Most inpatient drug addiction and alcohol addiction treatment centers fail because they are all basic cookie cutter programs. This means everyone gets the same group therapy (up to 5 hours a day) and 1-2 hours of individual counseling per week. This simply does not work as clients need intensive therapy to get to the root cause of their issues and fast. In addition, inpatient treatment programs force you to cut off all communication with your loved ones and any connection you have to the outside world which simply sets you up for failure when you leave. You need customized care in your own location and space.
