adults. They offer outpatient treatment services in Porterville, California.

Porterville is a city of just over 60,000 people at the base of the Sierra Nevada Foothills. The city is a "Gateway to the Sequoias" for its close access to national forests and a historic downtown. Located in the San Joaquin Valley, you have access to numerous parks that provide outdoor relaxation during your rehabilitation.

Evidence Based Treatment Options

The facility provides evidence based counseling services that incorporate a 12 Step treatment approach. They use trauma related counseling, recognizing that many times substance abuse is triggered by traumatic events in your past. They also offer counseling for anger management and include relapse prevention planning in your discharge program.

They will accept you into the program if you are on a methadone medication treatment plan to help support your sobriety. They have specialized addiction treatment programs for individuals who have experienced intimate partner violence or domestic violence.

Programs for Those in the Criminal Justice System

I like that they also offer programs for individuals who are involved with the justice system after a charge of driving under the influence or driving while intoxicated. They offer programs that meet court requirements that help you get your driver's license back once you've completed the necessary rehabilitation.

I’m also impressed that they offer simultaneous treatment for mental health disorders to reduce the risk of relapse. Treatment services are offered in Spanish and sign language for those who are deaf or hard of hearing.
