Addiction Treatment Programs

Dual Diagnosis
A dual diagnosis, when you have mental health and substance use concerns, can make recovery harder. Be sure to choose a rehab in Missouri that can address both issues. A mental health diagnosis can feed into an addiction, making both worse. In a dual diagnosis program, these concerns are addressed along with typical evidence-based detox, inpatient treatment, and outpatient care.
Alcohol Rehab
Facilities that offer alcohol rehab in Missouri can give you the skills and tools you need to break free from alcohol use disorder. High-quality treatment lays a foundation for sobriety and helps prevent relapses by giving you new ways of thinking, better coping skills, and a better understanding of key life skills such as emotional regulation and communication.
Opioid Addiction
If you’re ready to overcome opioid addiction, a high-quality rehab in Missouri can give you the tools you need. Whether you need detox, inpatient treatment, or outpatient care, an opioid program will help you build a new lifestyle based on healthy coping mechanisms, better relationships, and a new way of thinking about life.
Drug Rehab
The goal of a drug rehab in Missouri is to give you the tools and skills you need to achieve long-term recovery. Common services include counseling and classes on coping skills, emotional management, communication, and other key life skills. Drug rehab programs can provide inpatient or outpatient treatment.

Levels of Care

1
Outpatient Rehab
There are multiple options for addiction treatment in Missouri. Outpatient treatment allows you to live at home or in sober living while attending several hours of treatment per week. Finishing residential treatment is a big step, and outpatient care allows you to have support while you learn to apply your new skills and habits in real-life situations.
2
Partial Hospitalization Program
If you struggle with addiction in Missouri, a partial hospitalization program (PHP) is one option for rehab. You’ll get intensive treatment but live at home or in sober living outside of sessions. During PHP treatment, clients are able to work on their recovery through counseling, activities, and holistic treatment like mindfulness, art therapy, and more.

Therapies

Cognitive Behavior Therapy
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) in Missouri helps you address the thinking patterns that are holding you back from a better life. As you learn to identify thought distortions, your confidence in your ability to manage a wide variety of situations will grow. You’ll have the tools you need to address problems and manage triggers in a healthy way.
Family Therapy
Your family can be an important part of your support network, but you may have to work through conflict and broken relationships first. Family therapy in Missouri gives you that opportunity. Substance use treatment includes detox, inpatient treatment, and outpatient care, and family therapy may be a part of each of these stages. The goal is to help families address past events and broken relationships and develop healthy ways of relating to each other.
Group Therapy
You’re not alone as you work through addiction in Missouri. Group therapy will help you connect with others in similar positions so you can support and encourage each other. Sessions generally last 60 to 90 minutes and give you a chance to discover others’ experiences, hear about the impact of substance use, and learn important new life skills.
Individual Therapy
Talking about what you’ve experienced is an important way to heal, and individual therapy in Missouri gives you that opportunity. During individual therapy, you have the freedom and confidentiality to share personal issues and past experiences that may impact your substance use. Your therapist will help you work through those concerns and develop new ways of handling them.
