ShareHouse

About the Facility

ShareHouse offers drug and alcohol recovery services in Fargo, North Dakota. They serve adults with evidence backed approaches, which they've continuously expanded since founding in 1975. It is a private residential setting with comfortable amenities.

Their Treatment University program has over 100 hours of educational opportunities for clients to partake in during treatment. Personalized treatment plans use the 12 step program as a foundation.

Inpatient programs are ideal for those with severe symptoms who could benefit most from close monitoring and access to a care team 24 hours a day. ShareHouse is an 87 bed facility with a relaxing, home like atmosphere, including a game room for leisure activities. The residential program promotes comfort as a means to make treatment more accessible.

Clients help their care teams build a custom treatment plan that addresses their concerns in a way they are comfortable with. Therapy, which takes place in group and individual settings, helps clients recognize their triggers and destructive behaviors and helps them develop healthy coping mechanisms to deal with them. Treatment also provides educational opportunities to help clients develop skills to benefit them during their recovery journey.

ShareHouse provides two levels of day programs: outpatient and intensive outpatient (IOP) care. IOP is offered as a transitional step from inpatient care to clients seeking treatment whose condition doesn’t require close monitoring. IOP transfers to inpatient upon completion.

IOP meets for three days a week, while outpatient meets for two. At both levels, clients learn new coping skills while engaging with one another in self help support groups. At this level of care, clients receive a mentor who provides additional ongoing support.

MAT is available for clients at any level of care when they are struggling with withdrawal symptoms. Medical staff administer and observe MAT to ensure clients get just what they need from approved medications that won’t interfere with the treatment program.

Levels of Care

Sober Living Homes

Residents of a sober living home in North Dakota pay a monthly fee for rent. This cost is typically not covered by insurance, but treatment received while staying at the home may be covered. While living in the halfway house, residents also maintain attendance in recovery groups, participate in household duties, and remain sober. Breaking established house rules can result in eviction.

12-Step

Recovery models based on 12 step programming combine intensive peer support with an emphasis on personal growth. Participants are expected to select a peer sponsor to mentor them through the recovery journey. 12 step recovery strategies are rooted in spiritual principles to promote self-compassion, acceptance, and accountability. Regular attendance at group meetings, which are free, anonymous, and open to the public, is expected. Specialized formats, including programs for seniors, youth, and families, are available in most communities.

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.

Intensive Outpatient

Clients receiving treatment in an intensive outpatient program (IOP) often require higher-level support than those in standard outpatient (OP) programs. They are usually in early recovery or are experiencing crisis situations that increase their relapse risk. Intensive outpatient treatment generally involves nine to 20 hours of treatment weekly and may include a combination of addiction counseling, recovery education, medication assisted treatment (MAT), and holistic therapies, such as meditation, acupuncture, and massage.

Outpatient

Outpatient rehabs offer clients the freedom to remain in their home and community while receiving treatment. Many facilities also provide transitional support for clients who are stepping down from intensive inpatient care. The primary treatment modalities for most outpatient programs include addiction counseling, recovery-focused life skills training, and medication assisted treatment (MAT) for alcohol and/or opioid dependency. Integrative facilities also provide holistic therapies, such as meditation, acupuncture, and massage.

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).

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.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy

Dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) Skills Group meets for one 2-hour session weekly. Group runs for a minimum of 16 weeks and new members are accepted once every 4 weeks. The group is open to men and women with any co-occurring diagnosis; however DBT is designed to target individuals with the chronic life management deficits that often result from personality disorders. Specifically, DBT builds skills in regulating emotion, tolerating distress, and interacting effectively and appropriately with others.

Experiential Therapy

Activity Process Group is a weekly group for men to discuss issues of concern to them, as well as introduce participants to some fun/healthy ways to deal with those issues. This group will use activities as a means to process a variety of things that can be difficult for men to discuss, such as issues with their father or fears of being a father, ethical questions, dealing with loss and forgiveness, and the impact music plays in their lives.

Family Therapy

ShareHouse Family and Recovery group is for any person in any level of care who has completed the Introduction to Family group. This group is more extensive than the introductory group and group members are encouraged to find meaning into their relationships, gain insight into their current and past relationships, and find ways to have healthier relationships. Some common topics of group include (but are not limited to): making amends and forgiveness in families, communication, regaining trust, and many interactive activities based on family backgrounds. The Family Education group is designed to educate family/loved one’s of someone who is in treatment by giving them a better understanding of addiction. It provides support for family/loved one’s who have a relationship with an addict.

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.

Life Skills

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.

Nicotine Replacement Therapy

Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) is a way of getting nicotine into the bloodstream without smoking. It uses products that supply low doses of nicotine to help people stop smoking. The goal of therapy is to cut down on cravings for nicotine and ease the symptoms of nicotine withdrawal.

Trauma Therapy

Beyond Trauma is an experiential psycho-educational program based upon Stephanie Covington’s gender informed curriculum and Francine Shapiro’s science-validated approach towards healing small and large trauma. During the 12-sessions participants will explore a variety of topics. What is trauma? How has trauma impacted my life? What can I do to effectively cope? Exploring these questions, and others, supports movement beyond trauma.
