Regular outpatient treatment is mostly a less expensive alternative to more intensive outpatient options or inpatient treatment, and is the lowest intensity of formal substance abuse rehabilitation around in Ashland. Some clients are attending 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. In some cases, regular outpatient is a step down to service following treatment in a more intense outpatient program like a partial hospitalization or in-patient center.
Regular outpatient treatment options usually involve individual and group counseling services occurring once maybe twice per week. Centers which offer a more diverse spectrum of services may include psychotherapies (behavioral therapy) to assist with relapse prevention and dual diagnosis services to help respond to co-occurring addiction and mental health issues. How long someone remains in treatment can change from client to client, and a client's progress can be evaluated from time to time and an extension of rehab can be recommended contingent upon these conclusions.
In many situations, a regular outpatient treatment facility may be lacking in intensity for a client who is facing a bad substance abuse issue and has not experienced rehab before or has fallen off the wagon after prior outpatient treatment.
