Before you can overcome drug and alcohol addiction, you need to be able to recognize their causes. There are many factors that lead people to abuse drugs and become addicted. 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. However, alcohol and other drugs can exacerbate co-occurring mental disorders. We teach healthy ways of coping with unhappiness and address all underlying causes of addiction.
It is important to have a personalized approach when seeking treatment for addiction to alcohol or drugs. It should be tailored to you. We will work with you to design a personal treatment plan. This could include individual therapy, counseling and group therapy.

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.
Only a few people with addiction seek treatment because of the perceived high cost. However, rehab costs are small in comparison to the health and social risks of avoiding treatment. These consequences can be prevented by getting treatment now.
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% receive substance abuse treatment.
Why? 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 to treat addiction is significantly lower than that of treatment. Insurance can reduce the cost of rehab, which many people don't know. The new law requires insurance companies to cover mental health and addiction treatment.
How Much Does Rehab Cost?
The prices for different levels of addiction treatment vary across the nation. For people with severe addictions, intensive and extended treatment may be required. In general, intensive care is more costly than standard treatment.
Detox
Detoxification refers to the removal of drugs from the body. Based on data from drug treatment facilities in the United States, the average cost for a 30-day detox program is $250 to $800 per person.
Residential Treatment
Basic residential treatment can cost between $2,000 to $20,000. This includes assessments and supervision around the clock. Long-term residential therapy, which can last between 60 to 90 minutes, may be twice the cost.
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 patients the freedom to live at their own homes while they receive treatment. Through a series or appointments, patients can become drug-free and live in their own homes. A three-month outpatient program can often cost around $5,000. Some facilities charge as much as $10,000 for outpatient treatment.
Intensive Outpatient Rehab
Intensive Outpatient Treatment is a more complete version of outpatient services. It usually involves several appointments per week that take approximately three hours each. For 30 days, this level of care may cost you between $3,000 to $10,000.
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 usually costs between $350- $450 per daily.
Medication-Assisted Opioid Therapy
A U.S. Department of Defense 2016 report estimated the cost of various opioid addiction treatment programs.

Cost-Free Programs
Even though treatment centers are expensive, many facilities offer payment assistance or sliding fees scales. Other facilities offer programs for free, funded by state taxes. These programs sponsored by the state often have long waiting lists.
Individuals in recovery have another option: Narcotics Anonymous and Alcoholics Anonymous are two options. These 12-step programs, which have been in existence for over six decades, have helped millions of people maintain or achieve sobriety by holding regular meetings. You may also find free treatment from faith-based organisations.
