Addiction Treatment Programs

Alcohol Rehab
The goal of an alcohol rehab in Ohio is to give you the tools and skills you need to achieve long-term recovery. The rehab program may use multiple approaches, including nutrition, psychology, holistic methods, and support groups. These tools help you build a substance-free lifestyle and move into long-term recovery.
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.
Opioid Addiction
In Ohio, rehab provides a combination of therapy and education to help clients overcome opioid addiction. Opioid treatment programs address the mental, emotional, and relational issues that may contribute to addiction. You’ll learn to build a new support network that supports your long-term sobriety.
Adult Program
An adult program in Ohio addresses the recovery needs of clients in this life stage and gives them the tools they need to succeed. In addition to typical detox, inpatient treatment, and outpatient care, an adult program may also teach clients about building a career, saving for retirement, parenting, and more.
Men's Rehab
Men’s rehab programs in Ohio address the unique needs of men in a safe, gender-specific environment. In addition to typical detox, inpatient treatment, and outpatient care, a men’s program may also teach clients about having healthy relationships, fatherhood, building a career, and more.
Women's Rehab
A women’s rehab in Ohio addresses the unique needs women have and allows them to build relationships in a gender-specific environment. In addition to typical detox, inpatient treatment, and outpatient care, a women’s program may also teach clients about motherhood, building a career, being safe in relationships, and more.
Young Adult Rehab
Young people need unique support, and a young adult rehab in Ohio can help them learn new life skills while overcoming addiction. In addition to typical detox, inpatient treatment, and outpatient care, a young adult program may also teach clients about living independently, budgeting, having healthy relationships, parenting, and more.

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.
2
Aftercare Support
Aftercare in Ohio is focused on helping you access the resources and ongoing support you need to stay sober long-term. Aftercare services help provide stability as you establish your new life and may include help with employment, housing, sober activities, making friends, and finding long-term support.
3
Intervention Services
Don’t be afraid to use intervention in Ohio to help your loved one face the truth and decide to seek help. Your family will get support through counseling, help arranging the intervention, and assistance facilitating your loved one’s transition to treatment.

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.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy
Dialectical behavioral therapy in Ohio gives you tools to learn new behaviors to improve and change your life. You probably have unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that you have inadvertently practiced for years. DBT helps you identify these behaviors and choose a healthier response.
Family Therapy
Overcoming substance use is easier if you have support from your loved ones. During family therapy in Ohio, you can address challenging relationships and family conflicts to restore peace and make recovery easier. Family therapy is a normal part of evidence-based treatment programs and may be a part of inpatient treatment, outpatient care, or both. Topics include addressing past events, overcoming codependence and enablement, and building healthy, supportive relationships with each other.
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.
Individual Therapy
Individual therapy in Ohio helps clients overcome substance use by providing individualized, confidential support. A professional therapist can help you identify substance use triggers, reshape your thinking about specific topics, and address prior experiences and trauma that impact your substance use habits.
