Alcoholism

Dual Diagnosis
In Connecticut, dual-diagnosis addiction treatment recognizes the importance of addressing both mental health and substance use disorders in their specialized rehab programs, including outpatient, inpatient, medically assisted detox, and partial hospitalization. Using evidence-based therapies like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, and experiential therapies, addiction experts address substance use disorders and mental health challenges simultaneously, improving recovery outcomes and reducing the risk of relapse.

Levels of Care
Outpatient
Outpatient rehabs offer a wide variety of therapeutic programs to address clients’ unique and evolving needs. They are generally most effective for clients who have completed inpatient treatment and are medically stable. Most outpatient treatment centers prioritize addiction counseling and recovery-focused life skills training. Many also provide medication assisted treatment (MAT) for clients in alcohol and opioid recovery. Evening, night, and weekend sessions are commonly offered to accommodate clients’ schedules.
Medically Assisted Detox
Typically seen as a first step in the recovery process, medically assisted detox generally takes place in an inpatient setting under the 24/7 supervision of licensed medical professionals. It is considered the safest way to remove addictive drugs from your body. The length of a medical detox program is individualized, but it often takes around 5-7 days.
Intensive Outpatient
Intensive outpatient programs (IOP) offer robust support for clients who are at an elevated risk of relapse, including those in early recovery and those in crisis. Clients in intensive outpatient treatment typically receive between nine and 20 hours of service per week, with the intensity and frequency of treatment decreasing as clients stabilize. The services provided in these programs vary, but generally include addiction counseling, recovery-focused life skills training, medication assisted treatment (MAT), and holistic therapies.
