Outpatient Counseling

Intensive Outpatient Program

Court-approved alcohol and substance abuse addiction treatment, one-on-one by telehealth.

Aloha

New Horizons is a nationally recognized program that uses a cognitive approach to teach individuals to make constructive, rather than destructive, choices about drinking, drugs and substance abuse. New Horizons is listed with SAMHSA, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration of the US Department of Health and Human Services.

Our Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) approach is not like a traditional 12-step program. It is a highly successful, one-on-one system that helps you make positive choices that bring you success, rather than negative choices that bring you pain.

Our Clinical Director, Mark Turansky, explains the CBT approach used by New Horizons in his book, Figure it, Face it & Fix it: Your surprising solution to addictions and substance abuse.

A Positive Approach

The New Horizons Program is a positive, effective treatment for addiction. We do not use aversion, hypnosis, drug therapy or hospitalization. Instead, we teach a straightforward, step-by-step method that allows you to achieve and maintain control over your dependency, with minimal disruption to your life.

New Horizons is an outpatient program, and every session is held by telehealth. By taking an outpatient approach, the enormous and unnecessary expense of residential treatment is all but eliminated. You lose no time from work, your personal finances are not as affected, and you don’t have to explain to friends, family and your employer where you have been during a recovery stay. It’s easy to stay off problem substances when you are confined in a program and can’t get any, but what happens when you get out? At New Horizons, we show our clients how to deal with their dependency in real-life situations. Working one-on-one with our counselor, you receive the individual attention that is so important to success.

A Confidential Approach

Confidentiality is of great concern at New Horizons, and we follow very strict HIPAA guidelines. An addiction is a personal matter, and we take every step to ensure that our clients’ involvement in this program is 100% confidential. We have worked with people in the military, first responders, the entertainment industry, individuals with security clearances and many high-profile professionals whose careers depend on their reputations. Since New Horizons is a private organization, complete anonymity is ensured.

An Effective Program

The New Horizons Program shows you that urges to use alcohol or drugs can be overcome. “Urges” do not have to translate into “using.” You do have a CHOICE. This program will help you build confidence so you can maintain control of your dependency in your day-to-day life. Rather than saying you can’t have or don’t want drugs or alcohol, we show you how to change the way you view them. You will learn how to make a conscious choice not to use, because you will come to realize that the benefits of being drug or alcohol free outweigh the consequences of using.

Program Overview

  • One-on-one personal counseling that treats the whole person (body, mind and spirit), not just the addiction.
  • Confidential: we recognize that many people don’t gravitate toward public groups where “everyone knows my business.”
  • Addiction counseling that helps you develop the emotional skills and psychological strength needed for long-term functional sobriety.
  • The New Horizons “Choice Process” for developing personal motivation and individual responsibility.
  • Homework assignments and outside reading, with telephone follow-up between sessions to monitor progress as needed.
  • At your request, we offer healing for the entire family system by involving spouses or children in the recovery process.

What IOP Graduates Say

To protect our clients’ privacy, we share only initials and general locations.

The curriculum is fresh, exciting and empowering. It’s quite different from other addiction therapies. The presentation and counsel was impeccable, very professional and compassionate in delivery. The life skill teaching format was much more than addiction rehab, more like life rehab. Thank you Mark. You have saved lives. I wish this program were longer. Please continue it!

C.E. from the North Shore

In this program you get the one-on-one time you need to talk about your problems so you can address them. Mark has something to say and what he says is really positive. The curriculum is awesome and always keeps you busy so you really have no time to think about your addiction.

M.F. from Kailua

YES!!!! I would recommend this program!! Mark, you were able to bring out emotions and reasoning behind why we do what we do. In just 10 sessions you have transformed my life. You were able to give us answers to questions I didn’t even know we had to ask ourselves. You have deleted guilt and shame of my past and this has allowed me to finally find myself again. I wish I could tell the world about this program. My only suggestion is that it would be longer. That’s it! Absolutely amazing!! Thank you so much!!

W.E. from Kaneohe

The New Horizons approach is an intensive, thorough, ‘wholistic’ program that will challenge your thought processes with the hope of freedom from your addiction. I liked the flexibility and have no suggestions to make it better. It was great!

D.K. from Maui

This program helped me find the emotional awareness I need to find wholeness in my life. By connecting certain components, I have been able to identify the cause of my misery and am now able to map out my destiny to success. I went to church to find recovery and didn’t find it. I never thought I would go to recovery and end up finding church.

E.L. from Mililani

I was happy to find Mark to be safe enough to be honest, yet in our sessions I was able to gain valuable insights as well. The ‘I can’ approach is reality and puts the responsibility squarely where it belongs: with me. I gained a deeper sense of who I am, what makes me tick, what I’m looking for and what I need. And that realization will help me in moving forward in understanding my own emotions and the emotions of others. Understanding why I do things and what I am yearning for will help me to make healthy choices rather than choices based on running away and relief from my fears.

C.S. from Kailua

I really enjoyed every moment of working with Mark and through the program. I have not felt this healthy and happy in years. I loved every moment.

