Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Williamstown, WV.

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

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab programs in Williamstown offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy 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 go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehab center is that clients may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably higher with clients who only go through short term treatment . Clients who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
