About River City Comprehensive Counseling Services – Richmond

If you need alcohol and drug rehab services in Richmond, Virginia, you can visit River City Comprehensive Counseling Services. This center provides different levels of outpatient care for teens and adults, including partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient programs. They accept self pay and private insurance.

If you’ve recently been released from a residential treatment program and need a high level of outpatient care, their partial hospitalization program is the place to start. Here, you’ll receive intensive support that includes five days a week of full day counseling sessions. In addition to individual therapy, you’ll also attend group therapy throughout the week to talk about triggers, ways to prevent a relapse, and how to develop healthy habits.

Once you complete this program, you may step down to a less intensive level of care. Their intensive outpatient program includes about nine to 12 hours of counseling a week, including about three hours of group therapy.

One part of this program I especially like is their dedicated Peer Recovery Support program. Designed for people 21 and older, it matches you with a peer specialist who’s gone through your journey and come out on the other side. They’ll listen to you and share their own experiences to bring you hope. They can also connect you with other community resources.

Former participants in this program say the staff are open and ready to help you in any way they can. They appreciate that the team doesn’t push you into a specific treatment plan and they offer multiple services depending on your needs.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

Inpatient

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.

Intensive Outpatient

Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) are for those who want or need a very structured treatment program but who also wish to live at home and continue with certain responsibilities (such as work or school). IOP substance abuse treatment programs vary in duration and intensity, and certain outpatient rehab centers will offer individualized treatment programs.

Medically Assisted Detox

Drug and alcohol addiction often takes a heavy toll on one's body. Over time, a physical dependence can develop, meaning the body physiologically needs the substance to function. Detox is the process of removing drugs and/or alcohol from the body, a process that can be lethal if mismanaged. Medical detox is done by licensed medical professionals who monitor vital signs and keep you safe, healthy, and as comfortable as possible as you go through detox and withdrawal.

Outpatient

Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.

Partial Hospitalization Program

A partial hospitalization program (PHP) is a short-term form of intensive rehab, usually for those with acute symptoms that are hard to manage but don’t require 24-hour care. PHPs have structured programming (i.e. individual and/or group therapy), and usually meet 3-5 days a week for around 6 hours (i.e. 9am-3m). Some PHPs are residential (patients sleep on site) and some are not, so patients sleep at home. PHPs can last from 1-6 months, and some offer transportation and meals.

Programs

Adult Program

Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.

Young Adult Program

Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.
