We offer Partial Hospitalization (PHP), Intensive Outpatient (IOP), and Aftercare for adults working through drug and alcohol addiction, often alongside anxiety, depression, trauma, or PTSD. Our clinical approach blends evidence-based therapy (CBT, DBT, ACT) with a family systems lens and a foundation in 12-step principles. We are trauma-informed and equipped to treat co-occurring mental health conditions. Group and individual therapy is paired with holistic care including sound healing, meditation, mindfulness, yoga, and art therapy. We also run two specialty programs you will not find at most outpatient providers in the area: an Aviation Professionals track for pilots, air traffic controllers, and crew navigating FAA and HIMS pathways, and a Family Care program for the loved ones impacted by a family member's addiction. All clinicians are licensed therapists or certified alcohol and drug counselors with at least 10 years in addiction and mental health. DHCS Certified. Free 15-minute consultations available.

1 Star Review Discharged Without Cause - Beware If…read moreCourt-Mandated I was court-mandated to Fred Brown Recovery and followed every requirement. Despite my full compliance--including attending extra parenting and anger management classes on my own--I was blindsided and discharged with no due process on July 2, 2025. That morning, I was called into an emergency meeting while I was at work and told I was losing my housing and needed to appear in court. The reason? "Not getting along with roommates." This was completely false--I have video evidence and written statements from all of my roommates confirming we got along fine. Even those I previously had an incident with had no ongoing issues with me. It became clear they were waiting for things to "build up" to discharge me. Charlotte pretended to be supportive in meetings but reported negative things to my case manager behind my back without my permission. Le Ann was rude, condescending, and even mocked my job, saying I should work at McDonald's instead of in my chosen field. When I responsibly reached out to staff for help after hours, they used it against me instead of seeing it as a sign of accountability. I was discharged the same day--no warning, no chance to defend myself, and no opportunity to correct anything. I wasn't even allowed back on the property to retrieve my belongings. This discharge put me at risk of going to jail due to my court case. Fred Brown made no attempt to work with me or honor the basic principles of recovery, justice, or trauma-informed care. I write this as a cautionary tale for others--especially anyone court-mandated--considering this program. They are not interested in your success. They are interested in control, optics, and covering themselves. --------/-/////////----------//////----------- They are discharging me without a place to go after they allowed a person to room with me who had just relapsed and she started fighting w me in my sleep. Another roommate threw a towel at me in the middle of the night. They said the common denominator was me even though they let unhinged people in their program. They try to kick people out for all sorts of reasons so your housing is not stable here. Go elsewhere. * oh, and might I add. The girl who was allowed to stay had just relapsed (the usual policy is sober 60-90 days before entering recovery bridge housing) and she has her own place So they kicked me out on the curb - homeless- w out helping me find anything and wouldn't let me come back to get my stuff over something ridiculous - a girl yelling at me in my sleep and me responding "not now"

Staff members are amazing. The most down to earth, supporting and accepting group of people I have ever met. I can feel they genuinely aspire to help.

I did the ketamine therapy with Steve and his father. They were the most professional, caring people I've ever dealt with. They explained everything about the therapy and made me feel so comfortable. I had been dealing with anxiety, depression, and addiction for almost 35 yrs due to some deep-rooted issues. Steve and the ketamine therapy HELPED me figure out how to help myself. And take the steps to change my life. If you read this review and you are READY to put in the work and change your life, give these guys a call. I can honestly say that I'm truly grateful for their help, and they will be friends for a very long time.

The procedure went ok, quite painful, but everything seemed to go as planned. Later that day and for the following week, I was in extreme pain - unable to walk. I called the doctors office three times to leave a message and see if there was something wrong as this was not normal. Each time, my messages were left unanswered - no doctor to respond to my inquiries. I ended up going to Urgent Care for assistance to address the excruitating pain. When I finally was able to speak to someone, it was the front desk who provided me some advise (same that was on my handout - she was not a medical professional, so I didn't have any help in that conversation). I provided the feedback to Dr. ElKhoury- Front desk staff unprofessional, no follow-up at a very vulnerable time in the process and unfortunate. I've since found other Pain Management doctors in OC that have been much better - but I wish, pain management was more than just spinal shots and more thorough review of options.

They were there for u at ur lowest.... I reached 7yrs of Sobriety because of Aegis. I wouldn't be a patient this long, if it was how these karen's are talking abt. Yes they have rules just like any Dr's office does & the ONLY rule is to COMMUNICATE if u can't show up. That's it!! Since 2018, I have regularly gotten dosed & counseling at this location. Every Nurse, Staff Member & Counselor has worked with me & understood when I couldn't be there, when I moved, when I relapsed, when i'm sick!!! They constantly remind me that they are here for Me & they are. Bc of Aegis, I have healthy habits & coping tools. I'm almost completely off MAT program. They have been there for me when I lost sobriety, careers, through accidents & the deepest & darkest Depressions. I can't believe how ungrateful some ppl are....I get medication, counseling, friendship, family, understanding & sm support at Aegis. When I had NO ONE...I had the care & support at Aegis. NOBODY treates anyone, anyway for no reason...If ur leaving 1 star Novels here, u know damn well u didn't get ur way or u burned thru the BILLIONS of bridges they provided u!!! Stop Lying!

I'm rating this as follows: +1 star for the counseling, -1 star for the nursing staff. -1 star for…read morethe doctors. -1 star for the front desk, -1 star for knowledge in dealing with people stricken with addiction. Out of 5 stars for overall, they receive 1 star for the counseling I've received. The front desk (aside from Ed) can be decent, but the one girl looks down upon patients. The doctors, hah. Dr. Radnya is an unhappy little man who takes it out on patients. He doesn't want you to be nice to him, he will be rude in return. He looks down at us as his side gig while he steps on us, and only pays attention to us when he can impose his will and made up rules (that NEVER WORK WITH THE ADDICT MIND!) that guarantee people will leave and go elsewhere, or relapse...sadly. This place used to be crowded, but people have either relapsed because of the way they are treated here, or found a better clinic (which I will do ASAP) and moved on; very smart of them. You do not threaten the addict mind. You do not treat addicts like they are always guilty. We need positive re-enforcement, and shown that we are doing good, and until we find reasons other than this methadone garbage to gain our reason and the will to be humans again. The counselors (the few I've had) do a decent job of being a voice to talk to every few weeks, or weekly, depending on your insurance. The doctors here have no idea of the people they are treating, and do not want to. I grew up with a doctor, and they are an ego off in their own God-Mind. So if you want to feel like you are still a guilty piece of garbage, and you feel the need to keep beating yourself up because the doctor goes back on his word and makes you believe you are wrong for following another doctor's advice, come on over to Aegis. 90%guarantee you will want to go elsewhere, and the other 10% probably do not want to get better, while most of us do.
