Treatment

Alcoholism

When a person has alcohol use disorder, often referred to as alcoholism, they build up a physical tolerance to alcohol, and they experience withdrawal if they stop drinking. Due to physical and psychological dependence, they may be unable to stop drinking on their own. Alcohol rehab in Mississippi can help. Treatment options include detox, cognitive behavioral therapy, mutual help groups, and pharmacological treatments.

Drug Addiction

For those seeking help with addiction, a drug rehab in Mississippi offers the necessary care to achieve long-term recovery. Options include inpatient, residential, partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient, and long-term drug rehab in Mississippi.

Dual Diagnosis

In Mississippi, dual-diagnosis addiction treatment programs have the expertise to treat individuals with co-occurring substance use disorders and mental health conditions. Their inpatient and outpatient rehab programs offer individual and group therapy, medication-assisted treatment, cognitive behavioral therapy, or dialectical behavioral therapy, and other trauma-informed care, and skills training to address both disorders and equip you with the skills to maintain your recovery.

Mental Health and Substance Abuse

Mental health and substance abuse treatment options in Mississippi are typically in a dual-diagnosis facility offering inpatient, detox, and intensive outpatient programs. By addressing both mental health and substance abuse, participants drastically improve their well-being and are more likely to achieve long-term sobriety. These facilities typically offer a variety of therapeutic interventions, including counseling, medical care, group therapy, and holistic approaches like mindfulness or expressive arts therapy.

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.

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.

12-Step

Participants in 12 step programs focus on the development of spiritual, psychological, and emotional skills to support sustained recovery. They regularly attend 12 step meetings, which are free, peer-directed, anonymous, open to the public, and accessible daily in most communities. Specialized formats are also widely available, including groups for seniors, teens, and families. Though these programs are rooted in the belief in a higher power, religious affiliation is not required.

Aftercare Support

Completing a drug or alcohol rehab program shouldn't spell the end of substance abuse treatment. Aftercare involves making a sustainable plan for recovery, including ongoing support. This can include sober living arrangements like halfway houses, career counseling, and setting a patient up with community programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA).

Clinical Services

Family Therapy

Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.

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. The Friendship Connection strives to meet the therapeutic needs of each individual by providing individual, group, and family counseling on site. In conjunction with other agencies, individuals receive services for mental disorders, abuse issues, anger management, grief, and etc.

Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a clinical approach to helping people with substance abuse issues and other conditions shift behavior in positive ways. It is more goal-oriented than traditional psychotherapy, as MI counselors directly attempt to get clients to consider making behavioral change (rather than wait for them to come to conclusions themselves). Its primary purpose is to resolve ambivalence and help clients become able to make healthy choices freely.
