Action Drug Rehabs - Bakersfield Outpatient Services

Positive experience:

Fantastic experience: I would describe my experience with Action IOP like a rollercoaster, all because of my own actions. When I got out of Action Residential I wanted to change my life, but I didn't want to stop using. Because of that, I went in and out of IOP, but never once did the counselors OR the clients judge me. They all excepted me with open arms. There was never judgement in the groups or in individual counseling. I can just speak on my own experience, walking through that door, it's like a sense of acceptance and meditation. The counselors, and clients alike, all just want to see the next person to walk through the door make it; because the disease of addiction is deadly. It was the counselors at Action IOP that helped me see that using really was life or death for me, and that I could live a beautiful life without the influence of drugs. I became so excited for groups that I even attended some 3 months after I graduated! The counselors never let anyone walk through that door without giving them a bit of their time, and they never let anyone exit that door feeling defeated. They all are so absolutely dedicated to their "job", because to them it's not a "job"; it's about helping the addict who still suffers.

Fantastic experience: I showed up to the out patient program pretty defeated and they recommended I come the day I got out of the 30 day program at the Action facility. Glad I took the advice because it helped make me more accountable for my actions and they helped give me the integrity I needed for the days there wasn't classes I could attend. I found myself looking forward to the 3 days a week I went to their meetings. It actually gave me something to look forward to on tuesdays, thursdays and Saturday's and the rest of the week is up to you what you choose to do. I would recommend action out patient to the world if I could. They helped me save my life

Fantastic experience: I had an amazing experience with action out patient. It did wonders for my recovery. The staff is extremely supportive and helpful.

Fantastic experience: Action Family Counseling has helped me greatly in turning my life around for the better. The lead counselor, Jessica Patterson-Byrd, is a very knowledgeable counselor and very easy to relate with on many levels. I very quickly grew to respect her. Jeremy Green and Adrieanna Jaime are great counselors as well and there never seems to be a time when they will not sit down and talk with you. It is completely apparent that all of the Action employees are there because they truly care.
