Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Mount Laurel, NJ.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment program. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation programs in Mount Laurel have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term substance abuse rehab program is that many clients may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehab within the timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably higher with individuals who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
