About Steps Inc
STEPS Inc is a substance use treatment provider serving metropolitan Bakersfield and Kern County, California.
The organization offers outpatient drug-free services and a full range of DUI programs, using ASAM-based assessment to match clients with the right level of care.
STEPS combines deep community roots with modern, compassionate recovery support designed to help people move forward with dignity.
DUI Programs and License Reinstatement
I am impressed that STEPS specializes in court, DMV and probation-referred DUI services including Wet Reckless, first-offender 3, 6 and 9-month tracks, and an 18-month multiple-offender program.
STEPS is also currently providing DUI services to clients under 18, making it a key resource for youth referrals.
Each program begins with a required intake appointment and follows a structured curriculum supporting compliance and license reinstatement requirements.
Outpatient Drug-Free Recovery Services
STEPS offers Level 1.0 outpatient and Level 2.1 intensive outpatient treatment guided by ASAM screening.
Services include counseling, family therapy, crisis intervention, care coordination and discharge planning, with methods like the Matrix Model, Living in Balance, and Seeking Safety.
Counseling can take place in person, by telehealth or by phone, and medication assisted treatment referrals are available when needed.
Amenities
Private drug rehab provides a comfortable, secure environment that allows you to focus on doing the work to get your life back on track. Benefits include a higher staff-to-client ratio, increased one-on-one time with therapists and healthcare providers, private rooms for clients, and customized forms of therapy.
Addiction treatment in the metro area benefits clients by offering seamless connections from the city, around the state, and those seeking out-of-state treatment. Another benefit of attending a metro area drug rehab is that you’re close to major airports and ground transportation services.
Business centers are a preferred amenity in many mental health and addiction recovery facilities and typically feature secure, high-speed internet, computer stations, printers, and related business technologies. Business centers are designed to enable professionals and students to continue to participate in work or school activities without leaving the treatment facility.

Alcohol rehab in California provides professional treatment to guide participants through each step of recovery. Programs offer a support system to walk you through challenges and celebrate victories with you, from detox to long-term sobriety.
Gender-specific addiction treatment programs may be more effective in treating men because they focus on unique needs of males. Men’s rehab in California is designed to help men process emotions and cope with stress in a judgment-free environment.
Women’s rehab in California provides a safe environment where women can work through addiction challenges surrounded by their gender peers. This often creates an environment that is more conducive to recovery.
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.

The focus will be on restructuring attitudes and thoughts to reduce cravings and develop skills to prevent relapse. The length of time in outpatient rehab varies by individual, based on their recovery needs.
