ACBC offers several levels of care for the treatment of substance abuse and chemical dependency, as well as treatment for individuals who have a co-occurring mental health diagnosis.

 
Basic Addictions Group
This group is offered for individuals who are new to treatment and do not require intensive services.  Basic Addiction Group meets either twice weekly, or once weekly, on Saturday, for individuals who may not be able to attend services Monday thru Friday. This group focuses on education and making healthy choices.
 
Intensive Outpatient Treatment

Intensive Outpatient Treatment, or IOP, is offered during daytime and evenings hours, 3 to 4 days per week, for approximately 3 hours per session.  IOP is for individuals who need more intensive intervention and support to accomplish and maintain abstinence. IOP includes didactics in the form of lectures, presentations, videos and other media as well as therapy and process group.  We also provide COD IOP for those who require treatment for a co-occurring psychiatric disorder. 

 

Outpatient Rehabilitation Treatment

Outpatient Rehabilitation, or OP Rehab, is provided 5 days a week for up to 4 hours daily.  Patients participate in 2 groups daily.  Each patient's daily group schedule is individualized to meet their treatment plan goals.  Schedules may include individual therapy, chemical dependency education group, speciality groups, process therapy group, and breakfast.  Vocational education, life skills, and nutrition are key components of this level of care.  This modality is for individuals who are in need of stabilization, increased community support, monitoring of medical issues, and relapse prevention. OP Rehab is a cost-effective alternative to traditional 28-day inpatient programs and allows the patient to remain in their community.  Our COD tract provides specialized care for those individuals who require treatment for their co-occurring psychiatric illness, with specialized groups to provide illness education and symptom management.  Psychiatric evaluation and medication monitoring is part of treatment.

 

Aftercare Groups

Aftercare groups meet twice weekly for 1.5 hours, and are specialized groups for those who may have completed a higher level of care.  Aftercare focuses on applying recovery concepts to daily life, as well as establishing and maintaining sober support networks.

 

Relapse Prevention

Relapse Prevention meets twice weekly for 1.5 hours and highlights a cognitive-behavioral approach to avoiding relapse and identifcation of triggers.  Patients focus on developing relapse prevention strategies and coping skills. When indicated, cognitive behavioral therapy is used.
