Intensive Outpatient: Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) are for those who want or need a very structured treatment program but who also wish to live at home and continue with certain responsibilities (such as work or school). IOP substance abuse treatment programs vary in duration and intensity, and certain outpatient rehab centers will offer individualized treatment programs. Outpatient: Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare. Inpatient: As part of their Residential Reentry program, they offer a comprehensive range of services designed to help people who are transitioning from the corrections system back into the community. They provide these services in safe, supportive environments, so clients receive the guidance they need to navigate the challenges of finding employment and reconnecting with family members. Their Residential Reentry services include cognitive behavioral treatment using the Equip Program, and chemical dependency treatment, workforce development, case management, housing assistance and strong linkages to community services and resources. Together, they provide their clients with the support they need to transition back to their homes, their families and their communities. Aftercare Support: Theirs is a comprehensive program that begins with a thorough assessment, continues with in-depth substance abuse treatment services and the development of a personal relapse prevention plan. Aftercare is a critical part of this program, offering follow-up support and opportunities to put the concepts discussed during the program to practical use in each client\'s life.

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. Family Therapy: Alvis is very proud to be a leader in providing family-focused programming designed to break the cycle of family trauma. Their Family & Children\'s Program strengthens families through educational classes and hands-on practice to improve parenting skills, enhance coping abilities and build healthier relationships. In addition, family activities provide clients and their children the chance to spend time together in a healthy environment that encourages communication and strengthens family bonds. 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. Life Skills: For their clients, another key to keeping on track is having meaningful employment that provides a paycheck and a long-term career path. To help them achieve both and overcome barriers to financial stability, the Alvis Community Reentry Center provides job readiness training, skills training, case management, budgeting, GED classes, and related support services. The workforce development training/HIRE (Help In Reentry Employment education) is designed to address barriers created by an individual’s criminal justice involvement. he HIRE education class covers a range of topics, including interview skills, resume writing and job retention, and serves as a support group for participants. Trauma Therapy: Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client\'s past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.

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 of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person\'s mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation. 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. Substance Abuse: They find that people can\'t change their behavior without also changing their thinking. And for many, that includes addiction to alcohol and drugs. The Alvis Recovery Choices is a cognitive-behavioral treatment program with skills practice sessions that give our clients the tools they need to improve their decision-making skills, enhance coping abilities and build healthier drug- and alcohol-free lives.
