They offer outpatient medical detox, and you’ll be seen by a physician within 24 hours of signing up for the program. Medical detox includes medications to help you withdraw from drugs or alcohol more comfortably, avoiding the worst withdrawal symptoms. The medications also reduce your cravings. The service is available Monday through Friday.
Once you’ve detoxed, you’ll then work on understanding your unique situation and what caused your addiction. This will include any co-occurring mental health issues you have. The main avenue of treatment in the program is cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). CBT addresses the stream of thoughts that run through your mind each day and how those thoughts and beliefs shape your emotions and behaviors.
CBT cuts through the addiction cycle of shame and guilt, efforts at abstaining, and the triggers to alcohol and drug use to help you break free from the need to use. CBT is a proven, evidence based therapy that helps with mental health issues in addition to substance use.
Your first two CBT sessions will be devoted to assessing your situation and coming up with a treatment plan. After that, you’ll have regular sessions to address your goals. CBT is goal oriented in comparison to traditional talk therapy.
You’ll work on implementing goal oriented strategies for the week between your appointments. It’s important that you take action on your own between your appointments so that you make real progress. As you become more independent and learn the CBT method, you’ll be able to reduce your sessions.
