Life After Rehab
At the end of a rehab program, you may feel like you have successfully defeated your demons and are ready to return to your life. While you may feel healthy and ready to take on the world, those demons are still with you, and your external triggers are still out there. The coping skills you developed during your inpatient addiction treatment program will help you, but sometimes they will not be enough in life after rehab. That is where an outpatient treatment program comes in handy.
Through our outpatient addiction treatment program, you will continue to receive the support you need from therapists and peers that will help with maintaining your sobriety with the same treatment you would receive through an inpatient treatment program.
Our team supports you with programs such as:
- Group therapy
- Individual therapy
- Family counseling
- Personalized treatment
- Medication-assisted treatment
At Arkview Recovery Center, our rehab center offers residential and outpatient treatment programs to give you the best chances at maintaining sobriety. Our center is peaceful and welcoming and will help you relax while focusing on your continuing addiction recovery.
Maintaining Sobriety Outside of a Rehab Program
You’ve been through a lot during your rehab program and made massive progress toward maintaining sobriety. However, relapse is a risk. Most relapses will occur within the first six months after completing a residential addiction treatment program. Continuing treatment is necessary to give you the additional help you need.
Partial Hospitalization Program
A partial hospitalization program (PHP) is for those patients who have completed a residential treatment program and still need daily meetings and support while beginning to transition back to their home or a transitional sober living environment. You will attend daily meetings at a rehab center until you feel ready to move to the next stage in your addiction recovery.
Intensive Outpatient Program
For those who feel more confident in their new coping skills and determination to stay on the right track, an intensive outpatient program (IOP) can help as you get back to your work and home life. You will continue your addiction recovery through group and individual meetings a few hours a week, discussing your cravings and struggles with maintaining sobriety.
It may not be easy to adjust to your new social life and all your activities with your friends. Generally, those events centered around drugs and alcohol. Through PHP or IOP options, you will have a chance to enjoy the things you did before rehab with your new sober friends, such as movies, game nights, or playing sports.
