Regular outpatient recovery is usually a less expensive choice to more intensive outpatient centers or inpatient treatment, and is the least intense of formal alcohol or drug rehab available in Alton. Some clients are in rehab for their first time and have picked regular outpatient because that is all they can afford and time commitment and scheduling because of school, work or other obligations. For some, regular outpatient is a step down from rehab in a more intense outpatient center like a partial hospitalization or in-patient facility.
Regular outpatient rehabilitation services usually have group and individual counseling services delivered once or twice a week. Centers that offer a wider array of services may include psychotherapies (CBT) to help with relapse prevention and dual-diagnosis services to help address co-occurring addiction and mental health disorders. How long an individual remains in treatment can vary, and a person's progress can be judged from time to time and an extension of rehab can be recommended based on these evaluations.
In some cases, a regular outpatient treatment facility may be insufficient in intensity for an individual who is addressing a chronic substance abuse issue and has not gone to treatment before or has relapsed after previous outpatient treatment.