A.K. from Kailua

The empowering ‘Choice Process’ is amazing!!

K.B. from Wahiawa

This has been the best and most productive experience of my life since my struggle with addiction. I learned a lot about myself. In particular, I learned about the underlying causes of all my using. I recommend this program to anyone struggling with addiction or relationship problems. If you seriously want to change or get better and you are ready to work to get better, this program is the program for you.

M.C. from Molokai

This program was way more than I ever expected. It was very well rounded and has a great tempo. My values and life choices, which I was avoiding, were brought out and looked at for the first time in quite a while. I needed that. To see the reasons behind why I’ve been doing to myself what I have been doing has been enlightening. The New Horizons program is what I would recommend to others. Thank you Mark for everything, everything!! Your Choice Process technique is right on, true and real.

S.L. from the North Shore

New Horizons is awesome. I liked and enjoyed the methodology. I really liked the approach that was used. It made a lot of sense to me.

R.V. from Waianae

In my personalized sessions, I learned to stop using by looking at addiction in a positive, honest and empowering way. I really felt like this investment was effective in treating addiction. Plus, Mark is the best leader for the job!!

J.R. from Waialua

I would recommend the New Horizons Choice Process to anyone struggling with addiction because it has been valuable for me to get insight into my past and how it affects my present decision making and thought process. Also, I was taught to identify my emotional flaws and underlying causes. I now know that I have been substituting my addiction for my deep need for connection. Thank you Mark!!!

M.N. from Manoa

I had a good and helpful experience. I would recommend it because it’s so relaxing and I learned a lot about my addiction. I also learned some different ways to cope and to be clean.

B.T. from Mililani

This program is very practical. It’s about the nuts and bolts of dealing with addictions. It breaks things down into manageable parts. It is reality-based therapy that helps you to own your program.

G.L. from Kaneohe

As a person who has been in and out of treatment, I can say that this approach will be the ‘cure’ for addiction that everyone has been waiting for.

E.A. from Makakilo

Mark, you overall were the highlight of the program.

T.T. from Honolulu

I recommend this program because it is a totally different approach, and I should know, since I have been in and out of treatment programs for the past 8 years. The Cognitive Behavioral Therapy approach is way better than a lockdown program. The program is easy to understand.

C.N. from the North Shore

Mark, you started out by instilling trust in me (no rules, no can’ts, this is my program, etc.). It was non-confrontational. You made this our program and we can (or not) choose to work through to sobriety. It was a positive experience where people can grow and become more aware of their addictions and gain tools and insights for recovery. Awesome!

Female from Oregon

Figure it, Face it and Fix it gives an out-of-the-box look at addiction and recovery. I actually thought my situation was hopeless, that I would be an ‘alcoholic’ till the day I die. When I read on the New Horizons website that addiction does not have to be a disease, that in this program we would not be labeled as an ‘alcoholic,’ and that it is a non 12-step program, I was sold. I recommend this to anyone dealing with an addiction. What can I say about Mark? He is my life-like angel. He is amazing at what he does. I have no regrets. Mark is AWESOME!!!

Male from Maui

Mark, from the beginning you created a safe environment where our sessions were supportive. There was common ground for expression with good open dialogue. The pace was well formatted, the materials were well presented and we moved at a very good pace that was not over-regimented. You set up a loving environment where I immersed myself in the power of human love.

Male from the Big Island

In completely unexpected ways, Mark has given me not only the tools to fight my addictions, but he has done it in an atmosphere of love and beauty. His greatest gift, however, has been opening my mind to understanding how I can get here with genuine hope that I had abandoned. This experience has been life changing. Thank you Mark!

Male from the North Shore of Oahu

Mark, you are an amazing man. You have a way of making ME feel like I am worth something. When you told me that I WILL do great things with my future, for once, in years, I believed in myself. Mark, I would describe you as: life saver, compassionate, caring and understanding.

Female from Oregon

Yes, I would recommend the New Horizons approach to others. It is very informative, with lots of information, and the program is positive, not negative. Mark, the only word I can think of is AMAZING. Thank you!

Male from Mililani

I am a repeat client (now returned to do the Life Coaching certification). Each time I have taken away different life coping skills. The first round saved my life and this one added to it. Mark, you are a phenomenal mentor.

Female from Maui

This has been a completely positive experience that addresses so many aspects of your baggage and issues: the underlying causes instead of the symptoms. I really feel changed, cleansed and a completely different person. So powerful. Mark, you are an angel. Divine inspiration and intervention.

Male from Oahu

I would recommend Mark’s program to others. It is empowering and very educational and it is a great place to learn about what makes you tick and how to fix my problems. AWESOME!

Male from Oahu

The Choice Process is life changing. Mark is able to feel the pain you are going through and show you how to heal it. This experience in working with Mark surpassed every expectation I had. I think you nailed it. Mark, I think you are so special. I thank God for you. I’m grateful that He put you in my life.

Female from the North Shore

AWESOME!!! I was really able to focus on self without distraction. Working with Mark is great to get so much positive and helpful feedback. A lot of information to grasp, but I am motivated and want to learn more.
