There are many, many goals that therapy in an IOP/PHP can help the patient to achieve. As the patient reaches each goal, our medical staff can adjust your treatment plan so that the next goal is within reach as well. Typically, these goals include building the kind of relapse prevention skills that will equip the patient with everything they need after their program has ended. That way, the patient can deal with triggers, the challenges of life, and anything else that could potentially threaten their progress.
Along the way, patients will also learn how to minimize those cravings that they may have. Addictions, powerful as they are, are really symptoms of underlying causes. Therapy at Arision works with the patient to find what those underlying causes are so that they can be dealt with and, in time, overcome. In turn, this helps tremendously with substance use disorders as well as mental health concerns.
