About Release Recovery Outpatient
Release Recovery redefines recovery for people facing substance use—guided by a founder in long-term recovery and a team of clinicians and peers with lived experience. They meet clients where they are with day (PHP) treatment that pairs daytime or evening treatment with community housing, an intensive outpatient program (IOP) with 12 hours of weekly on-site programming, and a step-down outpatient track.
Build a Second Family at Release Recovery
At Release, healing begins in the body and unfolds into community. They use a gentle form of therapy that helps people understand how things that happened early in life still shape how they feel and react today. One moment, clients may be doing a breathing or movement exercise to calm the nervous system, the next they meet with a one-on-one therapist to talk through patterns that keep showing up, and later they practice life skills in small groups where others cheer them on.
The on-site physician conducts initial assessments and oversees medication management, including medication-assisted treatment, which many clients rely on. And most importantly, the people that clients are surrounded by become a second family and make recovery feel hopeful and fun.
Enjoy Westchester’s Comfort and Calm
Stepping into Release’s Westchester clinic feels like walking into a calm, well-designed home—with daylight, plants, and comfy seating that invites clients to breathe and open up. Their upscale transitional housing for men has awake overnight staff, case managers, and medication management if necessary, so clients get safety, comfort, and structure.
Experience Human-Centered Aftercare Support
Aftercare at Release keeps recovery real and human with weekly alumni zoom meetings, daily breathalyzer checks, and weekly case manager sessions. Clients have plenty of low-pressure chances to stay in the neighborhood—they’re encouraged to drop by the house, grab coffee, or come to the big alumni barbecue where everyone is welcome.

Who We Treat

Professionals
Busy, high-ranking professionals get the personalized treatment they need with greater accommodations for work, privacy, and outside communication.
Approaches
Family Involvement
Providers involve family in the treatment of their loved one through family therapy, visits, or both–because addiction is a family disease.
Gender-Specific
Separate treatment for men or women can create strong peer connections and remove barriers related to trauma, shame, and gender-specific nuances.
Individual Treatment
Individual care meets the needs of each patient, using personalized treatment to provide them the most relevant care and greatest chance of success.

Expressive Arts
Creative processes like art, writing, or dance use inner creative desires to help boost confidence, emotional growth, and initiate change.
