4 /5 Laure Borgerding: My son recently completed an 8 week outpatient program (3 nights a week for 3 hours) for alcohol and substance abuse. Although he still is struggling with sobriety, the program was a positive experience for him and he learned a lot about what it will take to lead a life without alcohol. Other people there had drug addiction issues but the program covers it all. The cost seemed reasonable especially compared to 30 day inpatient programs which can run over $30K. Barbara was the main evening counselor and my son seemed to like and respect her knowledge and professionalism.
