About EXIS Recovery
If someone is struggling with alcohol, substance use, or mental-health challenges, the disruption of a residential facility might feel like too much. Exis’ outpatient programs offer a way to pursue the same recovery goals without stepping away from work, school, or home and family. Located in West Los Angeles, Exis provides flexible day or evening PHP and IOP programs, along with highly interactive virtual sessions designed to fit each person’s schedule rather than disrupt it.
Tune In to What Really Matters Again
Exis Recovery helps clients recalibrate in a world reshaped by technology and constant change—where self-medicating with substances, depression and anxiety are increasingly common. In an AI-driven age where identity and purpose can feel blurred, many individuals find themselves overwhelmed and anxious. By addressing the layers beneath these struggles, Exis blends evidence-based therapies with mindfulness, movement, systems work, and purpose-driven exploration.
Rest Easy in a Place that Gets It
During PHP days, clients share relaxed, nourishing lunches in this inviting space—a place to catch their breath between therapy sessions. There are tables for gathering, puzzles and quiet corners to simply be with others who understand. Located in beautiful West Los Angeles, the facility sits in a neighborhood that’s both peaceful and accessible, offering respite from everyday stress while keeping connected to city life.
Turn Progress into a Way of Life
Even after completing PHP or IOP, the journey doesn’t end. At Exis, clients always have ongoing connection with their therapist, with the option for weekly individual counseling to keep building momentum. They can continue to participate in group sessions for support, and if a relapse happens, staff helps coordinate next steps. The majority of clients stay with maintenance therapy for as long as they need.
