Before you can conquer alcoholism or drug addiction, it's important to fully understand them. Each person is different in how they succumb to drug abuse or addiction. We discuss how drugs can affect your body, what causes people to turn to them, and how you can recover from alcoholism or other substance abuse disorders.
Treatment of the Sub-Principal Causes of Addiction
People use substances of abuse to obtain quick highs, relieve stress, and to cope with other medical conditions. The co-occurring symptoms of mental disorders can be made worse by the use of alcohol or other drugs. We teach healthy methods to cope with negative emotions, and treat all the underlying causes.
You need to be able to relate to the person receiving treatment for alcoholism and drug abuse. You should tailor it to your specific needs. We work with each client to create a customized treatment plan. It may include counseling, therapy in groups, or medication-assisted options.
Proven Treatment Methods
We provide safe environments to help you rid yourself of alcohol or other drugs. However, detox is only the beginning. We provide healthy coping strategies, stress reduction techniques, and skill to help you achieve success.
Supporting long-term recovery
Recovery is a continuous journey. Being surrounded with support makes it easier. Support groups and guidance are key to your success in drug rehab. You have many support options, no matter if you're recovering from addiction or supporting a loved-one.
A small percentage of addicts seek treatment, despite the perceived high costs. However, rehab costs are small in comparison to the health and social risks of avoiding treatment. These negative consequences can be avoided by seeking help as soon as possible.
Millions of Americans are living with addiction every day. A U.S. surgeon-general report from 2016 estimates that almost 21 million Americans suffer with a substance use disorder. Only 10% receive substance abuse treatment.
What is the reason? Costs are a major reason. The cost of treatment was a major factor in the fact that almost 40% of Americans with substance use disorders didn't get to rehab between 2011-2014. They either couldn't afford it, or they didn’t have insurance.
The cost of treatment is far less than the cost for addiction. Many people don't realize that insurance can help reduce the cost of rehabilitation. The new law requires insurance companies to cover mental health and addiction treatment.
What is the Cost of Rehab?
Each level of treatment in addiction centers across the country is different. People with more severe drug use disorders are likely to require more intensive and longer-term treatment. The cost of intensive care is usually higher than that of standard treatment.
Detox
Detoxification refers to the removal of drugs from the body. Based on information from drug treatment facilities throughout the United States and estimates of daily costs, a 30-day detox can cost between $250 and $800.
Residential Treatment
Basic residential treatment is estimated to cost between $2,000 and $25,000 and often includes assessments and 24-hour supervision. Long-term residential therapy, which can last between 60 to 90 minutes, may be twice the cost.
For 30 days of treatment, luxury rehab facilities may charge upwards to $25,000 Most private treatment centers charge much less.
Outpatient Rehab
Outpatient care allows patients to remain at home and receive treatment. Through a series or appointments, patients can become drug-free and live in their own homes. Outpatient care is often available for as little as $5,000 per month. Outpatient treatment can be as high as $10,000 at some facilities.
Intensive Outpatient Rehab
Intensive outpatient care is a more thorough form of outpatient healthcare. It generally involves multiple appointments per semaine that last approximately three hours each. This type of care costs anywhere from $3,000 to $10,000 for 30 consecutive days.
Partial Hospitalization Programs
Partial hospitalization programs are for patients who require intensive treatment during the day and can return to their home in the evening. PHP typically costs between $350- $450 per hour.
Medication-Assisted Opioid Therapy
A U.S. Department of Defense 2016 report estimated the cost of various opioid addiction treatment programs.

Free Programs
Some facilities offer payment assistance, or sliding-fee scales. Treatment centers can be costly. Other locations offer programs that are completely free of charge and covered by state taxes. These state-sponsored programs are often subject to long waitlists.
People in recovery can also turn to support groups like Narcotics Anonymous or Alcoholics Anonymous. These 12-step programs have helped millions to get sobriety over the past six decades through regular meetings. You may also find free treatment from faith-based organisations.
