Regular out-patient treatment is usually a less expensive alternative to more comprehensive outpatient centers or inpatient recovery, and is the lowest intensity of formal alcohol or drug rehabilitation available in Castaic. Some clients are attending treatment for the first time and have chosen regular outpatient because that is all they can afford and commitment to time wise and logistically because of work, school or other obligations. For some, regular outpatient is a step down from rehab in a more intense outpatient center like a partial hospitalization or inpatient facility.
Regular outpatient treatment options usually involve individual and group counseling services occurring once or twice a week. Programs which include a wider range of services may include psychotherapies (behavioral therapy) to assist with relapse prevention and dual diagnosis services to help address co-occurring substance abuse and mental health disorders. How long a person stays in rehab can change from client to client, and a person's progress can be assessed every now and then and an extension of rehab can be recommended contingent upon these evaluations.
In many cases, a regular outpatient treatment program is going to be lacking in intensity for a client who is attempting to address a bad drug and alcohol problem and has not gone to recovery before or has fallen off the wagon following previous outpatient treatment.
