Detox is a drug rehab process that is designed to remove the drug addict from the drug safely. The problem with solely using detox as a sobriety tool is that it alone provides no therapy or counseling. If a person goes through detox and returns to their everyday life, they may begin using again once the detox has worn off.
Detox does not help with cravings, so for some addicts, this can be extremely difficult and should be both done and supervised by medical professionals. Aftercare is crucial, so selecting a facility that offers additional services is important.
An outpatient treatment program is set up to help with alcohol or drug addiction, or a co-occurring disorder. The patient must attend the Wisconsin facility for their therapy and other programs but are able to return home each night. The frequency of mandatory attendance decreases after much of Journey Mental Health Center‘s program is complete.
Treatment is just the first step to maintaining sobriety. After treatment, aftercare support at Journey Mental Health Center helps the individual adjust to a life without substances. This support may involve a sober living home in or near Madison, WI, career counseling, or educational assistance. This is when a relapse prevention plan begins to take shape.
Journey Mental Health Center‘s Therapies & Programs
Treatment programs include individual therapy for the greatest chances of success. Customized individual therapy is counseling involving you and your Journey Mental Health Center counselor. Individual therapy leads to greater peace and understanding about your triggers for addiction.
Spousal relationships bear the brunt of alcohol and drug dependence. It becomes critical to submit the relationship to couples therapy to prevent straining it further. Some facilities like Journey Mental Health Center in Madison, WI offer couples therapy options to manage intimate partnerships amid the recovery process. Other couples-focused treatment plans can provide the patient and their partner tools to get things back to normal.
When family members are more proactive and involved in the treatment procedure, it encourages the patient to advance his or her progress. Moreover, it shouldn’t be ignored that genetics play a role when it comes to addiction, so it’s better to approach the problem as a unit. Also, with proper education, family members can help an individual avoid addiction triggers and guide him or her in making lifestyle changes necessary for his or her sobriety.
It has been said that unhealed trauma is the root of most addictions. Trauma therapy is a way of addressing trauma while in a safe situation in order to heal. Healing past traumas and introducing coping strategies are strong foundations for sustained recovery from addiction. This may involve individual or group counseling or both, in a Madison, WI facility. Other forms of therapy have been proven to assist in healing past traumas.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) helps those who attend Journey Mental Health Center understand how their feelings, beliefs, and thoughts affect their behaviors. DBT is particularly useful for people with self-harming behaviors, as well as those with substance abuse disorders. DBT teaches people how to tolerate distress, regulate their emotions, and how to become mindful.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a type of psychotherapy that 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 substance abuse disorders, and if not recognized, they can cause co-occurring disorders.
CBT involves strategies that help to change the thinking and behavioral pattern by cognitive restructuring. In simple terms, it helps to remove negative thoughts and provides long-term benefits. Also, CBT promotes self-awareness, self-control, and healthy ways to respond to negative thoughts. It can be administered as a mono-therapy as well as a part of combination therapy.

Madison, Wisconsin Addiction and Treatment
Wisconsin has some of the highest rates in the United States for both adolescent and adult substance abuse. Since 2009, the state has been experiencing the same escalating rates of drug abuse and addiction as the rest of the country. The major concerns are the misuse of prescription painkillers and the escalating number of deaths due to alcohol-related liver disease.
Madison, Wisconsin, situated between Lakes Mendota and Monona, offers a vibrant food scene, outdoor activities, and a thriving arts and entertainment scene. The city's natural beauty, healthy lifestyle, and cultural attractions make it an ideal place for those in drug rehab to recover while staying active and engaged. However, from 2019-2021, Dane County, which includes Madison, saw a 51% increase in opioid-related deaths and more than 85% of drug overdoses in 2022 involved fentanyl, highlighting a concerning trend in substance abuse.
