Care that includes transgender and nonbinary people
Transgender and nonbinary people often report being misgendered or treated poorly in health care settings, which can make treatment feel unsafe. Before you enroll, ask how the program handles names and pronouns, room assignments, bathrooms and continuing gender-affirming hormones.
Read our transgender rehab guide for more.
Is outpatient enough?
Outpatient care works best when your home is stable and supportive, you don't need medical detox, and you can get to sessions reliably. If use is heavy or daily, start with detox or residential LGBTQ rehab instead.

Call 866-825-1171Frequently asked questions
Will my information stay private?
Federal rules (42 CFR Part 2) give substance use treatment records extra confidentiality protections beyond standard health privacy law. Ask any program how it handles your records and who can see them.
Can I keep working during IOP?
Often, yes. Many IOPs run in the evening. Partial hospitalization takes most of the day, so it's harder to combine with full-time work.
What's the difference between IOP and PHP?
IOP usually meets about three hours a day, several days a week. PHP, or day treatment, runs most of the day, five or more days a week. Both let you sleep at home.
What does it mean that a program reports an LGBTQ program?
Each listed facility told SAMHSA's national treatment survey that it offers a program or group specifically for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or queer clients. It's self-reported, so ask the program how the group works and how often it meets.
