    Conditions and Issues Treated

    Opioid + Opiate Addiction Treatment in Alamosa, CO

    Opioids are a group of drugs that include substances such as heroin, morphine, and oxycodone. These drugs activate opioid receptors in the brain, which produce pleasurable feelings. Opioid addiction occurs when drugs are abused at increasing rates or increasing amounts because the body becomes tolerant of them.

    Opioid addiction is typically diagnosed when drug abuse becomes a typical behavior that interferes with an individual’s ability to function daily. The use of the substance results in consequences like legal problems.

    Treatment for opioid addiction varies depending on each individual’s needs. Some treatments focus on replacing opioids with other drugs that have similar effects of reducing withdrawal symptoms. Other treatments aim to reduce the risk of relapse by providing psychological support or using more natural methods.

    Dual-Diagnosis

    A drug rehab center that uses Dual Diagnosis is more likely to be successful in rehabilitating a person. Dual diagnosis helps to identify and treat any co-occurring disorders. It is essential to screen for both addiction and any untreated mental health issues. A dual diagnosis gives rehab the means to treat addiction while restoring mental and emotional health.

    About 70% of patients with drug addiction have at least one other psychiatric diagnosis. Fortunately, dual diagnosis treatment is a proven model that has been highly effective.

    Levels of Care Offered

    This center offers a variety of custom treatment tailored to individual recovery. Currently available are Aftercare Support, Detox, Drug Rehab, Dual-Diagnosis, Intensive Outpatient, Outpatient, Residential, Sober-Living / Half-Way, with additional therapies available as listed below.

    Drug Detox

    Detox, or detoxification, is the method of weaning a person’s body from the toxic substance(s) they have abused. This is a slow process under medical supervision and one that should occur for almost all individuals. As detox can cause medical complications, it should always be performed by experienced medical professionals in a safe setting.

    Intensive Outpatient (IOP)

    An intensive outpatient program is usually the first phase of addiction treatment. It provides relief for those addicted, but not ready to commit to an inpatient setting. IOPs consist of a daily 3 to 5-hour program, and there is a required number of hours per week. The goal here is to teach patients healthy coping skills, such as stress management.

    Outpatient Program

    Outpatient programs offer a lower intensity level of addiction treatment than inpatient facilities. They are ideal for those who have graduated from inpatient facilities, have a supportive home environment, and are motivated to commit to the program. Services offered include medication-assisted treatment, individual and group therapy, and peer group support.

    This treatment is a popular option for those suffering from a lower intensity addiction. It is not advisable for someone who needs to go through a medically supervised detox or does not have a supportive home environment. It requires motivation and dedication to commit to the program without constant monitoring.

    Sober Living Homes are an option for those who have completed a treatment program within the past several months. However, it isn’t advisable to use this as a permanent living arrangement because it can lead to a relapse .

    The goal of a sober living home is to provide a supportive environment for recovering addicts so they don’t need to return to their previous lifestyles. The homes will not accept residents who are still using drugs or alcohol, and those living in the house must follow a set of rules dictating how they should behave to avoid relapsing.

    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.

    Aftercare Support in drug rehab is crucial because it helps people stay sober after treatment. Aftercare Support in drug rehab is helpful because it provides the recovering person with a support group, including family members, friends, and other peers who are also in recovery.

    The benefits of Aftercare Support are that it provides a pathway that will help people get sober for life. It supports healing at all levels, physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual. Another benefit of Aftercare Support is that participants learn to maintain their sobriety through holistic methods. They learn to modify behaviors individually to have peace of mind, have positive relationships with others, and find peace on the inside.

    Family Counseling

Not only are they surrounded by people who want them to get better, but everyone is there because they want the best for them, not because they feel like they have to be.

They know that during and after the addict’s sobriety journey, they will face challenges and changes that they aren’t sure how to handle. This can be very tough for an addict to go through on their own, which is why it’s so important that they have the support of their family. Just because someone is an addict does not mean that they don’t deserve the love and support of those around them.

    Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy, or REBT, is a form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy developed to help people overcome specific emotional and behavioral problems.The theory behind REBT is the belief that a person’s thinking (and resulting emotions) create their reality. By helping patients let go of certain ideas, they can reduce their feelings of anger and hostility and feel a sense of relief from rigid expectations. This, in turn, is believed to result in a reduction in both emotional and behavioral problems, impacting drug addiction.

    Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or EMDR, is another therapeutic technique typically used for addiction recovery. This type of therapy works by stimulating brain activity to help the addict process past emotions without relapsing on their drug of choice.
