About Perception House
Perception House is located in Willimantic, Connecticut, and offers treatment for addiction and co-occurring mental health disorders. This is a comprehensive treatment center with medical detox, residential and outpatient treatment programs. They accept Medicaid and insurance through other state financed programs, as well as government funding for substance use programs.
The facility is a half mile from the charming Main Street Historic District. The community is vibrant and hosts farmers’ markets, festivals and events throughout the year. The area is perfect for strolling and exploring and offers several recreational and park areas where you can find peace and serenity.
Treating Women with Addiction and Mental Health Challenges
The programs are tailored for adult women, and the providers have experience treating women with trauma. You can start in their medically supervised detox, where clinicians will help you safely manage withdrawal symptoms.
After detox, they have a residential or intensive outpatient program (IOP). The residential treatment offers long term inpatient care for clients with addiction. The setting is private, and clients are allowed to smoke in designated areas.
The IOP is a structured outpatient program that offers flexibility so clients can still live at home and attend school or work throughout treatment. While in the IOP, you’ll attend therapy sessions multiple times per week. All treatment programs provide medication management as appropriate.
Integrated Holistic and Animal Therapies
One of the unique aspects of the program is the integrated holistic therapies using a trauma informed and gender responsive approach. Therapies include meditation and mindfulness activities, art and movement.
There are two therapy cats named Socks and Boots. The cats help clients lower stress, reduce anxiety and experience social connection. The cats, like other therapy animals, provide a nonjudgmental and calming presence.

Other Forms of Payment
Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.
Financial aid can take many forms. Centers may have grants or scholarships available to clients who meet eligibility requirements. Programs that receive SAMHSA grants may have financial aid available for those who need treatment as well. Grants and scholarships can help you pai for treatment without having to repay.
Medicaid is a state based program that helps lower-income individuals and families pay for healthcare. Medicaid covers addiction treatment so those enrolled can use their coverage to pay for rehab. When a program accepts Medicaid the client often pays very little or nothing out of their own pocket.

Treatments
The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.
Drug rehab in Connecticut provides the professional support that is often necessary to break free from drug dependency. With proper treatment, individuals can make changes that restore balance and health to their lives and achieve long-term recovery.
Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.
Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.
Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group 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.
