The first step begins with a medical and psychiatric evaluation. They will use these exams to figure out the severity of your addiction and any mental health disorders. They use the results to create a care plan for you.

The early days of your residential treatment is known as detox. You may be given medication to control many of the unpleasant withdrawal symptoms that are common when quitting substances. You’ll be carefully monitored and regularly evaluated to ensure you are comfortable and healthy as you progress in your recovery.

Every client’s need is unique. You may be slowly tapered off the medication as you move forward in your treatment. Or, depending on co-occurring mental health disorders, you may need long-term medication management. Experiential treatments may include yoga, art and music therapy, and recreational therapy. During your treatment, you’ll take part in individual and group therapy and possibly family therapy as well. You’ll work with your counselor to create an aftercare plan for your next steps once you leave treatment.
