Our Programs

To properly assess what a client requires from a treatment plan, they need to undergo a psychiatric consultation. This is an evaluation of all of the factors that cause a client to feel emotionally distressed. We will explore the physiological, biological, social, and medical reasons for mental health issues that a client might be suffering from.

The pre-treatment assessment that our clients undergo has their best interests at heart. To effectively treat a substance use disorder, we need to understand some of the underlying causes of the addiction and triggers that may cause a relapse. Our clients’ health is our number one priority. Each question we ask is designed to help our clients during the recovery process. The assessment is also necessary before we can provide any sort of medication to assist the withdrawal process. We will also outline a timeline for expected withdrawal, and the amount and type of therapy clients should receive.

Partial hospitalization programs are common amongst those recovering from mental health disorders and substance use disorders. They give clients the autonomy to continue aspects of their normal life while also ensuring that they receive the care they need. During a partial hospitalization program, also known as a PHP, clients reside at home and commute to a care facility seven days a week. Clients will most commonly attend a partial hospitalization program for about six hours a day, six days a week.

Drug testing is a measure taken to ensure sobriety or the discontinued use of particular substances. There are various methods for drug testing, all with the same goal of detecting substances within a person’s system. We test for drugs as part of the assessment and screening process, but it is also an important aspect of aftercare. Catching relapse early can be a major contributing factor to resetting the rehabilitation process. The longer someone recovering from substance use disorder continues taking substances in secret, the more severe their problem will become. Drug testing allows them to be held accountable to their goals and can be a driving psychological factor for staying clean.

Outpatient programs help deliver a multifaceted, bespoke approach to ongoing recovery treatment options designed with the client in mind. Our outpatient programs are more flexible than the intensive outpatient care programs as the clients at this stage have usually been in previous treatment where they have made progress. Outpatient programs are designed to help people maintain their recovery and usually take place once a week, typically for one-hour sessions, which can be scheduled to align with clients’ free time.

Intensive outpatient care programs are designed to assist with the transition from recovery to the return to normal life. Clients who require a structured treatment plan to overcome addiction may find the intensive outpatient programs’ integrative approach very helpful. Intensive outpatient care programs are designed to allow individuals to receive intensive outpatient treatment while minimizing disruption in their lives.

Most often provided by a psychologist, clinical social worker, or licensed therapist, family therapy aims to serve as a helpful guide in resolving conflict and improving overall communication within families. During this process, families are encouraged to be honest discussing issues positively and in turn empathizing with one another. Family therapy may be recommended due to conflict and communication issues within a family.

Medication-assisted treatment refers to the use of medications in treatment, in conjunction with counseling and behavioral therapies, which helps clients achieve and sustain recovery. MAT is often used to treat addictions to opioids, such as heroin and prescription pills like oxycodone. The medications prescribed during MAT vary depending on the type of substance abuse disorder in question, the severity of the addiction, and the client’s mental health condition. Treatment can include antidepressants, methadone, Subutex, naltrexone implants (Vivitrol), and Antabuse.

In a rehabilitation setting, telehealth can be beneficial, and prove to be an excellent alternative to in-person meetings for those with a busy schedule, for anyone worried about discretion, and those suffering from anxiety who would be more comfortable at home.

Rehabilitation is a complex process. For those recovering from a substance use disorder or alcohol use disorder, it can prove extremely challenging. Not only are there physical urges to revert to old habits due to the body’s dependence on substances, but psychological issues as well. Relapse is preventable.

Continuing care, also referred to as aftercare, is any ongoing care received after a rehabilitation program is completed. Some of the most common types of continuing care are; 12 step programs, outpatient care, sober living facilities, and counseling.
