About Windward Way Recovery Newport Beach
Windward Way Recovery is a licensed addiction recovery facility located in Newport Beach, California. Established in 2008, it offers a full range of services for adult clients who are dealing with substance use disorders involving alcohol, prescription medications, illicit drugs, and related behavioral compulsions. The center is authorized by the California Department of Healthcare Services and is accredited by both CARF and The Joint Commission. Windward Way provides detox, residential treatment, outpatient care, and intensive outpatient services through several programs across Orange County.
The program begins with medically monitored detox for alcohol and a range of substances, including opioids, stimulants, benzodiazepines, cocaine, and meth. After detox, clients transition into individualized treatment plans that may include one-on-one counseling, group therapy, 12-step support, trauma-focused work, and additional holistic options such as meditation and fitness. Windward Way also includes support for families and help with career or academic needs, along with transitional planning that may include movement into sober living. Care is offered in a gender-specific format, supported by aftercare resources designed to reduce relapse risk.
The overall model focuses on building community, strengthening connections, creating structure, and restoring purpose. A multidisciplinary team of physicians, therapists, and counselors delivers treatment, and many staff members bring personal recovery experience. Windward Way works with many private insurance plans, provides flexible payment choices, and offers a confidential 24/7 admissions hotline for assessments.
