Regular outpatient rehabilitation is mostly a less expensive alternative to more intensive outpatient centers or inpatient rehabilitation, and is the lowest intensity of formal substance abuse treatment available in Point Pleasant. 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 school, work or other obligations. For many, regular outpatient is a "step-down" to service following treatment in a more intense outpatient center like a partial hospitalization or inpatient center.
Regular outpatient treatment options usually involve individual and group counseling services occurring once or twice a week. Programs which include a wider spectrum of services may include psychotherapies (behavioral therapy) to assist with relapse prevention and dual diagnosis services to help respond to co-occurring substance abuse and mental health disorders. How long a person remains involved in rehab can change from client to client, and a client's improvement can be judged every now and then and an extension of rehab can be suggested contingent upon these conclusions.
In many cases, a regular outpatient rehabilitation program may be insufficient in intensity for someone who is attempting to address a severe drug and alcohol problem and has never experienced rehab previously or has fallen off the wagon following prior outpatient rehab.
