As our clients near the end of their residential treatment for substance use disorder, we offer continuing recovery services at our recovery center, where you will receive the same individualized treatment and professional therapy you had during your inpatient or outpatient experience, but through an ongoing “extended stay” model.
Our treatments include:
- 12-Step Meetings
- Family Therapy
- Group Therapy
- Recreational Therapy
- Mental Health and Dual Diagnosis Treatment
- Evidence-Based Therapies (CBT, EMDR, DBT)
While you benefit from continuing therapy, treatment, and support groups, you will also receive important lessons in mindfulness, relapse prevention, and aftercare planning. You will work with counselors to prepare for the next phase of your recovery and ongoing sobriety, including appropriate treatment programs, housing, work, and self-care plans.
By the time you leave our Extended Care program, you will have the tools necessary to reintegrate into everyday life outside of treatment.
What is Extended Care for drug rehabilitation?
These programs provide ongoing treatment and sobriety support after an individual graduates from inpatient and outpatient levels of care, including individual and group therapies.
Who qualifies for Extended Care in drug rehab?
These services are ideal for those who have graduated from rehabilitation and need ongoing support and a sober community to reduce the risk of relapse.
What services are included in Extended Care programs?
Some of the most common services provided include:
- Group Therapy
- Individual Therapy
- Relapse Prevention
- Life Skills Development
- Vocational or Educational Support
- Holistic Therapies
How is Extended Care different from other rehab programs?
These programs don’t necessarily have a schedule that is as rigid as you’d experience during a residential or outpatient program. Extended Care offers less frequent sessions over a longer period, emphasizing long-term stability and integration into sober living.
Does Extended Care treat co-occurring mental health disorders?
Some programs do include dual diagnosis treatment, addressing anxiety or depression alongside substance use disorders.
How does Extended Care help prevent relapse?
It provides ongoing accountability, relapse prevention tools, peer support, and strategies to manage triggers, helping clients build resilience and maintain sobriety in real-world settings.
What happens after completing Extended Care?
Clients often transition to aftercare, which typically consists of:
- Support Groups
- 12-step programs
- Counseling
- A Sober Community
