Detoxification
Center for Recovery’s Detox philosophy begins with compassion and comfort. We have created a detoxification protocol that gently eases the patient through their physical dependence.

Detox protocol is designed to reduce and sometimes eliminate the symptoms associated with withdrawal from addictive substances. In this initial phase of treatment, a team of highly qualified medical and addiction professionals assesses each individuals needs. Everyone is provided with a comprehensive physical examination by a licensed physician and lab work to determine if any medical problems are present. It is during this time, that the decision is made whether a person is in need of detoxification.

Some of the most frequent addictions that require detoxification are opiates, benzodiazepine, alcohol,club drugs, and barbiturates. We also stabilize clients who may be uncomfortable when coming off other drugs such as cocaine, crack, marijuana,and crystal methamphetamine. Clients meet with their Primary Therapist to complete a bio-psychosocial assessment, which forms the basis of their treatment program. Clients in this phase are acclimated to the treatment program and begin to focus on their preliminary treatment plan. This phase also concentrates on the first step.

Residential and Partial Hospitalization Treatment
In this phase of treatment the client begins to participate in a variety of educational, group,individual and family therapies. New insight is experienced as to why life has become so unmanageable. Clients then learn to manage and confront the issues at the very heart of their behavior and disease. These issues include but are not limited to: resentment, depression, shame, sexual or physical abuse, codependency, associated disorders and the dynamics that accompany family life. In addition to participating in all of the innovative therapy Center for Recovery has to offer, everyone is encouraged to attend 12 step support groups to further solidify their recovery.

This multi-disciplinary treatment program is an intensive treatment offered to adults 18 years of age and older. The Residential Program is for people who experience moderate substance abuse problems. The Residential Program is a cost-effective program which provides the structure and intensity of an all-day program and a special supervised living program that allows our clients to reside at our facility while attending their treatment programs. A team of professionals, led by the
patient’s therapist, medically supervises the individuals program and sets the treatment goals.Our treatment plan offers clients the opportunity to participate in group therapy and educational groups while learning coping and problem-solving skills. Individualized treatment includes group psychotherapy, education for life management and stress reduction education. The therapeutic focus is on symptom relief, problem solving skills and improving the person’s ability to function independently.Clients participate in structured treatment six days per week, usually for six hours each day. Self-help meetings are scheduled for the evening.Our goal is to provide a safe and secure treatment.Length of stay is determined by individual patient’s needs and the evaluation of the treatment team.

Daily Schedule
The daily schedule is comprised of the following modalities: Community Meetings, Lectures, Films/Videos,Step Groups, Process Groups, Case Management/Treatment Planning Groups, Individual Counseling, Family Workshop, Recreation/Fitness/Activities Therapy,Meditation and Introduction to Self-Help Groups.The client schedule begins at 8:00am ending at 10:00pm with evening meditation.

Intensive Outpatient Care
There are those individuals whose addiction or alcoholism has not progressed to the point where
inpatient treatment is indicated. As such,Center for Recovery has developed an Intensive Outpatient Program, designed to meet those specific needs.

Intensive Outpatient is comprised of educational classes, experiential groups, individual and family therapy. Prior to admission, a thorough evaluation is performed to establish a person’s appropriateness for Outpatient. This level of care is not for
everyone and we pay special attention when it comes to matching a person’s clinical, medical and psychiatric needs to a particular level of
care.

Family Programs
Recognizing that the disease of addiction and alcoholism is a family disease, every attempt is made to include all members of the family in the process of recovery. Family members will be encouraged to participate in our family Program, which promotes the "healing" of the whole family and not just the person in treatment.

For those of you who find yourselves unable to
attend the Family Program, healing can begin by phone and continue with a referral to a licensed family therapist in your area. Attendance at family support groups is always encouraged (Al-anon or Nar-anon). If for some reason you have difficulty locating a group in your area, please feel free to call us and we will be more than happy to assist you.
