Treatment
Alcoholism
A person with alcoholism, also known as alcohol use disorder (AUD), is unable to stop drinking despite experiencing negative consequences. They continue to drink, even if it causes problems at home or work. When an individual becomes dependent on alcohol, expert intervention is often necessary to recover. Psychological, social, and medical supports are available at alcohol rehab in Kansas which makes long-term recovery possible.
Drug Addiction
The length, intensity, setting, and treatment methods vary for each drug rehab in Kansas. Plans of care can be tailored to meet each person’s own unique situation and needs. With the right program, individuals can successfully achieve long-term sobriety.

Levels of Care
Outpatient
Clients receiving treatment at an outpatient facility are often further along in their recovery journey than those in inpatient care, meaning they may require less intensive supervision and support. Outpatient services generally include addiction counseling, recovery education, and community reintegration support. Most outpatient rehabs offer evening, night, and weekend services to accommodate clients’ needs. Clients who are in early recovery or are at an increased relapse risk may enroll in partial hospitalization (PHP) or intensive outpatient (IOP) programs.
Intensive Outpatient
Clients exiting detox, stepping down from inpatient rehab, or at an increased risk of relapse often enroll in intensive outpatient programs (IOP). These programs offer high-level support, including multiple therapeutic sessions per week. Clients typically receive between nine and 20 hours of treatment weekly. Intensive outpatient rehabs generally offer an array of services, including individual, group, and family counseling and recovery education. Medication assisted treatment (MAT) is widely available for those in alcohol and/or opioid recovery.
12-Step
12 step programs feature peer coaching and spiritual development to support participants’ sustained sobriety. Most programs are non-denominational and religious affiliation isn’t required. Participants engage in regular 12 step meetings, which are open to the public, anonymous, and free. Meetings can be accessed night and day in most communities. Self-selected sponsors provide one-on-one mentoring as participants work through the 12 steps, which foster healing, understanding, accountability, and acceptance.
Aftercare Support
Completing a drug or alcohol rehab program shouldn't spell the end of substance abuse treatment. Aftercare involves making a sustainable plan for recovery, including ongoing support. This can include sober living arrangements like halfway houses, career counseling, and setting a patient up with community programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA).
Outpatient
Clients receiving treatment at an outpatient facility are often further along in their recovery journey than those in inpatient care, meaning they may require less intensive supervision and support. Outpatient services generally include addiction counseling, recovery education, and community reintegration support. Most outpatient rehabs offer evening, night, and weekend services to accommodate clients’ needs. Clients who are in early recovery or are at an increased relapse risk may enroll in partial hospitalization (PHP) or intensive outpatient (IOP) programs.
Clinical Services
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
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.
Couples Therapy
Whether a marriage or other committed relationship, an intimate partnership is one of the most important aspects of a person's life. Drug and alcohol addiction affects both members of a couple in deep and meaningful ways, as does rehab and recovery. Couples therapy and other couples-focused treatment programs are significant parts of exploring triggers of addiction, as well as learning how to build healthy patterns to support ongoing sobriety.
Family Therapy
Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.
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.
Motivational Interviewing
Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a clinical approach to helping people with substance abuse issues and other conditions shift behavior in positive ways. It is more goal-oriented than traditional psychotherapy, as MI counselors directly attempt to get clients to consider making behavioral change (rather than wait for them to come to conclusions themselves). Its primary purpose is to resolve ambivalence and help clients become able to make healthy choices freely.
Rational Behavior Therapy
Rational Behavior Therapy (RBT) is a form of cognitive behavioral therapy meant to be short-term and comprehensive. It was intended to help clients become more self-sufficent and move forward without the need for expensive, ongoing therapy. It includes an emotional self-help method called “rational self-counseling,” the purpose of which is to give clients all the skills needed to handle future emotional issues by themselves, or with significantly less professional help.
Trauma Therapy
Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.
