Addiction Treatment Programs

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.

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.

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.
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.
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.
