Outpatient Treatments for Substance Use Disorders
Their individual therapy uses several treatment methods based on patient needs. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) helps clients identify and change their negative behaviors and feelings by focusing on developing healthy coping strategies instead of substance use. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) teaches clients to inspect their thoughts and feelings without judgment, find ways to self-soothe or distract from emotions, recognize and manage intense emotions, and improve interactions with others.
Therapists are trained in eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR). EMDR reduces post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms, improves coping skills, and allows the client to process and heal from trauma-related disorders.
Their intensive outpatient programs (IOP) uses group therapy. This provides support, decreases the sense of isolation, strengthens social skills, and allows a client to feel accepted. This program also uses DBT.
Motivational interviewing (MI) encourages clients to move from a state of being unsure about change to a state of being ready to act. Family therapy educates a family on how to motivate and support the client, how to set boundaries, and how to prevent relapse.
