Treatment

Alcoholism

Treatment for alcohol use disorder (AUD) is available in several formats and levels of care. The treatment process address various issues that contribute to a dependence on alcohol (often referred to as alcoholism). Alcohol rehab in Wisconsin provides the tools and supports you'll need to overcome AUD and maintain long-term sobriety.

Drug Addiction

The goal of drug rehab in Wisconsin is to address drug addiction as a complex issue that involves physical, mental, and relational aspects. During rehab, treatment focuses on each of these areas and gives you the tools you need to achieve and maintain sobriety.

Dual Diagnosis

Wisconsin has a range of dual-diagnosis addiction treatment programs for individuals with co-occurring substance use disorders and mental health conditions, available on an inpatient and outpatient basis. Therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), are used in conjunction with medication management and group therapy to address both disorders simultaneously. By treating both disorders at the same time, you’ll improve your mental health, develop crucial skills to handle stress and resist relapse, and improve your quality of life.

Opioid Addiction

Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.

Substance Abuse

Dual-diagnosis treatment programs in Wisconsin can provide substance abuse treatment for individuals facing addiction and co-occurring mental health disorders. You can usually find treatment to suit your individual needs, whether that is inpatient, outpatient, or day treatment. These programs utilize evidence-based therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and mindfulness-based interventions to help you relearn new thought patterns, develop new coping strategies, and learn the skills to maintain recovery.

Level of Care

Inpatient

Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.

Sober Living Homes

Individuals staying in a sober living home in Wisconsin benefit from support and friendship with others in recovery. They’re also encouraged to continue rehab through support groups and outpatient treatment. Halfway house residents further benefit from increased responsibility and mutual accountability that helps them practice recovery skills. Their time at a sober living home prepares them to transition back to regular life after treatment.

Aftercare Support

Continuing care services are also available in the evening. Program services currently assist clients in obtaining adequate childcare; transportation; clothing; housing and for any other services that would otherwise prevent them from staying gainfully employed. Service delivery assists women in obtaining self-resiliency/self-sufficiency, improving their quality of life and allowing them to make a productive contribution for self, family and the community which builds on strengths.

Clinical Services

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a therapy modality that focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is used to establish and allow for healthy responses to thoughts and feelings (instead of unhealthy responses, like using drugs or alcohol). CBT has been proven effective for recovering addicts of all kinds, and is used to strengthen a patient's own self-awareness and ability to self-regulate. CBT allows individuals to monitor their own emotional state, become more adept at communicating with others, and manage stress without needing to engage in substance abuse.

Whether a marriage or other committed relationship, an intimate partnership is one of the most important aspects of a person's life. Drug and alcohol addiction affects both members of a couple in deep and meaningful ways, as does rehab and recovery. Couples therapy and other couples-focused treatment programs are significant parts of exploring triggers of addiction, as well as learning how to build healthy patterns to support ongoing sobriety.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a modified form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a treatment designed to help people understand and ultimately affect the relationship between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. DBT is often used for individuals who struggle with self-harm behaviors, such as self-mutilation (cutting) and suicidal thoughts, urges, or attempts. It has been proven clinically effective for those who struggle with out-of-control emotions and mental health illnesses like Borderline Personality Disorder.

Experiential therapy is a form of therapy in which clients are encouraged to surface and work through subconscious issues by engaging in real-time experiences. Experiential therapy departs from traditional talk therapy by involving the body, and having clients engage in activities, movements, and physical and emotional expression. This can involve role-play or using props (which can include other people). Experiential therapy can help people process trauma, memories, and emotion quickly, deeply, and in a lasting fashion, leading to substantial and impactful healing.

Based on CSAT Best Practices AODA treatment is provided within the family context, especially the mother/child bond and other self-defined significant relationships and emphasizes the development of natural support networks of neighbors, church, and family as defined by the women. This focus was strengthened with the results of the initial CHPPE Evaluation which showed that the chief predictor of sobriety and long-term recovery for women was resolution of the mother’s relationship with her children and the fostering of healthy family functioning and family intactness.

In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.

Life skills trainings involve all the skills a person must have in order to function successfully in the world. These include time management, career guidance, money management, and effective communication. Truly successful addiction recovery is based on the ability to not only live substance-free, but to thrive. Life skills teaches the practical necessities of functioning in society, which sets clients up for success in life, and therefore sobriety.

Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.
