Levels of Care
Medically Assisted Detox
Alcohol, opioid and sedative-abusing patients may require detoxification. This medical process prevents withdrawal and any medical complications that may accompany withdrawal. Outpatient detoxification allows the patient a comfortable transition into recovery. Alcohol, opioids and sedatives each have their own outpatient detoxification protocols. Managed by experienced addiction medicine specialist physicians, the outpatient detoxification process is well tolerated. Once outpatient detoxification is underway, the patient may attend the Intensive Outpatient treatment sessions.
Intensive Outpatient
Intensive Outpatient Program – Phase 1 is designed for patients with alcohol addiction, this group meets three hours a day, three days a week for eight weeks. Facilitated by experienced highly trained addictions counselors, the Intensive Outpatient Program integrates education, self-awareness and a 12-step approach to recovery. The Intensive Outpatient Program – Phase 2 is for patients completing the Intensive Outpatient Program, this program is a less-intense continuation of recovery program. Meeting twice a week, Continuation of Care allows patients to enhance their recovery skills by building on previously learned recovery principles. Continuation of Care is an 6-10 month program.
Outpatient
Outpatient programs are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. Continuum of Care Outpatient Group Therapy, Phase II of Intensive Outpatient Group Therapy, is two one-hour sessions a week. Traditional Outpatient Group Therapy is one hour each week. The Outpatient Education Groups are designed to educate and support clients who have an abuse or a mild diagnosis (typically first-time drug or DUI offenders and/or those not diagnosed with addiction). A certificate is offered to prove group completion to courts, employers, etc. Groups meet one hour a week for 12-26 weeks.
12-Step
12-step programs are addiction recovery models based on Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). The 12-step philosophy is a community effort of recovery that has helped millions of people. The process takes time and is a big commitment but is life transforming. Based on the guiding principles of a 12-step program, New Life’s 12-step meetings are a proven course of action for helping clients take steps toward tackling problems with substance abuse, drug and alcohol addiction, and compulsion … and ultimately ending their addictions for life. Their in-house meetings are led by counselors and alumni and are intended for active clients only. The purpose is to teach clients the importance of engaging in the community-based 12-step programs. These meetings are an integral part of continued recovery through a sober network. Because of the effectiveness of the 12-step program, New Life requires outside 12-step meeting attendance of all clients in their Intensive Outpatient Program and Continuum of Care.
Aftercare Support
Continuum of Care/Phase II is a step down of the Intensive Outpatient Program. It is a less intensive but crucial phase of recovery in which clients address their individual needs in a safe, confidential atmosphere. By this phase, clients have established a “home group” and a sponsor, ensuring they have a solid recovery network in place before New Life steps down its level of support. Clients meet twice a week for one hour each session. This phase is ongoing.

Treatment
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.
Drug Addiction
Once a person has become addicted to a substance, drug rehab in Maryland is often necessary to overcome that addiction. These programs provide the tools individuals need to manage the physical, mental, and emotional issues involved and begin a successful recovery journey.
Dual Diagnosis
New Life’s mental health services include psychiatric evaluations for clients with co-occurring illness, medication management, and treatment for anxiety, depression, and bi-polar disorder. These services are provided to current New Life clients or clients who have completed our treatment program and are maintaining sobriety. Clients who are dual diagnosed (substance-related disorder and mental health disorder) must enroll in the substance abuse treatment program before they can see any doctor or therapist for other services, such as opiate detox, alcohol detox, and/or mental health services.
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.
Clinical Services
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
Recovery is a family affair. If your loved one is struggling with substance abuse, drug or alcohol addiction, and/or related behavioral issues, it’s affecting you, too. Their free Family & Friends Support Group meets the third Thursday of every month, from 7 to 8 pm, in Suite 201 to explain and discuss the disease of addiction, give you strategies to deal with certain issues, and recommend other resources and groups available to you.
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. During Individual Psychotherapy, clients work with a licensed therapist in a safe, caring, and confidential atmosphere to explore their feelings and behaviors, work through challenges, better understand themselves, set personal goals, and work toward desired change. Psychotherapy is usually recommended during the step-down phase of the Intensive Outpatient Program and, of course, is available to any client in need of this service.
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.
Trauma Therapy
Trauma experiences – including intimate partner violence, rape/sexual abuse, and childhood abuse and/or neglect – are risk factors for mental health, substance abuse, and other health problems. Knowledge of the possible risk factors and their consequences is critical in preventing and treating mental health and substance use disorders among women, who are more vulnerable to violence and trauma. 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.
