Conditions and Issues Treated
Substance Abuse Treatment is important when getting sober, as it helps addicts learn the skills they need to live a clean life. There are many different kinds of recovery treatment, including but not limited to medication-assisted therapy, behavioral therapeutic approaches, self-help groups, and counseling. Each treatment has its benefits that help addicts recover.
Counseling can help addicts learn the skills they need to live sober lives. It can be used to treat underlying mental health issues, like depression or anxiety, that could lead to relapse. Counseling can also help people find work, deal with family problems, and learn to manage living without drugs.
Levels of Care Offered
This center offers a variety of custom treatment tailored to individual recovery. Currently available are Aftercare Support, Detox, Drug Rehab, Inpatient, Intensive Outpatient, Outpatient, Partial-Hospitalization, with additional therapies available as listed below.
Detox is an integral part of recovery and often very hard. Detoxification is the process of letting the body remove the drugs in it. It addresses the physical aspect of addiction. Detox from drugs can be unsafe as the patient undergoes withdrawal symptoms that range from headaches, vomiting, body aches to seizures and cardiac arrests. The main purpose of detox is to keep the drug users comfortable as the drugs leave their system.
Quitting cold turkey is not recommended and can lead to many issues. Detox is best done under medical supervision so that a team of experts can monitor the side effects and complications. Detox, alone, does not guarantee sobriety as the underlying psychological issues are not addressed.
Inpatient treatment is a form of recovery used in drug rehab. Inpatient recovery offers individual therapy, groups, and family therapy to ensure that the addict has the best recovery possible. A variety of treatments are provided in this type of recovery, depending on what treatment the addict needs at that particular time.
The length of inpatient addiction treatment depends on the addict and their addiction. Inpatient rehabilitation can last anywhere from 30 days to 90 days, depending on how severe the drug abuse is. Inpatient rehab is a costly drug treatment, costing anywhere from $30k- to $60k. However, insurance often offers help in covering these costs.
An intensive outpatient program (IOP) is effective for drug rehab, but it can take six months to several years to complete. It’s the most popular type of drug rehab program in the United States. One example of a successful IOP success story is actor and comedian Chris Rock, sober since 1990.
An IOP allows participants to spend nights at home while attending meetings throughout the day. It’s a good way for drug addicts to make a recovery plan in an outpatient setting while still supporting their loved ones.
Alcohol or drug addiction, or co-occurring disorders, are treated in an outpatient program. The patient must attend therapy and other programs at the facility but can return home each night.
Outpatient treatment allows recovering addicts to live at home while receiving addiction treatment. Outpatients can attend group sessions for a few hours per week. Outpatients may also continue to work full time and study/attend school without interruption if they choose.
A popular way of getting drug treatment is through a Partial Hospitalization Program. These programs are short and intensive, allowing for more freedom in family visits. Patients can check in with the program anywhere from 18 to 30 hours per week but only sleep at home at night. The program may last anywhere from one to six months.
The accomplishment of completing a drug or alcohol treatment program is just the first step. Once that is complete, aftercare support comes into play. This includes helping people adjust to life without substances outside of guidelines with assistance like getting sober living accommodations and career counseling and AA/NA programs for those who are struggling between sobriety or want continued help in maintaining it once they have completed their initial rehabilitation at an addiction facility.
Aftercare comprises services that help recovering addicts readjust to normal day-to-day activities while working on specific issues. These problems include psychiatric issues, family problems caused by substance abuse, continuing education pursuits if desired during rehab, etc. These can last up to one year+ depending on what’s needed most urgently upon completion of earlier stages.
Therapies & Programs
Different people react differently to various treatment options. Some drug rehabilitation centers offer individualized treatment that caters to the specific needs of a drug addict. The best treatment option varies on an individual depending on the type of drug abused, life history, medical condition of the person, social circumstances, and the environment they live in now.
When a person enters drug rehab, they usually have anti-drug associations such as withdrawal symptoms, stress, cravings, etc. The first step of drug rehab is to detoxify the body from any residual substances in it. Drug rehabilitation centers usually employ trained medical professionals to help in this process. Usually, the initial detoxification lasts for five days, where the person is monitored under close supervision.
Family therapy sessions typically involve the addict and their family members. During these sessions, a therapist will work with everyone involved to help them understand addiction and find healthy ways of coping without substance abuse.
Some addicts might feel embarrassed about their substance abuse problems. By encouraging family members to attend these sessions, therapists can show addicts that they’re not alone in dealing with addiction. Therapists can also work with family members to help them understand addiction and learn how to offer support and encouragement to their loved one as they deal with substance abuse issues.
Attending group therapy at Heroes' Mile in , is a useful way for those seeking sobriety to realize they aren’t the only one going through it.
This is when a group of people on different recovery phases get together and talk about what they’re going through, their triggers, successes, and failures. This can include alternative types of therapies too! Group therapy may occur on an outpatient or inpatient basis with groups that have no pre-existing relationships outside the session, unlike support groups where everyone already knows each other beforehand.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is a type of psychotherapy that helps people address the thoughts and behaviors that may have led to their addiction. It also helps change negative thoughts into positive ones and promotes healthy communication between addicts and those around them. CBT is an efficient treatment for individuals suffering from all sorts of addictions.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the underlying thoughts and behaviors that caused the problem of addiction in the first place and may cause a relapse. Negative feelings are common in drug abuse disorders, but they can lead to co-occurring disorders if not recognized. CBT involves strategies that help to change the behavior pattern by restructuring negative thoughts into positive ones. It helps to remove these feelings, and it provides long-term benefits. Also, CBT promotes self-awareness, self-control and can be administered as a mono-therapy or as part of combination therapy.
Good nutrition can be difficult for people recovering from addiction because they may not feel like eating while they are experiencing the physical and emotional side effects of detoxing.
Nutrition therapy can help addicts in the following ways:
- Helps individuals to understand which foods promote good health and support recovery that will assist them during detox
- Provides guidance and education about how to maintain a nutritious diet so they can stay healthy during recovery
- Improves their overall health and well-being, which can reduce the severity of substance withdrawal symptoms.
Nicotine replacement therapy is a popular method of treatment that helps individuals overcome their addiction to cigarettes by providing them with safer alternatives. Nicotine replacement options can include:
- Inhalers
- Gum
- Patches
These treatments are often used in combination with other therapies, such as cognitive behavioral therapy or motivational interviewing, to help individuals more easily transition into a smoking-free lifestyle.

Experiential Therapy at Heroes' Mile
Experiential therapy is a type of therapeutic approach that focuses on having patients work through problems, issues, or emotions by engaging directly in some real experience. It occurs face-to-face with a therapist who helps these people to explore their feelings first hand. The hope is that when this happens, the patient will feel driven to turn away from their destructive behavior and instead take up positive behaviors or coping mechanisms. Direct experience methods, role play, psychodrama, interpersonal and social learning are a few different forms of experiential therapy.

Fitness Therapy
To recover from addiction, one needs to recover the body and mind. Addiction can harm your health in many ways. Learning how to take care of yourself includes physical fitness. Exercise releases feel-good hormones and further contributes to positive self-esteem. Self-discipline can be practiced through an exercise regimen as you learn how to take care of yourself.
