Detox
Detox, also called withdrawal management, helps people manage withdrawal from alcohol, opioids, benzodiazepines, or other substances with appropriate medical or clinical support. It is often used before starting residential, inpatient, PHP, IOP, or outpatient care.
-
Intensive Inpatient Treatment
Intensive inpatient treatment provides a high level of structured care in a monitored setting. It may be appropriate when someone needs close clinical supervision, medical support, psychiatric stabilization, or a more protective treatment environment.
-
Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)
IOP provides structured treatment several days per week while allowing clients to live at home or in supportive housing. It may include group therapy, individual counseling, recovery education, medication support, and relapse prevention planning.
-
Outpatient Treatment
Outpatient treatment allows clients to receive therapy, counseling, medication support, or recovery services while continuing to live at home. It may be used as step-down care after higher levels of treatment or as ongoing support for people with stable daily structure.
-
Residential Treatment
Residential treatment provides structured care in a live-in setting. It may be appropriate when someone needs daily programming, therapy, recovery planning, and a supportive environment away from high-risk home or social situations.
-
Day Treatment / Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)
PHP provides structured daytime treatment without overnight residence. It may be used when someone needs more support than standard outpatient care but does not require 24-hour inpatient or residential treatment.
-
Co-Occurring Mental Health Treatment
Co-occurring mental health treatment focuses on mental health symptoms that appear alongside substance use concerns. It may be used when depression, anxiety, trauma, bipolar disorder, or other mental health needs affect treatment planning.
