Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - New Haven, CT.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction treatment that does not last long and   lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment facility. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who can't commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation centers in New Haven have 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 be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation program is that people may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are higher with clients who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab facility have more of a chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
