    Conditions and Issues Treated

    Addiction to prescription opioid painkillers like oxycodone and hydrocodone, and illicit opioids such as heroin, leads to potentially life-threatening withdrawal symptoms when discontinued.

Treatment also includes comprehensive mental health counseling.

    Levels of Care Offered

    This center offers a variety of custom treatment tailored to individual recovery. Currently available are Aftercare Support, Drug Rehab, Outpatient, Residential, with additional therapies available as listed below.

    To assist with alcohol or opioid abuse, or a co-occurring condition, Bridge Over Troubled Waters offers an outpatient treatment program. For their rehabilitation and other services, the Massachusetts patient will go to the treatment center, yet return home every night. After most of the program is completed, the level of mandatory participation reduces.

    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.

    Treatment is just a first step in sustaining sobriety. After rehabilitation, counseling for aftercare helps the person adapt to a life without drugs. A sober living facility in Boston, job therapy, or educational assistance may be included in this service, managed by Bridge Over Troubled Waters. This is when a preventive strategy for relapse starts to take shape.

    Bridge Over Troubled Waters‘s Therapies & Programs

    In addiction recovery at Bridge Over Troubled Waters, therapy plays a significant role. This helps patients get to the root of their addiction and discover how the problems that contributed to their use can be handled better. Therapy can be performed in a group and one on one settings. The patient interacts with the therapist in a one-on-one atmosphere during individual therapy. This encourages them to reflect on the underlying addiction problems and develop ways to avoid potential future abuse.

    Recovering from addiction involves recovering relationships as well. One of the most common areas of stress and damage during addiction is in intimate relationships. Couples therapy at Bridge Over Troubled Waters can rebuild trust and joy that may have been damaged. Addiction involves everyone in the family, not only the addict.

    In group therapy, the patient undergoes sessions with other patients at Bridge Over Troubled Waters who are dealing with similar problems. The members of the group interact with each other and talk freely about their issues at scheduled sessions. Group therapy reduces the feeling of loneliness and improves the coping skills of the patients. You are not alone in Boston, Massachusetts.
