Patients can maintain contact with their own individual support systems and function productively at work. As a result, they learn effective strategies for coping with the reality of their personal lives while benefitting from the support of our health care team. Although sometimes it is necessary for patients to enter controlled settings, in most cases, the outpatient modality has significant advantages as compared with the 28-day inpatient program.
Outpatient treatment allows for continuity in personal and professional life.
By participating in regular activities while in treatment, one continues to experience the reality of everyday life stressors. This approach encourages long-term psychosocial adjustment by maintaining a normal routine in familiar surroundings. The work schedule remains uninterrupted, so that both the corporation and its employees benefit. For the cost of a 28-day inpatient drug rehab, Psychotherapy Resources provides six months of intensive and ongoing therapy from detox to relapse prevention. Considering the efficacy of continuous therapeutic support, six months is substantially more valuable than 28 days.
