Before you can conquer alcoholism or drug addiction, it's important to fully understand them. Every individual is affected by different factors that lead you to addiction or substance abuse. We will explain how drugs affect the body, why people use them, and how to get help for alcoholism.
The Underlying Causes of Addiction
To get a quick high, or to manage stress or other health issues, many people turn to drugs of abuse. The co-occurring symptoms of mental disorders can be made worse by the use of alcohol or other drugs. We teach healthy ways of coping with unhappiness and address all underlying causes of addiction.
Individualized treatment is necessary for those suffering from drug or alcohol addiction. You should tailor it to your specific needs. We will work closely with you to develop a customized treatment plan that includes counseling, individual therapy, and group therapy.
Tested Treatment Methods
We offer safe environments designed for you to detoxify your body from alcohol and other substances. However, detox is only the beginning. To help you succeed, we teach stress-relief techniques, healthy coping strategies and other skills.
Supporting long-term recovery
Recovery is a journey that lasts a lifetime. It's easier to get help when you have it. Support groups and guidance are key to your success in drug rehab. Support is available to you, regardless if you are in recovery yourself or supporting someone else.
A small percentage of addicts seek treatment, despite the perceived high costs. However, the cost of treatment is small compared to the possible health and social consequences of not seeking it. These can be prevented by seeking treatment immediately.
Millions of Americans are living with addiction every day. A U.S. surgeon-general report from 2016 estimates that almost 21 million Americans suffer with a substance use disorder. Only 10 percent receive treatment for substance abuse.
Why? Costs are a major reason. In fact, nearly 40% of Americans suffering from a substance-related disorder didn't seek treatment because they couldn’t afford it.
The cost of treatment can be far lower than the cost associated with addiction. A lot of people are unaware that insurance can greatly reduce the cost for rehab. New laws require that insurance companies cover treatment for mental illness and addiction.
How Much Does Rehab Cost
Each level of treatment in addiction centers across the country is different. People with more severe drug use disorders are likely to require more intensive and longer-term treatment. Standard treatment is generally more expensive than intensive care.
Detox
Detoxification is the process of removing drugs from the body and safely ending withdrawal. According to data from drug treatment centers across the United States, a 30-day detox program costs between $250 and $800 per day.
Residential Treatment
Basic residential treatment costs between $2,000 - $20,000. It often involves assessments and round-the-clock supervision. Long-term residential services, lasting 60 to 90 days, can cost twice as much.
Luxury rehab centers can charge up to $25,000 per 30 days. Private treatment centers usually charge less.
Outpatient Rehab
Individuals can receive outpatient treatment while they live at home. Through a series or appointments, patients can become drug-free and live in their own homes. Outpatient care is often available for as little as $5,000 per month. Outpatient care can cost up to $10,000 in some facilities.
Intensive Outpatient Rehab
Intensive outpatient care is a more thorough form of outpatient healthcare. It generally involves multiple appointments per semaine that last approximately three hours each. This type of care costs anywhere from $3,000 to $10,000 for 30 consecutive days.
Partial Hospitalization Programs
Partial hospitalization programs on the other hand are designed for patients who need to be treated intensively during the day, but can return to their normal home environment in the evening. PHP typically costs between $350- $450 per hour.
Medication-Assisted Opioid Treatment
The U.S. Department of Defense released a 2016 report that estimated the cost of various opioid treatment programs.

Programs that are cost-free
Although treatment centers can be expensive, there are some that offer payment assistance and sliding fee scales. Some facilities offer programs at no cost, which are paid for by state taxes. These state-sponsored programs are often subject to long waitlists.
People in recovery can also turn to support groups like Narcotics Anonymous or Alcoholics Anonymous. These 12-step programs have been helping millions of people to achieve and maintain sobriety for more than 60 years through regular meetings. There are some faith-based organizations that offer free treatment.
