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

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a term used for substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation facility. Because treatment is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who cannot commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation programs in Topanga offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment 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 drug and alcohol rehab center is that many clients may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater among people who only go through short term rehab . Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
