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

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a term used to mean addiction rehab that does not last long and   lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab program. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is a great financial option and for clients who can't commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities in Portland offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation center is that individuals may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are greater among people who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation center at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
