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

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation facility. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug rehab facilities in Long Branch offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab facility is that many individuals may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among individuals who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then transition into an intensive 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.
