Treatment for addiction includes a large focus on mental health services while you live at the residential rehab facility and receive 24-hour care. Amenities and mental health therapeutic offerings vary, with standard treatments including individual and group counseling, relapse prevention, coping skills training, and a wealth of cognitive-behavioral therapies (CBT). Additionally, many facilities provide alternative mental health services like holistic therapies.

Outpatient rehab programs are designed to support clients who are exiting inpatient treatment and for those who prefer to remain in their own homes during active recovery. Clients in outpatient care typically integrate treatment into their ordinary daily routine, including work and school schedules. Evening, night, and weekend therapy sessions, recovery training courses, and other outpatient services are widely available to accommodate clients’ needs. Many outpatient rehabs also offer medication assisted treatment (MAT), including medication induction and maintenance.

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.
