Drug and alcohol treatment services are offered in a vast range of formats, so there is definitely something for everyone in Stony Brook. Treatment services may be done in both an outpatient and inpatient basis, where outpatient treatment services range from 1 or 2 days of treatment per week to intensive outpatient treatment which is done daily. Outpatient treatment services range from individual counseling and group counseling, to more advanced psychotherapies to modify behavior and motivate clients to stay sober.
Residential and inpatient treatment is offered to individuals who suffer with more complex histories of drug and alcohol abuse, ranging from 30 day programs to 90 day programs. Some facilities offer what is called a Therapeutic Community model, where clients may stay up to a year in some cases. The longer the person remains in in treatment and benefits from rehabilitation services and a clean and sober environment, the greater their chances of staying clean and being able stay that way without needing such a comprehensive system of recovery and support. Services at a residential or inpatient drug and alcohol treatment program are commonly more diversified and will encompass recovery services for addiction but also other co-occurring mental health disorders. Aftercare services are key even after long-term rehab, and many programs recommend continued participation in the program for a few months until the person has progressed into a drug free way of life.
