When addiction is present, a mental health disorder is usually present as well, which is known as dual diagnosis. Within addiction treatment facilities, it’s extremely common to find instances of dual diagnosis. Treatment facilities tend to offer 24-hour access to medical and mental health staff, plus treatments that include individual and group counseling, addiction and relapse prevention education, and coping skills training. Family therapy and relationship counseling are often available as well.

Substance abuse treatment in Rhode Island is usually in a drug and alcohol rehab, who provide comprehensive addiction treatment. These programs integrate evidence-based therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), with vital educational resources, skill development, and counseling to help you reprogram unhelpful behaviors and learn new skills to manage your sobriety. Programs are usually available on an inpatient residential rehab basis, outpatient, intensive outpatient, or day treatment.

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.
