What Clean Path Recovery does

Clean Path Recovery, operating under the legal name Clean Path Behavioral Health, is a private, for-profit behavioral health and addiction treatment provider founded in 2017 by Lee Heiligman and headquartered in Costa Mesa, California. The organization operates a multi-level continuum of care across Orange County, including medically supervised detoxification, residential treatment, outpatient programs (OP), intensive outpatient programs (IOP) up to 10 hours weekly, structured recovery residence (sober living) with 24-hour on-site supervision, and longer-term supportive housing. Its clinical offering centers on a proprietary 5-Level recovery model (Discovery, Exploration, Healing, Purpose, Freedom) and an integrated dual diagnosis approach for co-occurring disorders such as trauma, PTSD, anxiety, and depression, supplemented by holistic modalities (fitness, nutrition, yoga, acupuncture, music therapy through Rock to Recovery, and art therapy) plus gender-specific and perinatal tracks.

The company's core technology is its clinical and operational methodology rather than software: a structured treatment progression framework, gender- and population-segregated programming (men's, women's, perinatal women with children), family programming with tele-psych support, and recovery residence operations integrated with daily 12-step meeting transportation and routine drug testing. Supporting infrastructure includes an online insurance verification portal, a 24/7 phone-and-text admissions line, and an educational content library (blog and YouTube video library) used as a top-of-funnel demand generation channel.

Revenue is generated primarily through insurance reimbursement across residential, IOP, and recovery residence services, supplemented by private pay for select offerings and bundled family program services. The go-to-market is direct-to-consumer, with admissions handled in-house, supported by healthcare provider referrals and community-led positioning within the Orange County recovery ecosystem. The organization operates three locations — Costa Mesa, Fountain Valley, and Santa Ana — with a headcount band of 11-50 employees and holds Joint Commission accreditation, California DHCS licensure, and probation-approved status, indicating compliance with the regulatory baseline required for reimbursable behavioral health services in the county.
