Regular out-patient recovery is mostly a less expensive choice to more intensive outpatient options or inpatient recovery, and is the lowest intensity of formal alcohol or drug treatment available in Oak Leaf. Some individuals are attending treatment for the first time and have chosen regular outpatient because that is all they can afford and time commitment and logistically because of work, school or other obligations. For some, regular outpatient is a "step-down" from treatment in a more intense outpatient facility like a partial hospitalization or in-patient center.
Regular out-patient rehabilitation services usually include individual and group counseling services occurring once maybe twice per week. Facilities that include a more diverse 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 a person stays involved in rehab can vary, and a person's improvement can be judged occasionally and more rehab can be recommended contingent upon these evaluations.
In many situations, a regular outpatient rehab program may be deficient in intensity for a person who is dealing with a bad drug and alcohol problem and has not gone to rehab previously or has fallen off the wagon after previous outpatient recovery.
