Addiction Treatment Programs

Dual Diagnosis
Mental health concerns and substance use are often linked, which is known as a dual diagnosis. The right rehab in Ohio can help you break free. In addition to typical detox, inpatient treatment, and outpatient care, a dual diagnosis program may include medication management, additional counseling, and classes on healthy coping and other important life skills.
Drug Rehab
Drug rehab in Ohio helps clients find the motivation to make a change and gives them the tools to achieve long-term sobriety. Whether you need detox, inpatient treatment, or outpatient care, a drug treatment program will help you build a new lifestyle based on healthy coping mechanisms, better relationships, and a new way of thinking about life.

Insurance Coverage

Sliding scale payment assistance
A sliding scale payment plan can help make the costs of rehab in Ohio more affordable. By providing information about your income and family size, you can qualify for a lower fee for detox, inpatient treatment, outpatient care, and more.
Financial aid
If you qualify, financial aid programs can be a good way to pay for substance use treatment in Ohio. Financial aid directly from the treatment center is one option, or you might be able to find grants or scholarships from community groups or local non-profits.

Levels of Care

1
Outpatient Rehab
If you want to attend school or work during rehab, consider outpatient treatment in Ohio. You’ll live independently except when you’re attending rehab. Outpatient treatment is less intensive than inpatient care and may include both counseling and attendance at a 12-step or other recovery support group.

Therapies

Cognitive Behavior Therapy
Cognitive behavioral therapy in Ohio gives you tools to challenge your thinking patterns. Your underlying core beliefs can cause you to automatically react in certain ways. CBT helps you identify these immediate responses, challenge them, and choose a healthier response.
Group Therapy
Overcoming substance use is easier if you’re not alone. During group therapy in Ohio, you’ll hear others’ perspectives and get the support you need. Group therapy can be part of detox, inpatient treatment, and outpatient care. It’s generally combined with individual counseling, activities, life-skills classes, and relapse prevention planning.
Trauma Therapy
Many people with addiction issues in Ohio 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. Trauma-informed therapy is one element of rehab treatment, which also includes activities, peer support, individual and group counseling, relapse prevention, and more. Together, all these methods support you in establishing long-term recovery.
