Our Addiction Recovery Program – Steps to Take to Sobriety
Addiction recovery is not a simple task. The journey to recovery isn’t as easy as it may seem. Recovering from an addiction to drugs or alcohol takes commitment, patience, dedication, and hard work, but it is worth it in the end. As with any journey, the path to recovery starts when you are ready. If you have made the decision to overcome addiction, our drug rehab centers are here to help.
Steps to Our Addiction Recovery Program
The specific steps that one will take when they enter any drug rehab facility will vary according to a few elements, such as the expectations of the individual and the type of addiction they have. However, a stay in our addiction recovery facility can be broken down into a few key elements, as follows: intake, detox, therapy, and aftercare.
Once you are ready to take your journey towards recovery, stop in or call our substance abuse treatment facility. We will help you understand what you will be going through while you are here, and we will give you the push you need to make the commitment to our addiction recovery program. For now, please read more about our addiction treatment center and what we can do to help you succeed.
Intake
This is the time where you will ask all of the questions that you need to know. We will ask you questions, as well, and we may ask you to undergo a few diagnostic screenings in order to tailor your treatment plan to your needs. We will inquire about the severity of your addiction, family history of drug use, past attempts at rehab, and financial arrangements for treatment.
Detox
Almost every phase of rehab will involve some type of detoxification at the beginning. This stage will remove every trace of the drugs or alcohol you were using from your body. The detox process will differ depending on the individual’s drug usage and dosage, their metabolism and body composition, the length of the addiction, and other considerations. Detox will always be monitored within a supervised setting when you are a client of our addiction recovery center.
Rehab
After our clients get through the detoxification portion of their stay in our drug detox clinic, they will start their true rehabilitation. This is when clients really get down to the core reasons that they turned to drugs and alcohol in the first place. Our goal is to provide our clients with the tools they need to move forward with their lives without turning to drugs and alcohol after they leave our addiction recovery facility.
Therapy
Therapy is a vital part of our addiction treatment facility and one which we take very seriously. Behavioral therapy will help address the thoughts that our clients have about substance abuse and their lives in general. Therapy will help you make better choices about your life and how to get by without turning to drugs. Our therapy involves one-on-one counseling, dual diagnosis (where applicable), group therapy, and family sessions for those who wish to involve family members.
Aftercare
Recovery is an ongoing battle that every client must face when they leave the recovery program behind. However, we want you to know that you will never be alone. We understand that it is difficult for many of our clients to withstand the temptation of drugs and alcohol, especially when they are back to their normal, everyday life. We offer many aftercare services that will assist you in your ongoing journey. Our clinic offers follow-up programs that may include outpatient therapy sessions, weekend rehab stays or continued family or group counseling.
Don’t let addiction ruin your life. We can help you fight through the withdrawals and teach you how to function without the crutch of a high. Call us or stop in for more information and to get started on your sober, healthy journey.
