For persons struggling with a drug or alcohol problem who also have the responsibility of a child or children to consider, attending rehab for help isn't an option, unless they find substance abuse treatment in Okeechobee that accepts children. In these kinds of programs, there is supervision, beds and other amenities, childcare and even curriculum and tutoring based programs available to the children while the client receives treatment. The options are very grim when programs do not offer solutions for parents who don't have any other childcare options when they need assistance for a substance abuse problem.
Many of the substance abuse rehab programs that accept kids are gender specific, and most cater to mothers in recovery and their children. In allowing children, this takes a lot of stress and worry off both the parent and the child/children by providing a stable, safe and drug free place to live, receive medical, mental health and social services. In addition, it ends the worry that has plagued the parents because of any drug or alcohol addiction disorder and violence, abuse, etc. associated with it.
As an aspect of a multi-faceted methodology in programs that allow children, family therapy is often used where both the parent and child participate, and the children may also receive individual therapy and psychotherapy as well.
