Treatment Programs

Welcome to His House! The purpose of this article is to inform others about all the elements we offer at our treatment center. This is meant to be a guide of “what to expect” when entering treatment for addiction.

The Decision to Enter Treatment

The decision to enter treatment is a very brave one! Addiction is a disease that affects a person on many different levels. We take recovery from addiction very seriously, and to that end we believe in treating addiction from several different angles. Our ultimate goal is to help addicts overcome their addiction. Addiction is a disease that requires medical and psychological treatment. Each portion of our recovery program works hand-in-hand with each other to offer those suffering from addiction the best chance at recovery. Our staff is composed of highly trained professionals who are compassionate and caring.
“We may think there is willpower involved, but more likely … change is due to wanting power. Wanting the new addiction more than the old one. Wanting the new me in preference to the person I am now.” – George Sheehan

Available Services

If you or someone you love is having a problem with alcohol or drugs, we invite you to take a look at the services that are available at our facility. Addiction does not ever have to be faced alone. The balance of the right medical support, therapies, and tools can help people recover. It does not matter how old or how young a person is, or how long they used. Once addiction has taken hold of a person, it is a terrifying path to endure. If you are suffering from addiction, we want you to know that you do not have to attempt recovery by yourself. Our physicians, nurses, psychiatrists, therapists, and other professionals are on your side. We will formulate a treatment plan that is specific and tailored to helping you get and stay clean. We know that no two people are exactly alike. Treatment plans for addiction have some of the same elements for everyone, however, the plans are unique in that one portion may work for some people but not for others. This is why we are a full-service rehab that uses multiple approaches to recovery. There is help and hope available here. We have provided a brief overview of our treatment approaches.
“Do not wait; the time will never be ‘just right’. Start where you stand, and work with whatever tools you may have at your command, and better tools will be found as you go along.” – Napoleon Hill

Assessment Elements

We use a set of proven tests and evaluations to determine which types of therapy will work for your individual needs.

Medical Evaluation

A total medical evaluation is a substantial step in the beginning stages of treating addiction. This type of evaluation will conclude any damage caused by the use of alcohol and/or drugs. A complete physical will assist our doctors in determining if any other medical issues or concerns are present.

Toxicology Testing

This test is usually performed by obtaining a urine and/or blood sample. Toxicology testing is used to evaluate which types of drugs are present in the system. This is important because it helps our healthcare professionals determine several factors such as the period of withdrawal and if any additional medications are safe to prescribe.

Psychiatric Evaluation

We perform a psychiatric evaluation to determine if there any psychiatric issues existent with addiction. This is important information to gain so that we can begin the correct process of treating specific psychiatric disorders if they are existing.

Pharmacogenetics Testing

This type of testing will determine which types of medication work well with your biology and chemistry and which types will not. Pharmacogenetics testing is a valuable tool because it helps doctors prescribe the optimal medication and/or dose that will be beneficial towards your treatment.

Cognitive Testing

Cognitive testing is a tool used to assess a client’s ability to process information and think clearly. Addiction often causes a mental fog. Addiction can also impair your ability to think rationally and logically. This type of test will help our professionals gauge your current level of thinking processes.

Cognitive Retraining

This therapy takes place when a person’s ability to think has been altered due to their addiction. Cognitive retraining is a vital process to help the way a person in recovery thinks and makes decisions.

Brain Wellness

Addiction is a brain disease. Brain wellness is targeted to balance the brain as well as overall health. Addiction affects certain neurotransmitters throughout the course of drug use. These imbalances can cause other mental health disorders.
“When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems you could not hang on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn.” – Harriet Beecher Stowe

Therapeutic Elements

Therapy plays an essential role in the recovery from addiction. Therapy can also help to treat other mental health disorders that are sometimes co-occurring with the disease of addiction. We believe in the power of a therapeutic relationship.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT is a form of psychotherapy designed to help a person change the way they think. Many addicts have “drinking and thinking” problems. CBT is used to help addicts learn new and improved ways of thinking.

Solution-Focused Brief Therapy

This type of therapy aims at focusing on the solution rather than the problem. This is a practical and valuable therapy approach. Through the help of a skilled therapist, the client will be able to see what the solutions are to their problems in a brief time period. The client will learn strategies to incorporate those solutions into their everyday living.

Psychoeducational Groups

These groups consist of fellow addicts who share common problems and common goals. The group is directed by an experienced professional who will introduce a specific topic. The topic will be discussed and knowledge will be gained about the topic.
“Even if you may be down to the worst, the best is potentially within you. You only have to find it, release it, and rise up with it. This requires courage and character, to be sure, but the main requirement is faith. Cultivate faith and you will have the necessary courage and character.” – Norman Vincent Peale

Experiential Therapies

We adapt a wide variety of experiential therapies, which can help to gain a better and deeper understanding of a patient’s condition. In this way, we are able to create a more accurate treatment plan best suited and appropriate to their specific needs.

Outdoor Therapy

This type of therapy has many benefits for our clients. Outdoor therapy believes in the healing properties of nature. The outdoor setting can bring fresh and new perspectives for those engaged in this type of therapy. This therapy tool is a favorite of many of our clients.

Family Therapy

We believe in helping the addict and their family on the journey to wellness. The family is often affected by the substance abuse of the addict. We will address the importance of communications in families. Family therapy will show how the family of an addict can help them throughout their recovery.

Neuro-feedback

This is a scientific process of retrieving information from your brain about your brain. Drug use alters the brain. Neuro-feedback is used to gain information about your brain. The goal of this type of therapy is to train your brain to resist drug cravings.

Group Therapy

Group therapy consists of meeting with other individuals who also have a problem with addiction in a group setting. The group will have a skilled facilitator to help lead and direct the group. There is much therapeutic value in this type of therapy. Communication with others who are experiencing the same issues and have the same goals is paramount to successful recovery.
