Addiction Treatment Programs

Dual Diagnosis
Iowa dual diagnosis treatment is an integrated approach that addresses both your mental health and substance use. In dual diagnosis programs, the activities, peer support, and counseling are tailored to the unique needs of those with mental health concerns. This may include additional therapy, medication, or peer support.

Insurance Coverage

Medicare
In Iowa, using Medicare to pay for rehab can allow you to get the care you need. Your insurance plan can pay for some or all of the costs of rehab, especially if you choose a center that’s in the Medicare plan’s network. Be sure to get the full details before you start treatment.
Medicaid
Paying for rehab in Iowa can be done in multiple ways, including using Medicaid if you qualify. This can be helpful for those struggling to pay for treatment. Look for centers that accept Medicaid and offer the levels of care you need, such as detox, inpatient, and outpatient treatment.

Therapies

Individual Therapy
It’s easy to feel isolated when you battle substance use, but individual therapy in Iowa can give you a professional ally in overcoming the roots of addiction. Substance use treatment includes detox, inpatient treatment, and outpatient care, and individual therapy may be a part of each of these stages. The goal is to help clients address the roots of addiction, develop motivation to change, and create new habits for a substance-free life.
Family Therapy
One way to address the family conflict and challenging relationships that may impact your substance use is during family therapy in Iowa. Family therapy is a common part of both inpatient and outpatient substance use treatment and may be used to help address trauma, build better relationships, and help loved ones become part of your support network.
Trauma Therapy
Sometimes addiction is a way to self-medicate and avoid how you feel about past traumatic events. Trauma-informed therapy can help you address these feelings and build a better life. Substance use and trauma are interrelated, and trauma-informed therapy involves working with the therapist and your support network to create healthy coping skills, become empowered, and improve resilience.
Cognitive Behavior Therapy
When you’re struggling with addiction in Iowa, your actions and thoughts may not be rational. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) can help you challenge your thoughts and adjust your actions accordingly. CBT can help you identify and challenge maladaptive thoughts, calm your mind, and face your fears rationally.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy
When you’re struggling with addiction in Iowa, stressful situations can be a trigger. Dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) allows you to learn new coping strategies and build your confidence so you can make healthier decisions. DBT can help you replace problem behaviors with skills that give you a healthier way to manage stress and handle substance use triggers.
