Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Woodland Hills, CA.

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

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab programs in Woodland Hills offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab facility is that individuals may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably higher with people who only go through short term rehabilitation . Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab center at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
