Regular out-patient recovery is mostly a less expensive choice to more intensive outpatient options or inpatient rehabilitation, and is the lowest intensity of formal drug or alcohol rehabilitation available in Livingston. Some clients are in treatment for their first time and have chosen regular outpatient because that is all they can afford and commitment to time wise and logistically because of school, work or other obligations. In some cases, regular outpatient is a "step-down" from treatment in a more intense outpatient center such as a partial hospitalization or inpatient facility.
Regular outpatient rehab services involve some kind of individual and group counseling services occurring once maybe twice per week. Programs that offer a wider spectrum of services may include counseling (CBT) to help with relapse prevention and dual-diagnosis services to help address co-occurring addiction and mental health disorders. How long a person remains involved in treatment can vary, and a person's improvement can be judged occasionally and an extension of treatment can be suggested based on these evaluations.
In many situations, a regular outpatient treatment facility is going to be insufficient in intensity for an individual who is addressing a chronic substance abuse problem and has not gone to treatment before or has fallen off the wagon following prior outpatient treatment.
