A/D Psychotherapy and Clinical Inc

A/D Psychotherapy and Clinical Inc sits in Sandy, Utah, serving Salt Lake County residents who are ready to engage addiction treatment and mental health recovery without stepping away from their daily lives. As a full outpatient treatment center, it occupies a practical and important space in the recovery landscape — structured enough to provide real clinical support, flexible enough to meet people where they are.

The center addresses substance use and addiction, mental health conditions, and co-occurring emotional and behavioral issues, recognizing that these challenges rarely appear in isolation. For people in longer-term recovery planning, that integrated focus matters: a program that can hold the full picture of a person's needs is better positioned to support lasting change than one that treats substance use without accounting for underlying mental health factors.

A/D Psychotherapy and Clinical offers three levels of outpatient care — Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP), Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP), and standard outpatient — creating a genuine continuum for clients at different points in their recovery. PHP provides the most intensive structure among the three, suited for individuals who need frequent clinical contact while still living at home. IOP offers meaningful programming with greater scheduling flexibility, and standard outpatient supports clients who are stabilizing and building independence in their recovery.

This stepped framework is particularly valuable for people planning a longer recovery journey. Rather than graduating out of care into a gap, clients at A/D Psychotherapy and Clinical can transition between levels as their needs shift — a model that supports sustained engagement with treatment rather than a single acute episode.

One of the distinguishing commitments of A/D Psychotherapy and Clinical is its explicit focus on aftercare. The center provides both long-term aftercare and ongoing aftercare client care — services that acknowledge recovery does not end when a primary treatment program concludes. For individuals and families evaluating a recovery center as a long-term partner, this is a meaningful differentiator.

Aftercare support helps clients maintain the progress built during PHP or IOP, navigate new challenges that emerge in early and ongoing recovery, and stay connected to clinical resources when life gets complicated. Paired with a treatment approach that incorporates recovery yoga alongside individualized planning, the center's model reflects an understanding that recovery is a sustained process, not a single intervention.

The clinical team at A/D Psychotherapy and Clinical is notably credentialed for an outpatient setting. Michael E. Dusoe, PhD, LCSW co-founded the center and brings doctoral-level clinical expertise to its foundation. Program Director Tammie L. Bendixen-Dusoe holds a BS and LASUDC credential, and Medical Director Zoe Robbins carries both a DNP and PMH-NP designation — providing psychiatric medical oversight that is not always present in outpatient substance abuse treatment settings. Additional staff include licensed clinical social workers, a certified mental health counselor, and licensed substance use disorder counselors.

The center accepts both private pay and insurance, and operates Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 5 PM. Prospective clients and family members can reach the team at (801) 233-8577 or by email at [email protected] to discuss which level of care fits their current situation.
