The Healing Place – Women and Children’s Campus - Louisville, KY

About the Facility

The Healing Place is a premier drug and alcohol rehabilitation center for men and women in the area of Louisville, Kentucky. Clients are treated with a long term social model focused on helping clients discover the stressful triggers that lead to addictive behaviors and arming them with the coping skills to avoid them. They offer luxury amenities in a residential setting.

The Healing Place keeps prices low by charging $40 a day for treatment. They accommodate people of all backgrounds regardless of race, spiritual belief, sexuality, or physical disability.

Detox is usually necessary before clients are admitted into another level of care. The medical staff helps clients cope with withdrawal symptoms and provides therapy to prepare them for the rest of the program. Detox usually takes up to 10 days to complete, but times vary.

The residential program sees clients staying at the facility for the duration of treatment as they progress through different stages. The first stage introduces them to the concepts they will learn and allows them to acclimate to their new surroundings and schedule. This phase lasts two weeks.

The second portion introduces the client to their long term treatment program, which is a combination of the 12 step program and an educational curriculum. Here clients learn the role of personal accountability in recovery and engage in group meetings where they take personal responsibility for their addiction and help others do the same. Clients will also learn vital social and coping skills at this stage.

IOP allows clients not qualifying for inpatient care to receive treatment still. They meet at the facility four times a week in groups of no more than 15 people to participate in the same 12 step program and curriculum as the inpatient program. Schedules are flexible to accommodate a client’s needs.

The Healing Place provides clients who completed the residential program with low cost housing to help them transition back into their daily lives. Sober living houses are supportive atmospheres where clients help one another remain accountable on the path to recovery. Meals are available at no cost to clients.

Treatment

Alcoholism

Alcoholism is a term used to describe a level of drinking that causes harm to a person’s health. Also known as alcohol addiction or alcohol use disorder (AUD), the dependency involves a strong, often uncontrollable urge to drink.This condition is treatable through alcohol rehab in Kentucky. Programs typically involve supervised detox, behavioral treatments, medications, and mutual-support groups.

Drug Addiction

Drug rehab in Kentucky often starts with detox, then includes inpatient or outpatient treatment, and continues with aftercare support. Specific methods used during each of these phases varies, but often include individual and group counseling, medication, and recreational therapies.

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 Kentucky, comprehensive substance abuse treatment programs are available to address addiction and any co-occurring mental health disorders. Typically, treatment programs offer various levels of care, including outpatient, inpatient, and partial hospitalization.

Levels of Care

Medically Assisted Detox

Medical detox is the process of weaning your body off addictive substances in a medically supervised environment. An on-site medical team may include physicians, nurses, therapists, and other clinical staff whose job it is to monitor your vitals and provide medications if necessary to alleviate withdrawal symptoms. Their goal is to keep you as safe and comfortable as possible throughout the process.. Medically assisted detox programs are individualized to meet your specific needs and can vary in length, but they tend to last 5-7 days.

Inpatient

The Healing Place also offers a long-term residential recovery program. The only requirement is that you have a sincere desire to recover from your addiction and change your life. To get started in our program, call one of our Recovery Centers to the right. The Healing Place recognizes that there is a great need for substance abuse services across the country. Each person who requests admission to our programs will be considered on a case by case basis. However, we are not able to provide services to everyone who requests admission. Because of our limited space, we will admit persons based on the following priorities.

12-Step

Participants in 12 step programs attend regular group meetings, which are free, anonymous, and open to the public. Most communities offer multiple meetings daily, with specialized formats, including programs for seniors, teens, and families, widely available. 12 step recovery prioritizes participants’ spiritual, emotional, and psychological growth and healing to support their sustained sobriety. Participants also receive one-on-one mentoring from a self-selected sponsor as they work through the 12 steps of recovery.

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.

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.

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.
