Break from Triggers and Temptations

Who Should Choose Residential Rehab?

Our residential rehabilitation treatment programs are designed for people with severe addiction, co-occurring disorders, or individuals who struggle with relapses. As the starting point for our continuum of care, the residential level of care provides the client with the opportunity to begin learning how to live comfortably without mind altering substances.

While acknowledging the valuable roles that emotional and spiritual development play in recovery we also focuses on the need to repair and rebalance deficits in brain chemistry related to the clients’ addictions. 

We utilize amino acids and nutritional therapies to support early recovery and rebalance brain chemistry. By using an abstinence model, combined with targeted nutrients, our clients are able to feel better faster.

Targeted Interventions

The Benefits of Residential Addiction Treatment

If you’re looking for the most comprehensive form of care, residential treatment might be the right option. By staying within the safety and securing of our residential program, our medical staff and healthcare professionals can provide around the clock care, supervision and compassionate support. Residential treatment creates safe spaces for recovery, growth and healing. We do so by providing: 
24-hour Support: Around the clock monitoring and support can be truly advantageous in the early days of recovery, particularly when one is still experiencing withdrawal symptoms. The safety and security of having staff available assists clients in tracking progress, identifying areas of struggle and helps prevent relapse behaviors.
Distance and Separation: Participation in our residential program creates space from the client’s life in active addiction, removing distractions and providing distance from unhealthy people and places or situations that may trigger substance use.  Distance from the client’s previous life allows for discernment and perspective and fosters the internal commitment to sustained recovery.

Focused Attention From Staff and Clinicians: The intensity of our residential substance abuse treatment program treatment allows for quick rapport and engagement with therapists and staff.  Through building trust and safety with BTG’s providers, clients rapidly gain insight into who they are and who they aspire to be.
Structure and Routine: Our residential program provides clients with a daily structure that provides a reset for healthy habits like sleep, nutrition, exercise and self-care.  Everything we do at the residential level is designed to allow our clients to feel the benefits of resuming a healthy schedule, enhancing commitment to carry forward the healthy routine when they’re ready to transition to a lower level of care.
Having a safe and structured place with expert and compassionate staff when you’re struggling can make all the difference in your road to recovery.

FAQs

Find answers to commonly asked questions about addiction and recovery.

  • Does residential treatment work equally for all addiction types?

    Our overarching philosophy and approach to residential treatment applies to all addictions. We focus on evidence-based treatment modalities with strong emphasis on building community and getting to the roots of addiction. Though the core program works equally for all addiction types, we individualize each client’s journey. One of the big differences in treating the various types of addiction is how we customize our amino acid therapy program. Depending on the drug of choice, clients will present with deficiencies in different neurochemicals. We address those deficiencies according to the client’s symptoms.

  • How do residential and outpatient rehab programs compare?

    Most of our clients admit to treatment at the residential level of care. This level of care is the most intensive that we offer and provides a safe space for clients to stabilize physically, mentally, and emotionally. The added support of 24/7 care creates a safe environment for clients to get clean with limited access to opportunities for relapse. Our outpatient programs provide a taper in the intensity of care that is required. As a client is ready, they step down through PHP, IOP, and OP which each provide for greater autonomy and opportunities to practice the skills learned in treatment. This tapered approach to treatment provides the greatest opportunity for long-term recovery.

  • How long is residential rehab?

    All of our treatment is individualized based on the client’s specific needs. We do not have a predetermined length of stay as each client will require something slightly different. Our program is built to provide a long-term continuum of care. On average, clients can expect to be in residential treatment for the first 3 – 4 weeks of their treatment and then transition into our second phase of treatment which utilizes the outpatient levels of care combined with supported sober living options.
