About DART Center (DART Cherry Program)
Their services use a combination of therapy and holistic care. This means that they’ll be digging into your triggers to address any mental and behavioral disorders. You’ll have a better understanding of your condition and can find better outlets for frustrations without drugs. While you’re in treatment, you’ll be supervised throughout in case any emergencies come up. They don’t offer medications or detox, though. If you need to detox, you’ll be referred to another center nearby. All medical expenses will be your responsibility.
In addition to counseling, you’ll have the chance to learn new skills and healthier ways to deal with your emotions. Your health will improve, and your chances of rearrest or relapse will be much, much smaller when you head home to your loved ones.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a therapy modality that focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is used to establish and allow for healthy responses to thoughts and feelings (instead of unhealthy responses, like using drugs or alcohol). CBT has been proven effective for recovering addicts of all kinds, and is used to strengthen a patient's own self-awareness and ability to self-regulate. CBT allows individuals to monitor their own emotional state, become more adept at communicating with others, and manage stress without needing to engage in substance abuse.
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.
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.
Life skills trainings involve all the skills a person must have in order to function successfully in the world. These include time management, career guidance, money management, and effective communication. Truly successful addiction recovery is based on the ability to not only live substance-free, but to thrive. Life skills teaches the practical necessities of functioning in society, which sets clients up for success in life, and therefore sobriety.
Family therapy sessions address the emotional toll that addiction has had on the family unit and individual members. Therapists work with families to develop better coping strategies, which in turn create a stable environment for their loved one's recovery process.
