Regular outpatient rehabilitation is usually a less expensive alternative to more comprehensive outpatient options or inpatient rehabilitation, and is the least intense of formal substance abuse rehab available in Orleans. Some individuals are attending rehab for the first time and have chosen regular outpatient because that is all they can afford and time commitment and scheduling because of work, school or other obligations. In some cases, regular outpatient is a "step-down" to service following treatment in a more intensive outpatient center such as a partial hospitalization or in-patient program.
Regular outpatient treatment services usually involve some kind of group and individual counseling services occurring once or twice a week. Programs that include a more diverse spectrum 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 someone remains involved in treatment can change from client to client, and a person's progress can be assessed every now and then and more treatment can be suggested contingent upon these conclusions.
In many situations, a regular outpatient treatment program may be deficient in intensity for a person who is dealing with a severe alcohol and drug problem and has never experienced treatment before or has fallen off the wagon following prior outpatient rehab.
