Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Gunter, TX.

Short Term drug rehab is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation center. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who for some reason can't commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehab facilities in Gunter offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facility is that individuals may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater among clients who only receive short term rehabilitation . Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
