Regular out-patient rehab is mostly a less costly alternative to more intensive outpatient options or inpatient recovery, and is the lowest intensity of formal drug or alcohol rehabilitation available in Helen. Some people are in rehab for the first time and have picked regular outpatient because of the cost and time commitment and scheduling because of school, work or other obligations. In some cases, regular outpatient is a "step-down" from rehab in a more intense outpatient program such as a partial hospitalization or inpatient program.
Regular outpatient recovery services involve some kind of group and individual counseling services occurring once or twice a week. Centers which offer a wider range of services may include psychotherapies (CBT) to assist with relapse prevention and dual-diagnosis services to help respond to co-occurring substance abuse and mental health disorders. How long someone stays involved in recovery can change from client to client, and a client's progress can be assessed occasionally and more rehab can be recommended based on these findings.
In many cases, a regular outpatient recovery program may be deficient in intensity for someone who is attempting to address a severe substance abuse problem and has never experienced rehab before or has relapsed after prior outpatient rehabilitation.
