About Serenity at Summit New England
Serenity at Summit New England is a modern residential treatment and recovery facility for substance use disorders in Haverhill, Massachusetts. They also address dual diagnosis disorders. This is when someone simultaneously struggles with addictive behavior and mental conditions. Their treatment options include medical detox, clinical stabilization or inpatient rehab, partial hospitalization and an intensive outpatient program (IOP).
This expansive facility offers a tranquil setting where you can comfortably and privately begin your recovery journey without distractions. Their location offers convenient access to major highways for residents of Massachusetts and the surrounding areas. They boast spacious, well appointed rooms with options for private accommodations. Residents have access to recreational areas, fitness centers and chef prepared meals. There are also outdoor walking trails, exercise classes and art and crafts. These are useful for recreational therapy which fosters mental awareness and overall wellbeing.
Their interdisciplinary clinical team comprises experts in behavioral health and addiction recovery. This encompasses licensed counselors, therapists, physicians and nurses. These compassionate professionals are committed to helping you overcome addiction through quality and individualized treatment. Depending on your unique condition you may begin your recovery with medical detox after assessment and individualized treatment planning.
Medical detox cleanses addiction-related toxins from your body and lays the foundation for further treatment. It involves a tailored and carefully executed withdrawal procedure with 24/7 supervision by their trained physicians. These experts may employ medication assisted treatment (MAT) when necessary to manage severe withdrawal symptoms and curb cravings. This ensures that your detoxing is safe and comfortable.
Following detox you can continue your recovery journey via their clinical stabilization. This involves intense therapeutic intervention with round the clock support from their dedicated team of professionals. They offer clinically proven therapeutic models like cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing and trauma informed care. This may be delivered in group or individual formats to help you address negative emotions fueling your behavioral challenges. Emphasis is on developing sound coping mechanisms, preventing relapse and staying sober.
You’ll learn essential life skills like anger/stress management, effective communication and relationship building which facilitate lasting sobriety. You’ll also participate in whole person activities like yoga, meditation and nutritional counseling as well as alternative therapy like acupuncture and reiki. These wellness programs help you develop healthy habits and address the physical, spiritual and emotional aspects of addiction. Their dual diagnosis treatment also includes medication management and dialectical behavior therapy which fosters emotional regulation.
Upon graduating from inpatient care you can step down to either their intensive outpatient program or partial hospitalization program (PHP). Both programs offer ongoing support while allowing you to maintain daily responsibilities. Their intensive therapy involves up to nine hours of group sessions weekly. Sessions are designed to accommodate your work or academic schedule. This makes it ideal if you seek flexibility and convenience.
Partial hospitalization is more structured and involves more intensive care. You’ll attend up to 20 hours of therapy sessions weekly. This is great if you need more support or therapeutic interventions but not 24/7 supervision. You’ll receive treatment in the day and return home in the evening. Both programs involve continued therapeutic progress in group and individual formats as well as peer support. They also include family education and therapy to improve communication with loved ones and strengthen support systems. Comments from past clients reflect an overwhelmingly positive experience and incredible quality of care.

If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.
Financial aid can take many forms. Centers may have grants or scholarships available to clients who meet eligibility requirements. Programs that receive SAMHSA grants may have financial aid available for those who need treatment as well. Grants and scholarships can help you pai for treatment without having to repay.

Addiction Treatments
Levels of Care
Treatments
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.
Addiction is a highly complex problem, and drug rehab in Massachusetts is often necessary to address it. These programs treat physical, mental, and relational issues that are involved. Treatment empowers individuals to manage these issues without the use of drugs.
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.
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 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.
Programs

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 Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a modified form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a treatment designed to help people understand and ultimately affect the relationship between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. DBT is often used for individuals who struggle with self-harm behaviors, such as self-mutilation (cutting) and suicidal thoughts, urges, or attempts. It has been proven clinically effective for those who struggle with out-of-control emotions and mental health illnesses like Borderline Personality Disorder.
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.
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.
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 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.
Couples therapy in Massachusetts is a short term therapy designed to equip you both with the skills you need to address conflicts and challenges in your relationship. During sessions, your counselor may meet with you individually and together.
EMDR is a therapeutic modality originally developed to help process trauma. In an EMDR session, a patient is prompted to undergo eye movements that mimic those of REM sleep. This is accomplished by watching a therapist's finger move back and forth across, or following a bar of light. The goal is repetitive sets of eye movements that help the brain reprocess memory, which can significantly reduce the intensity of remembered traumatic incidents. Associated memories can heal simultaneously, leaving patients significantly calmer, more stable, and more emotionally relaxed.
Their program includes a fluid daily schedule, individualized for each of their clients. A personal schedule is planned to integrate overall wellness, with a focus on recovery. Mornings often begin with mindful meditation sessions, check-ins and psycho-educational groups that focus on key areas of recovery and wellness. Afternoons offer individualized counseling sessions, integrative movement, and group sessions. In the evenings, 12-step meetings and a variety of holistic services are offered. Clients will work with their treatment team in planning for their day.
The life skills you'll learn in rehab range from financial management to practicing healthy self care. They help you learn how to solve problems and make decisions, as well as develop healthy interpersonal relationships – all of which are key to successful recovery.
