After detox, clients transition into inpatient or outpatient programs that can include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), and motivational enhancement therapy in individual and group settings. Social services are also available for homelessness, food security, and career coaching. The center may make referrals to outside facilities and programs.
