Question 1

How Long Does Outpatient Treatment Last?

Accepted Answer

Addiction rehab isn’t one-size-fits-all, each individual is unique and their recovery depends on the person. One individual may need intensive outpatient treatment for 6 weeks, another may need inpatient treatment for one month then intensive outpatient treatment. There is no “do this for 28 days and you’re cured” rehab. If you are curious about treatment for yourself or a loved one, contact us for a confidential assessment.

Question 2

How Does Outpatient Addiction Treatment Work?

Accepted Answer

Outpatient alcohol and addiction programs usually take on three steps - Assessment, Treatment and Aftercare. First, an initial biopsychosocial assessment is completed with one of our trained and compassionate counselors. Assessments require a combination of medical history, physical exam, and drug testing. Through the assessment, staff will be able to gather information needed to place you in the best treatment available.Second, our staff will schedule your admission date and you are able to begin your treatment recovery program and a new chapter in your life. Intensive outpatient treatment and outpatient treatment programs are available. Third, aftercare is critical for a successful return to the community in which you live and is one of the most valuable assets of treatment. Our Aftercare Program is tailored to the needs of each individual while still gaining awareness of potential problems they could face early in recovery.

Question 3

What Can I Expect At A Substance Abuse Assessment?

Accepted Answer

At a substance abuse assessment, you’ll talk with one of our trained and compassionate intake counselors who will be able to discuss treatment options as well as answer any questions you or your loved ones may have. We complete a biopsychosocial evaluation that includes questions about what kind of substances have been used, how frequently they are used, and other issues related to the substance use. It’s also important to know how much support an individual has on the road to recovery, which means we will also ask about the living environment and family situations. Through your assessment our staff will be able to gather information needed to place you in the best treatment available. If you need a level of care which we don’t provide we will work with our network of providers to assist you.

Question 4

Will I Get Individual Sessions With An Addiction Counselor?

Accepted Answer

Yes. While in treatment you’ll have at least one individual counseling session per week - if you need more, we’ll make arrangements so you can see counselor more frequently. We realize that while our groups are small, there may be things you want to discuss individually and this one-on-one care is crucial.

Question 5

What Is The Role Of A Counselor In Addiction Recovery?

Accepted Answer

The role of a counselor in addiction recovery is to help the patient identify goals to achieve and work towards them. But make no mistake, it is the patient driving recovery. Therapy and counselors give perspective, teach skills and strategies to cope and actions to go along with recovery. It is the patient who needs to work to implement actions and make changes to achieve recovery goals.
