Addiction and dual-diagnosis treatment center at 7924 Ivanhoe Ave, Suite 7, La Jolla, CA 92037, operating since 1988 with Joint Commission accreditation — making it the longer-running of La Jolla's two residential substance abuse programs alongside La Jolla Recovery on Herschel Ave, which opened 20 years later in 2008. Northbound provides medically supervised detox, residential care, PHP, IOP, and outpatient programming for alcohol, opioid, cocaine, methamphetamine, and prescription drug dependence with co-occurring mental health disorder treatment. Clinical therapies include CBT, DBT, EMDR, trauma-focused therapy, emotional growth work, 12-step facilitation, and family counseling. The La Jolla location is one of six offices spanning California and Washington state. Northbound's 37-year track record and multi-site infrastructure give it a continuity-of-care advantage — clients stepping down from residential treatment to outpatient can transfer between locations, while those whose co-occurring depression proves medication-resistant during recovery escalate to the TMS and ketamine protocols at Kadima Neuropsychiatry Institute two miles away on Holiday Ct.
