Coastal Harbor’s residential drug rehab program is designed to treat those adults age 18 and older who have abused drugs, alcohol, and other substances. It provides intensive 24 hour support in a secure setting for patients 18 and older with ongoing psychiatric and substance abuse problems. Clients engage in individual therapy, group counseling, psychiatric evaluation, medication management, and a range of evidence based therapeutic activities. This intensive level of care allows individuals to focus on their recovery while being closely monitored by a dedicated team of professionals.

Coastal Harbor’s partial hospitalization program (PHP) provides comprehensive treatment for individuals who require a structured and supportive environment during the day while being able to return home in the evenings. This program includes therapy sessions, psychiatric evaluations, medication management, life skills training, and holistic activities.

The intensive outpatient program (IOP) at Coastal Harbor offers flexible treatment options for individuals who require a step down level of care. Through a combination of group therapy, individual counseling, psychoeducation, relapse prevention strategies, and ongoing support, clients receive comprehensive treatment while maintaining their daily routines.

In addition to the intensive substance use disorder treatment are opportunities for patients to participate in activities that promote overall wellness and bring enjoyment to many who may not have enjoyed life’s pleasures for some time. Patients can participate in activities such as animal assisted therapy, yoga, and weekend cookouts.

Coastal Harbor recognizes the importance of ongoing support following the completion of a treatment program. They provide comprehensive aftercare services, including relapse prevention planning, alumni support groups, access to community resources, and continued therapy sessions to promote long term recovery and success.

Levels of Care

Outpatient

Outpatient rehab enables clients to receive addiction treatment while continuing to work and reside at home. Many programs offer evening, night, and weekend services so that clients may receive treatment on their own schedule. Outpatient treatment modalities typically include addiction counseling, recovery-focused life skills training, and/or medication assisted treatment (MAT). Many programs also provide step-down care, including partial hospitalization (PHP), intensive outpatient (IOP), and standard outpatient services, to align with clients’ evolving needs.

Inpatient

Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.

12-Step

Participants in 12 step recovery programs focus on personal growth to address the emotional and psychological factors contributing to their addiction. 12 step recovery is rooted in spiritual development, but religious affiliation isn’t required. Regular group meetings and individualized support with the help of self-selected sponsors promote participants’ sobriety as they work through the 12 steps, gaining insight into their addiction, taking responsibility for their life choices, and releasing control over that which is uncontrollable.

Clinical Services

Group Therapy

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.

Individual Therapy

In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.
