About St Lawrence Addiction Treatment – Ogdensburg
Rehab has a reputation for costing an arm and a leg but it doesn’t have to. In some cases a state run rehab can offer the help you need without breaking the bank. That’s what St. Lawrence Addiction Treatment Center is. This rehab in Ogdensburg, New York is for adults with drug and alcohol addiction or gambling addiction.
When you walk into this residential rehab you’ll get a customized program that’s based on you and what you need. In fact you’ll be involved in planning your care so it’s really a collaborative process. Many former clients say that they felt genuinely respected and appreciated throughout their program thanks to that method.
As far as what you can expect this program uses multiple types of treatments and methods. You’ll have classes that teach you about addiction and preventing relapse. You’ll have therapy and possibly medications if that can help your recovery. Even though you’ll have intensive treatment that will use your time wisely there’s still plenty of time to bond with other clients. There are 40 beds so there’ll be plenty of new friends to make.
Even with customized programs there are also special programs for certain circumstances. There’s a program for women only for example. There’s also a program for people who have mental illness along with their addiction. If you have legal needs in the criminal justice system there’s a program for you too.
This rehab knows what it takes for lasting success and they set you up for that success. And because it’s run by the New York Office of Addiction Services and Supports there’s a sliding payment scale so it’s affordable too. But there’s one quick note to add: the building doesn’t have air conditioning so bring a fan if you’re going to rehab in the summer.
