The doorway to accessing treatment and recovery starts with an Assessment by a State Certified Substance Use Disorder Professional. 

Substance use disorders are a disease like any other medical condition affecting brain function and everyday behavior. It leads to a dependence on drugs, alcohol or medications; if addicted, the individual continues to use the drug even if it’s harming them. Every drug is different, so there’s no single way to determine if someone will develop an addiction.

There are a few reasons clinicians perform an assessment. Mainly, it’s to determine if an individual meets the criteria for a substance use disorder diagnosis and, if so, how severe the disorder is at that time. Other reasons include finding out if there’s a comorbid disorder or other drugs being used and to learn how much substance use affects the person’s daily life.The information gathered during the evaluation is private and only used to create a personalized treatment plan to focus on during the recovery process.

INTENSIVE OUTPATIENT PSYCHOTHERAPY

Responsible Care

An intensive outpatient program can be the first line of treatment, a step up from a less structured outpatient program when needed, or a step down from a residential program after a certain amount of progress is made. This helps to form a seamless continuum of care. Our Intensive Outpatient Program at Sound Integrated Health includes a minimum of (3) 2-hour group therapy sessions per week for the initial 90 days of treatment accompanied by a 60 minute individual therapy session at a minimum of once per month.
