Outpatient Programs That Fit Around Your Life

We offer two levels of structured outpatient care, flexible enough to work around your schedule, intensive enough to make a real difference.

πŸŒ…

Part-Time Day Treatment

Our Part-Time Day Treatment program meets 3–4 days per week and is designed for people who need structured clinical support while keeping up with work, family, and daily life. It’s one of the most flexible and effective levels of care available.

β˜€οΈ

Full-Time Day Treatment

Our Full-Time Day Treatment program runs 5 days per week and provides the most intensive level of outpatient care, ideal for people stepping down from inpatient treatment or who need more daily structure.

🧠

Mental Health Treatment

We provide specialized outpatient care for depression, anxiety, trauma, and other mental health conditions, including integrated care when mental health and addiction co-occur.

πŸ”„

Dual Diagnosis

Most people who struggle with addiction also deal with an underlying mental health condition. Our dual diagnosis program treats both at the same time, because addressing only one rarely leads to lasting recovery.

πŸ‘₯

Group Therapy

Peer-supported group therapy sessions led by licensed clinicians are a core part of every program we offer. Many clients say the group experience is one of the most meaningful parts of their recovery.

πŸ’Š

Addiction Treatment

We offer evidence-based outpatient addiction treatment for alcohol, opioids, cocaine, and other substances, with medication-assisted treatment (MAT) coordination when appropriate.

Why Families in Milford Choose Brave Path Recovery

Brave Path Recovery was built around a simple idea: people deserve addiction and mental health treatment that actually fits their lives. That means flexible scheduling, a location close to home, and a clinical team that treats you as a whole person, not just a diagnosis.

Our licensed clinicians specialize in integrated care, which means we treat mental health and substance use disorders together when they co-occur. This approach is backed by research and leads to significantly better long-term outcomes than treating each condition separately. Learn more about our clinical team or about our approach.

Built from Lived Experience

Brave Path Recovery was born from loss, love, and a deep conviction that people deserve better. Our founder, Damien Trites, started this program inspired by the memory of the mother of his son. Her life and her struggles shaped his understanding of addiction in a way no textbook ever could.

That experience is why we do things differently here. We do not treat people as diagnoses. We do not run people through a system. We walk alongside them, one step at a time, on their own brave path.

Recovery is not just about stopping. It is about rebuilding. Mind, body, and spirit. We believe transformation is possible for every single person who walks through our door, and we show up every day to prove it.

Common Questions About Getting Help
