Levels of Care

1
Outpatient Rehab
If you want to attend school or work during rehab, consider outpatient treatment in Michigan. You’ll live independently except when you’re attending rehab. Building a new life for yourself takes time, and it’s important to have enough support throughout the process. Outpatient treatment allows you to have more intensive or less intensive help, depending on your needs.

Therapies

Dialectical Behavior Therapy
Dialectical behavioral therapy in Michigan gives you tools to learn new behaviors to improve and change your life. Substance use treatment includes detox, inpatient treatment, and outpatient care, and DBT may be a part of each of these stages. The goal is to help clients develop the skills they need to solve the problems they face without substance use.
Experiential Therapy
If you’re struggling with substance use in Michigan, experiential therapy can help you work through emotions so you can make positive changes. By participating in art, music, or physical activities like hiking, you can learn to face internal issues without turning to substance use. Instead, you’ll develop healthy coping mechanisms.
Family Therapy
Overcoming substance use is easier if you have support from your loved ones. During family therapy in Michigan, you can address challenging relationships and family conflicts to restore peace and make recovery easier. There are several goals in family therapy. Some sessions may be focused on specific past events, while others address current broken relationships or how good intentions have gone astray. Over time, family relationships can be restored, making recovery easier.
Group Therapy
Overcoming substance use is easier if you’re not alone. During group therapy in Michigan, you’ll hear others’ perspectives and get the support you need. Substance use treatment includes detox, inpatient treatment, and outpatient care, and group therapy may be a part of each of these stages. The goal is to help clients support each other, provide accountability, and relate to each other’s experiences.
Individual Therapy
Individual therapy in Michigan helps clients overcome substance use by providing individualized, confidential support. Some of the topics covered in individual therapy include developing healthy coping skills, addressing past events that may have played a part in substance use, and building a support network.
Trauma Therapy
Many people with addiction issues in Michigan use substances to decrease difficult feelings such as guilt, shame, fear, and more. Trauma-informed therapy can help you understand where these feelings come from and how to deal with them in a better way. Both inpatient treatment and outpatient care can include trauma-informed therapy, which helps you create a feeling of safety, access peer support, embrace the validity of your feelings, and create healthy coping skills.
