Alcoholism

Alcohol addiction (also called alcoholism or alcohol use disorder) is defined as a chronic disorder involving compulsive drinking of alcohol. Many treatment options are available for this addiction, based on frequency of consumption and severity of alcohol abuse. Most alcohol rehab in Montana involves detoxification, psychotherapy, and social supports. Family involvement is often encouraged, and ongoing support after rehab is essential.

Drug Addiction

A comprehensive drug rehab in Montana treats the entire person. Treatment methods address all the underlying causes of addiction and give the individual the tools they need to live a healthy, drug-free life.

Dual Diagnosis

Montana's dual-diagnosis addiction treatment programs provide comprehensive care for individuals with co-occurring substance use disorders and mental health conditions. Outpatient, inpatient, and partial hospitalization levels of care are available. Therapies such as cognitive behavioral therapy, or dialectical behavioral therapy, mindfulness-based therapy, and experiential therapy address both disorders simultaneously and promote overall health. The benefit of dual diagnosis is that both conditions are treated at the same time, drastically increasing the odds of successful long-term recovery.

Opioid Addiction

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 Abuse

In Montana, addiction treatment programs provide comprehensive care for individuals struggling with substance abuse. Levels of care include residential rehab, detox, and intensive outpatient programs. Substance abuse treatments include interventions like cognitive behavioral therapy, or dialectical behavioral therapy, educational groups, skills training, and family counseling. The benefits of substance abuse treatment are improved health and increased odds of long-term sobriety.

Outpatient

Clients enrolled in outpatient rehab typically reside in their own homes and many continue to work and/or attend school while receiving addiction treatment. The frequency and intensity of outpatient treatment varies based upon the clients’ evolving needs. Many programs offer a full continuum of outpatient care, including partial hospitalization (PHP), intensive outpatient (IOP), sober living/halfway housing, and standard outpatient services. The most common treatment modalities are psychotherapy, life skills training, and medication assisted treatment (MAT).

Medically Assisted Detox

Often serving as the first step in the addiction recovery process, medically supervised detox involves weaning your body off addictive substances while in the safety of a medically supervised environment. If you are dependent on substances like alcohol, opioids, or benzodiazepines, the associated withdrawal symptoms can not only be uncomfortable, they can be extremely dangerous. In medically supervised detox, a team of medical professionals can monitor your health, vital signs, and progression to ensure your maximum safety and comfort.

Intensive Outpatient

Clients who wish to remain in or return to their own homes but who still need robust care may enroll in an intensive outpatient program (IOP). These programs feature frequent, high-level treatment, often combining a variety of modalities, including addiction counseling, recovery education, and holistic therapies. Clients in alcohol and/or opioid recovery may also receive medication assisted treatment (MAT). Most intensive outpatient rehabs require clients to participate in nine to 20 hours of treatment weekly.

Inpatient

Recovery Center Missoula’s inpatient program is individualized, intense, and focused on you and your recovery. Daily programming takes place 10 – 12 hours per day, 7 days per week, in a safe and structured environment. The program length varies and is dependent upon your individual treatment needs. They do not subscribe to a “one size fits all” model.

12-Step

Addiction recovery based on 12 step program models emphasize emotional, psychological, and spiritual growth. The 12 step recovery strategy depends on intensive peer support, including regular attendance at group meetings, which are anonymous, free, open to the public, and available 365 days per year in most communities. Participants also receive one-on-one mentoring from a self-selected peer sponsor as they work through the 12 steps of recovery, which relate to self-awareness, forgiveness, accountability, and acceptance.

Aftercare Support

Roots in Recovery is the Recovery Centers’ alumni group which is becoming active in most major cities in Montana. Patrick Ryan coordinates all alumni activities in Missoula and the surrounding areas, and their Path of Patience. Honoring their alumni who maintain their recovery for a year or more, a brick is placed in their honor in the RCM courtyard on the Path.

24-Hour Clinical Care

At certain points in the recovery process, it's important to have support available 24/7. 24-hour clinical care offers a safe environment in which to recover from drug or alcohol addiction in peace, knowing medical detox and other treatment will happen with professionals on hand.

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.

Creative Arts Therapy

Creativity is inherently healing, and can help those in recovery express thoughts or feelings they might not otherwise be able to. Creative arts therapy can include music, poetry/writing, painting, sculpting, dance, theater, sandplay, and more. Unlike traditional art, the final product matters far less than the experience of creation and expression itself.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a modified form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a treatment designed to help people understand and ultimately affect the relationship between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. DBT is often used for individuals who struggle with self-harm behaviors, such as self-mutilation (cutting) and suicidal thoughts, urges, or attempts. It has been proven clinically effective for those who struggle with out-of-control emotions and mental health illnesses like Borderline Personality Disorder.

Experiential Therapy

Experiential therapy is a form of therapy in which clients are encouraged to surface and work through subconscious issues by engaging in real-time experiences. Experiential therapy departs from traditional talk therapy by involving the body, and having clients engage in activities, movements, and physical and emotional expression. This can involve role-play or using props (which can include other people). Experiential therapy can help people process trauma, memories, and emotion quickly, deeply, and in a lasting fashion, leading to substantial and impactful healing.

Family Therapy

Coping with a family member or friend whose life is embroiled in addiction is stressful. This often leaves family members feeling hopeless and not knowing where to turn. RCM offers a Care Group to support family and friends of recovering or non-recovering individuals. Community supports such as Al-Anon or Nar-Anon can also be helpful and supportive to family members and friends to increase understanding of the addictive process and reduce enabling behaviors which can perpetuate the problem.

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.

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.
