Why Should You Seek Addiction Treatment?

It is not easy to take the first step in seeking help for substance use disorder (SUD). But recovery will allow the opportunity for a new life, full of promise and potential. It is necessary to heal in a supportive environment to ensure long term success and sobriety.

What type of Drug Addiction Treatment Options are there?

Drug addiction treatment options vary based on the type of program. Options may include detox, inpatient residential rehabilitation, or outpatient options. These options are described below:

Medical detoxification

Also known as detox in an inpatient setting. A doctor safely monitors detoxification. A plan for medication-assisted detox is implemented, so you detox comfortably. Read more about Medical detoxification.

Intensive residential treatment

Offers 24 hours a day, seven days a week care. Residential treatment is usually the best step after detox. Physical and mental health issues are addressed to help you succeed in long-term sobriety. Medical monitoring continues, along with therapy modalities, to help address underlying concerns. Residential treatment enables you to develop healthy lifestyle changes to encourage a new way of living. At Northstar Detox & Rehab Center, many stay in residential treatment for 20-60 days. Some transition to sober living after in order to have continued support in their sobriety. Read more about intensive residential treatment.

Outpatient treatment

Offers individual and group therapy to support you in your sobriety. They are not 24/7 facilities. Patients usually attend outpatient therapy 2-3 days per week for 4-6 hours. Patients also usually have individual therapy one or two times a week. With the right support network, outpatient treatment may be appropriate. However, for those who are new to sobriety, it is common to require more intensive treatment and support, primarily due to the risk of relapse.

Sober living

Sober living isr an option for those new to recovery. Sober living is not a treatment program. Sober living is a home you live in with roommates who are also on their sobriety journey. Residents usually encourage each other to attend programming, meetings and to live a sober life. Group and individual therapy is not offered on-site. Some sober living facilities will provide medication management help, but it often falls on the individual's responsibility. Many sober living homes conduct regular urine tests to ensure the sobriety and safety of residents who live there.

Dual-Diagnosis Services

Most people who have a substance use disorder have co-occurring mental health needs. Often it is the underlying mental illness that drives the individual to self-medicate with substances. We understand that a mental health condition may have been undiagnosed and untreated.

We also know that substance use can trigger the emergence of new mental health conditions. If left untreated, mental health conditions can be fatal. Our staff is dedicated to correctly diagnosing and treating underlying mental health conditions. We use practical evaluation and diagnostic tools to develop an effective treatment plan.
