O'Keefe had been in custody since he was arrested in January and charged with assaulting and choking a woman.
In February he pleaded guilty to a separate charge of drug possession.
The conditions of his bail include staying at the rehab centre for six months full-time, taking any medication prescribed to him and regularly seeing a psychiatrist and psychologist.
