The Last Resort

Adult program Program for men Total beds : 25 Young adult program

Inpatient: The Last Resort provides men a time away in a safe, supportive, and structured environment. Its retreat-like, country setting affords a welcome alternative to hospital-like alcohol and drug treatment facilities that can often feel sterile and unnecessarily restrictive. When a man is ready to change, Nature often plays an important role in his healing process. And from his very first day at the Last Resort, a man can often feel this power. Aftercare Support: The Last Resort encourages men to remain in some sort of continuing care for an additional year following their residential stay. Through transitional living facilities, sober houses and screened recovery coaches, their men receive the support they need when they leave their care. Continued care can help avoid relapse as men maneuver through the first several months of early recovery. Evidence-based care often makes the difference between a man that successfully navigate the recovery process and one that experiences relapse after leaving treatment. Every man successfully completing his course of care with them is encouraged to stay connected to through LRAA, their growing Alumni Association. With weekly Alumni accountability groups your loved one will stay connected with The Last Resort after his 90-day stay at The Last Resort. Medically Assisted Detox: Drug and alcohol addiction often takes a heavy toll on one\'s body. Over time, a physical dependence can develop, meaning the body physiologically needs the substance to function. Detox is the process of removing drugs and/or alcohol from the body, a process that can be lethal if mismanaged. Medical detox is done by licensed medical professionals who monitor vital signs and keep you safe, healthy, and as comfortable as possible as you go through detox and withdrawal. Intervention Services: Their interventionists are certified clinical interventionists, and licensed alcohol and drug counselors. The Clarity intervention process is easily coordinated with an organized approach. They start with an initial over the phone consultation. The interventionist begins working with the family right away. They use a very concise approach to help guide the family through the intervention. There will be pre-intervention counseling with the family team, and the intervention process will begin. Their interventionists will escort loved ones to the facility of choice, and work directly with the family following the intervention

Animal Therapy: Animal therapy (aka pet therapy or animal-assisted therapy) can be very healing, as it allows patients to bond with animals, who give unconditional love. This is particularly useful for those who suffered trauma by the hands of people, who may be able to trust and form closer attachments to animals than humans at certain stages of rehabilitation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a therapy modality that focuses on the relationship between one\'s thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is used to establish and allow for healthy responses to thoughts and feelings (instead of unhealthy responses, like using drugs or alcohol). CBT has been proven effective for recovering addicts of all kinds, and is used to strengthen a patient\'s own self-awareness and ability to self-regulate. CBT allows individuals to monitor their own emotional state, become more adept at communicating with others, and manage stress without needing to engage in substance abuse. Dialectical Behavior Therapy: Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a modified form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a treatment designed to help people understand and ultimately affect the relationship between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. DBT is often used for individuals who struggle with self-harm behaviors, such as self-mutilation (cutting) and suicidal thoughts, urges, or attempts. It has been proven clinically effective for those who struggle with out-of-control emotions and mental health illnesses like Borderline Personality Disorder. Equine Therapy: EquiSteps and Advanced Equine Rhythm are their trademark programs that are setting a new standard in Equine Assisted Therapy. The Last Resort has honed a unique methodology, unlike any other equine programs offered for drug and alcohol treatment centers. Their programs combine 12 step work with physically/emotionally safe experiences with horses and a sound theoretical approach informed by current neurobiology research of the addicted brain. For many clients struggling with issues of addiction, there is a need for more than traditional talk therapy. Their unique EAP program meets these needs. Experiential Therapy: Experiential therapy is a form of therapy in which clients are encouraged to surface and work through subconscious issues by engaging in real-time experiences. Experiential therapy departs from traditional talk therapy by involving the body, and having clients engage in activities, movements, and physical and emotional expression. This can involve role-play or using props (which can include other people). Experiential therapy can help people process trauma, memories, and emotion quickly, deeply, and in a lasting fashion, leading to substantial and impactful healing. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing: EMDR is a therapeutic modality originally developed to help process trauma. In an EMDR session, a patient is prompted to undergo eye movements that mimic those of REM sleep. This is accomplished by watching a therapist\'s finger move back and forth across, or following a bar of light. The goal is repetitive sets of eye movements that help the brain reprocess memory, which can significantly reduce the intensity of remembered traumatic incidents. Associated memories can heal simultaneously, leaving patients significantly calmer, more stable, and more emotionally relaxed. Family Therapy: At The Last Resort they know that supporting the family is just as important as supporting the individual struggling with addiction. That is why every family that comes to The Last Resort receives a customized Family Support Contract. This contract is developed over a period of 30-days just prior to a clients discharge and is a collaborative effort between the client, their family, and their discharge coordinator. Fitness Therapy: Fitness therapy blends exercise with psychotherapy for a fun, inspiring, and effective way of treating addiction and other issues. By incorporating movement into counseling sessions, clients become more empowered, motivated, and goal-oriented, all while strengthening their bodies and becoming more flexible. Fitness Therapy is usually used to complement a course of treatment (inpatient or outpatient) to make it even more successful. Increasing the connection between a patient’s mind and body helps both with healing as well as in creating new, healthy habits. Group Therapy: Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members. Individual Therapy: In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life. Motivational Interviewing: Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a clinical approach to helping people with substance abuse issues and other conditions shift behavior in positive ways. It is more goal-oriented than traditional psychotherapy, as MI counselors directly attempt to get clients to consider making behavioral change (rather than wait for them to come to conclusions themselves). Its primary purpose is to resolve ambivalence and help clients become able to make healthy choices freely. Nutrition Therapy: Years of chemical abuse take a serious toll on the body. At The Last Resort, they believe proper nutrition can play a key role in aiding a man’s recovery from addiction. Through carefully planned, nutritious menus, they help men appreciate the hidden role nutrition can play in controlling their mood swings and aiding them in the recovery process.

Alcoholism: The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings. Dual Diagnosis: Many men come to them suffering from a variety of co-occurring disorders, such as depression or an anxiety disorder. The psychological symptoms of the mental illness may be secondary to the chemical addiction, which means that when the addiction is properly addressed, other symptoms may improve as well. Their onsite clinicians are highly qualified to identify issues associated with addiction and treat those disorders through therapy and medication. Providing a man with the right level of care when it is needed is another strength of the new recovery model utilized at The Last Resort. Mental Health and Substance Abuse: A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track. Opioid Addiction: Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.
