Regular out-patient treatment is usually a less costly alternative to more intensive outpatient centers or inpatient treatment, and is the least intense of formal drug or alcohol rehabilitation available in Fort Myer. Some clients are in treatment for their first time and have chosen regular outpatient because of the cost and commitment to time wise and scheduling because of school, work or other obligations. For some, regular outpatient is a step down to service following treatment in a more intense outpatient program such as a partial hospitalization or in-patient center.
Regular out-patient rehab services involve some kind of group and individual counseling services delivered once or twice a week. Programs that include a wider array of services may include counseling (behavioral therapy) to assist with relapse prevention and dual-diagnosis services to help respond to co-occurring addiction and mental health issues. The length of time someone stays in treatment can change from client to client, and a person's progress can be judged every now and then and more rehab can be suggested based on these findings.
In many situations, a regular outpatient rehab program may be deficient in intensity for someone who is dealing with a severe drug and alcohol problem and has not experienced recovery before or has fallen off the wagon following prior outpatient rehab.
