Detox is an important first step in any substance use disorder treatment program. It’s important to rid your body of toxins to break the physical dependency on alcohol and drugs. Their detox program has 24/7 physician directed nursing care. Withdrawal symptoms such as nausea, gastrointestinal distress, and shaking can be uncomfortable. If you’re experiencing a lot of discomfort, the staff will give you medication to ease the symptoms.

MAT is a helpful treatment for opioid withdrawal since it can stop your brain from realizing you’re in withdrawal. Medications like Suboxone or methadone are commonly used for MAT. If necessary, you can stay on MAT for the long term or it can be used to taper off of opioids.

While you’re in detox, you’ll participate in numerous therapies to help with the psychological aspects of withdrawal and sobriety. Many people with substance use disorder have co-occurring mental health challenges such as bipolar disorder or depression. Therapy helps you identify co occurring disorders so you can address those in therapy or with medication management.

Some of the therapies offered include motivational interviewing (MI), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and acceptance and commitment therapy. These therapies help you accept your substance use and behavioral health challenges and commit to change and recovery.

CBT is especially helpful with turning your negative thoughts into more positive thought patterns. You’ll also work on mindfulness to help you recognize and separate your emotional response to physical pain. Mindfulness helps by reducing the severity of your withdrawal symptoms. Once you’re through withdrawal, your treatment team will help you with an aftercare plan. This may include continuing in the inpatient program or moving to an outpatient program.
