Conditions and Issues Treated
Substance Abuse + Addiction Treatment at Burrell Behavioral Health - Cherry Street
Some addicts can benefit from substance abuse treatment, which is designed to help them become and remain sober without the use of medications. These programs are typically used by those struggling with drugs like marijuana or hallucinogens. However, they might be beneficial for those with a co-occurring mental health disorder like schizophrenia, major depression or bipolar disorder.
During this type of treatment, the addict will meet with therapists and other professionals on a regular basis to learn coping skills and healthy ways to deal with their addiction and mental health disorder.
Treatment programs often combine medications with counseling, support groups and even medical services like those found in hospitals or doctor’s offices. There are also detoxification services that addicts can use to get sober and avoid severe withdrawal symptoms.
Levels of Care
This center offers a variety of custom treatment tailored to individual recovery. Currently available are Drug Rehab, Inpatient, Intensive Outpatient, Outpatient, with additional therapies available as listed below.
Inpatient rehab means you live there while your addiction or co-occurring disorder is treated. Prescribed medications are used along with counseling.
This type of rehabilitation provides a drug-free environment for people who struggle with chronic/long-term addiction (or their own home). Jobs or school can be put on hold until after the stay to focus solely on recovery.
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 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.
Therapies & Programs
During individual therapy at Burrell Behavioral Health - Cherry Street in , the person in recovery meets with a therapist one on one to go over their situation and learn from past mistakes. The counselor or therapist will use this time to address the causes of addiction, triggers, and any mental issue or dual diagnosis. They will also address aftercare plans, giving them the best chances of long-term sobriety.
This therapeutic process is very intense and challenging to go through. Some clients may find it easier to open up with someone apart from their family or loved ones who understand their struggles and experience with addiction.
Family therapy is designed to help addicts get clean and sober by using what they love the most; their family. Most drug treatment centers make it mandatory that the addict’s family attend therapy sessions, which is great because having everyone there to support them makes it much easier for them to get clean. 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.
Drug addicts are often surrounded by resentful or uneducated family members who would, at times, rather see them stay addicted because it makes their own lives easier. Sometimes they don’t understand what the addiction is or how they play a part in it. 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.
