About Abraxas Ohio

Abraxas is a youth oriented drug and alcohol addiction recovery center in the heart of Shelby, Ohio. When treating young clients, they take an approach that focuses on family relationships in order to explore those dynamics and build a support system for and after recovery. It's a residential setting with modern amenities in a private location. While inpatient treatment is limited to adolescents, Abraxas does offer outpatient care for adults. The treatment program uses the Sanctuary treatment and recovery model as a base.

The Abraxas inpatient program is open to adolescent males in crisis. Clinical staff provides clients and their families with therapy and education opportunities to give them a better understanding of addiction. Clients reside on campus for the duration of treatment, receiving 24 care from staff.

Each treatment plan is customized to meet the needs of the client. The program’s core is cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which promotes increased self awareness, emotional awareness, and the development of communication skills. CBT reveals and dissects thinking patterns to show clients how their emotions lead to action and that positive changes can be made by changing how one thinks and reacts to stressful triggers.

Abraxas applies individual and group therapy, family therapy and counseling, case management, and mental health services to inpatient clients as needed.

The outpatient program is open to adults and adolescents regardless of gender. The Abraxas outpatient care program provides clients with the same treatment services as the inpatient program, but clients do not live at the facility. Instead, they make regular visits to engage in group treatment.

Abraxas offers gender specific programs on an outpatient basis. These specialized programs address the unique challenges men and women face during the recovery process.

Abraxas is accredited by the Joint Commission and is a PREA certified facility.

Medical briefcase icon Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient

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 iconInpatient

Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.

intensive-outpatient iconIntensive 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.

aftercare iconAftercare

Rehab aftercare programs are designed to ensure clients receive continuing care while in the maintenance phase of recovery. Some clients may be in outpatient treatment, which is generally considered to be an element of drug rehab aftercare. The specific services provided in these programs are often determined by the client's case manager and care team in consultation with the client. Common services include peer coaching, career counseling, and 12 step program induction.

12-step icon12-Step

Many treatment centers base their recovery models on the 12 step programming standard, which combines intensive peer support with spiritual, psychological, and emotional growth. Participants in 12 step recovery programs are expected to regularly attend group meetings, which are free, anonymous, peer-led, and open to the public. They are also required to select a sponsor to guide them through the recovery journey. These programs deploy spiritual principles to foster participants' self-understanding, forgiveness, acceptance, and accountability.

heart-hands iconIntervention Services

Intervention services helps family or friends of addicts stage an intervention, which is a meeting in which loved ones share their concerns and attempt to get an addict into treatment. Professional intervention specialists can help loved ones organize, gather, and communicate with an addict. They can guide intervention participants in describing the damage the addict's behavior is causing and that outside help is necessary to address the addiction. The ideal outcome of an intervention is for the addict to go to rehab and get the help they need.

partial-hospitalization iconPartial Hospitalization Program

A partial hospitalization program (PHP) is a short-term form of intensive rehab, usually for those with acute symptoms that are hard to manage but don’t require 24-hour care. PHPs have structured programming (i.e. individual and/or group therapy), and usually meet 3-5 days a week for around 6 hours (i.e. 9am-3m). Some PHPs are residential (patients sleep on site) and some are not, so patients sleep at home. PHPs can last from 1-6 months, and some offer transportation and meals.

medically-assisted-detox iconMedically Assisted Detox

Medical detox involves clearing your body of drugs and/or alcohol under the 24/7 care of licensed medical professionals. If you've become dependent on alcohol or drugs (like benzodiazepines or opioids), quitting abruptly can have uncomfortable and even dangerous side effects. The purpose of medically assisted detox is to keep you as safe and comfortable as possible during this process. Medications like Suboxone or Vivitrol may be provided if necessary to mitigate any withdrawal symptoms.

Heart icon Treatment

alcohol iconAlcoholism

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.

drugs iconDrug Addiction

Drug rehab in Ohio provides comprehensive treatment to address the physical and psychological needs of those struggling with substance use disorders. This may involve inpatient and/or outpatient care.

check iconDual 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.

mental-health iconMental 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.

opium iconOpioid 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.

inpatient-file iconCognitive 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 iconDialectical Behavior Therapy

The main goals of dialectical behavior therapy are to teach you how to regulate your emotions, develop positive ways to cope with stress, improve your relationships, and live in the moment. This therapy lasts about six months and involves weekly individual and group sessions.

intervention iconGroup 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.

mental-health iconIndividual 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.

desert iconMotivational Interviewing

Therapists who apply motivational interviewing in Ohio don't try to confront clients or force advice onto them. Instead, they listen and come alongside clients to help them explore why and how they might decide to make changes for themselves.

house-medical iconTrauma 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.

life-skills iconLife Skills

Life skills trainings involve all the skills a person must have in order to function successfully in the world. These include time management, career guidance, money management, and effective communication. Truly successful addiction recovery is based on the ability to not only live substance-free, but to thrive. Life skills teaches the practical necessities of functioning in society, which sets clients up for success in life, and therefore sobriety.

A joke of a place, only formed to siphon off tax money. Corrupt and zero employee accountability. I believe they hire right off the street or people coming right out of prison. Run like any other government fund draining facility. Fake it up to your face and do nothing prod ... Read More

My grandson was there, and ran away. Called to get info, and no one could tell me anything. It's like he didn't exist. Now he's wondering around the Shelby area without proper clothing for the weather. No one inside the facility cares about these kids.

I was a counselor here for about 4 months. The way administration treats staff & the youth residents is unethical. The youth are denied phone calls to family members half of the time, they are treated worse than inmates, & they do the bare minimum to better these boys. If you re an employee who genuinely cares about the residents and bring up concerns to higher-ups, they outcast you to the point you either have to quit or you ll get fired. I was injured on the job, they told me I needed to go to the ER to get assessed. I went & got assessed, had numerous restrictions, but HR demanded I come back & that they were able to accommodate those restrictions. In that environment it is physically impossible to accommodate restrictions that require avoiding areas of altercation. They did not pay one single penny of my workers comp.I have previously worked for CPS & in no way is this a rehabilitating environment for youth struggling with addiction or other family matters.Never work there. Never let your friends work there. Never let kids in your county go here

My brother has been in there for months because they won t let him come home. He has lost weight and it does not look like they are feeding him properly. He has not been able to wash his hair because they have prohibited the use of shampoo in the facility. They will not release him even though he has been doing everything he can to get better and come home. Those kids are not supported, poorly fed, verbally, physically, and emotionally abused. They let me see him once then turned around and said I needed to do a drug and background test if I wanted to see him again. They aren t allowed puzzle books or anything that can potentially keep them from killing themselves. My brothers father passed away before his birthday in September and they cut off all communication and did not let my mother visit hism for weeks after and took it upon themselves to tell him his father had passed and prohibited his phone calls. He was isolated when he needed support the most. This is a horrible terrible place and I wouldn t dare send the worst kid.

I spent 9 months in Abraxas when I was 17 and turned 18 back in 2006. I don't how this place is still open. I've personally been beaten by the staff at the time there. And witnessed many beatings that they call "restraints". I've never seen a restraint require a fist to your face and kicks tonyour ribs while your being held down by multiple grown men

Staff members antagonize kids to get a reaction out of the kids and use it against them to keep them locked up longer, to rack on new charges and or to send them some place worse. The social workers and counselors are highly unethical here as well and engage in emotional, verbal, and physical abuse along with discrimination. When they were reported, nothing happened as they were protected by the higher ups. As for myself, they prevented me from seeing kids when they found out that I was the whistle blower. This place should be closed down.
