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

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation center. Because rehab is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers in Leon Valley have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehab facility is that many clients may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are greater with clients who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day treatment center at least have a better chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
