Outpatient

Outpatient treatment for drug and alcohol abuse is a type of addiction program for non-residential patients. Our outpatient program offers flexibility so individuals can receive care while still being able to live at home. Outpatient treatment includes therapy and counseling sessions on a regular basis. This means that you will travel to the rehab facility several times a week for treatment, but then will be able to return to your own home each day.

Outpatient treatment may last for as long as the individual needs. While in outpatient care, individuals continue with their regular activities such as work or school. They can be with their family and spend time on social outings also.

The goal of Blue Star Recovery’s outpatient rehab in NJ is to provide those who are in recovery for substance use disorders with support, education, and tools so they can overcome their addiction and maintain their sobriety long-term.

Who Can Benefit from Outpatient Rehab?

Any individual who is in recovery from drug or alcohol abuse can benefit from attending our outpatient rehab in New Jersey. If you’ve completed a detox, inpatient rehab, or intensive outpatient treatment program, outpatient rehab is a good next step toward recovery. Outpatient treatment offers ongoing support and therapy that will help maintain sobriety goals and build upon skills for coping with addiction.

Individuals who have an acute substance use disorder may choose an outpatient treatment program rather than inpatient treatment to manage their addiction. Outpatient rehabs offer regular treatments but provide less intensive care than inpatient, partial hospitalization, and intensive outpatient treatment programs.

Having a strong support system outside of the drug and alcohol rehab center is important for those in outpatient treatment programs. Your friends and family can help you be accountable for your sobriety. Outpatient rehab is also a good choice for those who need help but also have professional or personal obligations that prevent them from attending an inpatient program.

Signs and Symptoms of Addiction

Addiction is a complex disorder that can affect everyone differently. The signs and symptoms of addiction also depend on the substance being used and the severity of the addiction. Common signs of drug and alcohol addiction include:

  • Behavioral changes
  • Sleep disturbances (sleeping too much or hardly at all)
  • Withdrawal from social activities
  • Neglecting responsibilities
  • Reckless or risky behavior
  • Weight loss or sudden weight gain
  • Changes in appetite
  • Financial difficulties
  • Relationship problems
  • Legal issues
  • Poor hygiene
  • Red eyes or dilated pupils
  • Agitated behavior
  • Mood swings

Being able to recognize the signs of a drug or alcohol addiction can help you intervene early with a loved one’s substance use disorder. Getting treatment as soon as possible can improve the diagnosis and require less intense treatments. If you notice these signs in yourself or in another you can reach out to Blue Star Recovery for help. Our team is happy to answer questions and help determine which course of treatment would be best.

What to Expect in Outpatient Rehab

Outpatient rehab offers similar treatments to inpatient rehab. When you join an outpatient treatment program you can expect to receive individual therapy, group therapy, family therapy, and support from groups. You’ll receive comprehensive care while still living at your home. This includes weekly therapy and counseling sessions.

When you join an outpatient program, the first step is an assessment to determine the severity of your addiction and create an individualized treatment plan with the therapies you will need to continue your recovery. This treatment plan may include a combination of individual, group, and family therapy as well as dual diagnosis treatment if you have co-occurring mental health disorder or medication assisted treatment, if necessary.

You can expect to take part in various activities that help support your recovery, such as relapse prevention training and physical activities that improve your mental as well as physical health. Outpatient programs also help you make important lifestyle changes to support your recovery goals outside of the treatment facility.

How Long Does Outpatient Treatment Last?

The duration of treatment in an outpatient rehab varies based on the individual needs of those receiving treatment. Outpatient treatment typically lasts 30, 60, or 90 days. In unique cases where the addiction is severe or additional psychological issues are present, treatment may last a year.

The frequency of the therapy sessions and treatments can also depend on the individual but often outpatient rehab involves three to five sessions per week. As you progress through treatment, your sessions may decrease in frequency.
