3 Benefits of Outpatient Drug Counseling
1. Outpatient Addiction Treatment Allows You To Maintain Routines
Struggles with addiction can affect anyone, including individuals with busy lives. Some people may find it difficult to attend addiction treatment because of work or other responsibilities.
An outpatient program allows for the flexibility that clients may need. In our outpatient programs, clients live at home while attending our virtual treatment options. As a result, they can fulfill their obligations at work, school, and home and still receive the treatment they need to begin the road to recovery.
For individuals who require medical detoxification or inpatient care, New Bridge Foundation® offers these services. However, for many, such a level of treatment is not necessary. Sometimes, clients require less intensive treatment that still upholds a high quality of care. Thus New Bridge Foundation® outpatient addiction treatment might be right for you.
2. Outpatient Treatment Helps Build and Maintain Support Structures
Since clients going through outpatient treatment can remain at home, they also have the chance to stay close to loved ones and remain connected to their existing network of support.
Outpatient programs can also be beneficial for clients who have completed a residential program as it can be challenging to transition back to everyday life after an inpatient stay. Outpatient treatment allows clients to continue treatment and maintain the support structures they built during inpatient care while settling in their home environment. It can also offer individuals the opportunity to apply the skills they have learned in residential treatment, including rebuilding relationships and developing new habits.
3. Outpatient Addiction Treatment Allows for Virtual Treatment Options
New Bridge Foundation® launched telehealth options at the very beginning of the pandemic, and then expanded them as the health crisis unfortunately perdured. This methodology of treatment delivery has proven extremely popular due partly to the fact that services are easily accessed from the comfort of ones’ own home. Both one-on-one sessions with treatment addiction specialists and group counseling now occur remotely.
New Bridge Foundation®’s quality of care is seamless, whether offered virtually for outpatient level of care or on site for detoxification and residential programs. Access our comprehensive addiction recovery services, including:
- Individual, family, and group counseling
- Attention to co-occurring disorders
