Detox and Residential Treatment
This program is designed for adults who need space from day-to-day pressures while they stabilize and begin recovery. Residential withdrawal management (detox) includes monitoring of vital signs, support for physical stabilization, and planning for the next level of care. The setting offers 24-hour staff assistance and a structured routine that helps clients focus on early recovery without distractions.
Group-Focused Care with Daily Structure
DOT emphasizes group therapy as a core part of treatment, with a daily schedule that includes several hours of groups alongside individual sessions. The program also incorporates morning meditation and 12-step study, offering a values-based framework for building accountability and connection. Clients can expect a structured day designed to provide guidance, steady support, and a clear introduction to recovery.
Support for Co-Occurring Mental Health and Trauma
Many people entering substance use treatment are also managing mental health concerns or the effects of trauma. DOT provides co-occurring disorder services in both outpatient and residential levels of care, along with trauma-related counseling. Services may include screening and assessment, individual counseling, group counseling, and family counseling as needed, helping clients address substance use and mental health needs together.
Medications for Addiction Treatment and Coordinated Care
For clients who may benefit from medications for addiction treatment (MAT), the facility offers prescribing and coordination as part of care, including for alcohol use disorder and opioid use disorder. Treatment approaches include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, relapse prevention, 12-step facilitation, and substance use disorder counseling. Telemedicine/telehealth therapy is also available.
Aftercare Planning and Practical Recovery Supports
Planning for life after residential care is built into treatment. DOT provides discharge planning, aftercare, outcome follow-up after discharge, and naloxone and overdose education. Recovery supports can include recovery coaching, peer mentoring, self-help groups, housing services, help accessing social services, and employment counseling or training. Transportation assistance may help reduce barriers to getting to care, especially during transitions back into the community.
