Before diving into the specifics of outpatient treatment, it’s important to understand the overall process, which typically involves a series of steps designed to support successful recovery.
We’ve broken down the process into five general stages:
Assessment:
Initial consultation with a medical professional to evaluate the patient’s substance use history, health status, and personal needs. This helps us craft an individualized treatment plan.
Detoxification:
If necessary, the patient undergoes medically supervised detoxification. This can be done at home, with regular check-ins at our facility.
Therapy:
The cornerstone of outpatient treatment, this could include cognitive-behavioral therapy, group discussions, and other therapeutic techniques to address the root causes of addiction.
Aftercare Planning:
We work with patients to develop a robust aftercare plan, which may involve continued therapy, support groups, and strategies to avoid relapse.
Follow-up:
Regular follow-up visits are crucial to ensure the patient is maintaining sobriety and to adjust the treatment plan as necessary.
