About ARK Behavioral Health – Quincy
ARK Behavioral Health is a substance use disorder and dual diagnosis treatment facility for adults that is located in Quincy, Massachusetts. This is the main intake office, but this company offers three different locations in Massachusetts to serve you. They offer the full continuum of care from detox, inpatient, outpatient, and aftercare to make sure your needs are met where you stand in your journey.
Depending on the facility you go to, there’ll be some good amenities to tie you over during your recovery. Some centers have private movie theaters while others have a full gym and kitchen. Yoga studios and fitness centers can help hone your body and mind so that you’ll be much more fit than when you went in.
This facility offers detox, which is generally the first step to recovery. Detox typically takes between three and seven days, depending on the substance you have used and the severity of your addiction. You are monitored 24/7 by an experienced medical team and in some instances may require medication assisted treatment.
Medication assisted treatment (MAT) is offered here in both the detox stage and the recovery stage. MAT helps relieve some of the withdrawal symptoms, making detox a little easier. This treatment also helps curb your cravings for certain substances, helping make recovery more successful for you.
Here, there’s inpatient therapy along with outpatient therapy. They use a holistic approach and have a 12 Step support system. They offer individual and group therapy, family counseling, psychiatric care for those with dual diagnosis or co-occurring mental health issues, yoga and meditation groups, and recreational activities.
They also offer the crucial step of aftercare here. With aftercare, you may participate in sober-living or transitional housing, learning job skills, life skills, continued support groups, and recovery counseling.
