Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Fairfax, CA.

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a term used to mean addiction rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because treatment is so short, it is a great financial option and for individuals who for some reason cannot commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehab programs in Fairfax offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation program is that many clients may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater among people who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation center have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
