Our Alcohol and Drug Addiction Treatment Approaches

Substance abuse treatment enables chronic drug users to end their dependence in a supported setting. The duration, intensity, and location of drug treatment programs vary widely based on factors such as the type of drug and duration of use.

Because drug addiction is a chronic condition marked by relapse, a single session of short-term treatment rarely succeeds. Most clients require a combination of therapies and regular monitoring through a residential treatment plan.

At Catalina Behavioral Health, our treatment specialists use a blend of evidence-based practices like behavioral therapy and treatment medications to ensure you get your life back on track.

What Types of Therapies are Offered at Catalina?

Addiction treatment modalities are tailored to each client’s unique physical and behavioral needs to effectively address their drug or alcohol misuse issues.

Our addiction counselors often coordinate a range of treatment options, including individual and group therapy sessions.

The common types of therapies used in substance abuse treatment include:

The therapist will be able to provide a variety of psychological strategies for overcoming addictions after reviewing brain wave patterns.

1. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

To prevent relapse, people in recovery often benefit from cognitive behavioral therapy. CBT helps our clients identify and address any negative emotions or thoughts that may interfere with their sobriety. Co-occurring mental health disorders, such as bipolar disorder, also respond well to this type of therapy.

2. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Dialectical behavioral health services treat substance use disorders and severe co-occurring disorders, such as obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). This treatment regime aims to help patients feel better about themselves, learn to cope with stressful situations and resist the temptation to relapse.

3. Biofeedback Treatment

Biofeedback is a non-pharmaceutical therapy for improving awareness of automatic physiological responses. A therapist uses biofeedback by attaching electronic sensors to a client’s skin to monitor the patient’s brain activity.

4. Experiential Therapy

People in recovery from addiction can benefit from using experiential therapy, which employs non-conventional treatment methods, from confronting and processing the repressed experiences and emotions that may have led to their addiction. Rock climbing is one type of popular outdoor sport that can serve as a form of adventure therapy.

5. Psychodynamic Therapy

By delving into their innermost feelings, our clients in psychodynamic treatment can better understand unconscious ideas’ role in their addiction. The root of the substance abuse problem can then be located and addressed through intensive psychiatric care.

Individuals who work closely with therapists to address these profound emotions are better able to recognize and resist temptations as they arise throughout the rest of their addiction recovery.

6. Holistic Therapy

While psychological and emotional withdrawal symptoms are prioritized, physical withdrawal symptoms are also addressed within the framework of holistic therapy. Examples of holistic treatments include yoga, art therapy, and guided meditation.

7. Motivational Enhancement Therapy (MET)

Motivational enhancement treatment helps teach people in recovery how to alter their unfavorable attitudes and habits. People in recovery from substance misuse who also suffer from a co-occurring disease, such as bipolar disorder or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), often benefit greatly from this form of therapy.

The Core Types of Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs

Inpatient and outpatient rehab are the two main types of drug treatment programs offered at our Tucson-based treatment center.

1. Residential Drug Rehab or Inpatient Treatment Program

Residential treatment involves clients in recovery staying in the on-site accommodations at the treatment center. Inpatient treatment is preferable because it allows clients to avoid potential triggers in their everyday lives. The inpatient setting at Catalina is a homelike environment but with safety and comfort paramount.

Our residential treatment facility in Tucson, Arizona, provides a comforting, familiar setting for patients to feel at home as they focus on complete recovery. The primary benefit of inpatient addiction treatment is that all clients’ efforts are focused on getting better.

2. Outpatient Drug Rehab Program

Outpatient rehab programs offer addiction treatment without accommodation. The levels of outpatient care vary based on the intensity of treatment. They include:

• Partial hospitalization programs (PHPs)
• Intensive outpatient programs (IOPs)
• Outpatient services

The duration of the outpatient treatment plan varies with each level. Clients in outpatient rehabilitation programs frequently receive treatment multiple days each week, with hourly sessions. Outpatient program schedules are customizable to fit patients’ demands, such as going to work or school.

Some people find outpatient treatment challenging since staying at home puts them close to enablers and triggers. These programs are most useful as a transition from inpatient treatment facilities.

Support Groups and Group Therapy at Catalina

Once a client has completed their treatment program at Catalina, they should consider joining a support group. These groups are essential to continuing care after rehabilitation has ended and patients have returned home. The people you meet in group therapy can inspire you as you work through your addiction recovery.

Many types of support groups are available, each focusing on a different set of issues, such as a particular drug or population. Finding the correct group like Alcoholics Anonymous or SMART Recovery connects you with a network of people who support, encourage, and inspire one another to maintain your sobriety.
