Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Potter Valley, CA.

Short Term drug rehab is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment program. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab programs in Potter Valley offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation program is that clients may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher with individuals who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment facility at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
