Before you can conquer alcoholism or drug addiction, it's important to fully understand them. Every individual is affected by different factors that lead you to addiction or substance abuse. 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.
The Underlying Causes of Addiction
Many people abuse substances to get highs or to deal with stress and other health conditions. Alcohol and other drugs can worsen symptoms of co-occurring disorders. We offer help for all aspects of addiction.
You need to be able to relate to the person receiving treatment for alcoholism and drug abuse. It should be customized to meet your individual needs. We work with each client to create a customized treatment plan. It may include counseling, therapy in groups, or medication-assisted options.
The Proven Treatment Methods
Our safe environment is designed to help you get rid of alcohol and other drug abuse. 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 long-term process. Being surrounded with support makes it easier. The goal of drug rehab is to prepare you for a life free from addiction. We will help you navigate your recovery, and connect you to support groups. Support is available to you, regardless if you are in recovery yourself or supporting someone else.
Because of the perceived high prices of addiction treatment, only a very small portion of those who need it pursue treatment. However, the cost of treatment is small compared to the possible health and social consequences of not seeking it. You can avoid these problems by getting help immediately.
Millions of Americans are living with addiction every day. A 2016 U.S. surgeon general report estimated that nearly 21 million Americans have a substance abuse disorder. Only 10 percent receive treatment for substance abuse.
What is the reason? The reason is partly due to the high cost of treatment. In fact, nearly 40% of Americans suffering from a substance-related disorder didn't seek treatment because they couldn’t afford it.
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. New laws require that insurance companies cover treatment for mental illness and addiction.
How Much Does Rehab Cost
Each level of treatment in addiction centers across the country is different. For people with severe addictions, intensive and extended treatment may be required. In general, intensive care is more costly than standard treatment.
Detox
Detoxification is the process of removing drugs from the body and safely ending withdrawal. 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
The cost of basic residential treatment which includes assessments and monitoring around-the-clock is typically between $2,000-$20,000,000. The cost of long-term residential treatment, which lasts between 60 and 90 day, could be twice as high.
For 30 days, some luxury rehab facilities can charge as much as $25,000 However, private treatment centers typically charge less.
Outpatient Rehab
Outpatient care allows people to stay at home while receiving treatment. Patients can learn to live at home and avoid the need for a hospital by attending several appointments. Outpatient treatment can be as low as $5,000 for a 3-month program. Outpatient treatment may be available at some facilities for up to $10,000.
Intensive Outpatient Rehab
Inpatient intensive treatment is a higher-quality version of outpatient therapy. It typically includes multiple appointments per work week, lasting approximately three hours per day. For 30 days, intensive outpatient treatment costs between $3,000- $10,000.
Partial Hospitalization Programs
Partial hospitalization programs on the other hand are designed for patients who need to be treated intensively during the day, but can return to their normal home environment in the evening. PHP typically costs between $350- $450 per hour.
Medication-Assisted Opioid Treatment
The U.S. Department of Defense released a 2016 report that estimated the cost of various opioid treatment programs.

Free Programs
Although treatment centers can be expensive, there are some that offer payment assistance and sliding fee scales. Some facilities offer programs at no cost, which are paid for by state taxes. These programs, which are state sponsored, often have long waiting list.
Recovery people can also look into support groups such a Narcotics Anonymous, Alcoholics Anonymous, and Narcotics Anonymous. These 12-step programs have been helping millions of people to achieve and maintain sobriety for more than 60 years through regular meetings. There are some faith-based organizations that offer free treatment.
