Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Gonzales, LA.

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation facility. Because treatment is not long, it is a great financial option in most cases and for people who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation facilities in Gonzales have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab program is that people may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

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