Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Encino, TX.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used for addiction treatment that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation facility. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who for some reason can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehab centers in Encino have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehab facility is that many people may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with people who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
