About Shoreline Behavioral Health Services
Shoreline Behavioral Health Services is an outpatient treatment center in Conway, South Carolina, that specifically treats drug and alcohol addiction. They have services for adolescents and adults.
The typical addiction treatment program here is an intensive outpatient program or IOP. That’s where you live at home or in a sober living home and you come to the facility for treatment three times a week for three hours each time. This is primarily group therapy, so you’ll be meeting with your peers as well as addiction counselors to discuss and work through the issues that arise on your recovery journey. The IOP can be a helpful way to get an intensive level of treatment while also having a job and managing other responsibilities, so life doesn’t have to come to a halt. After your IOP you can transition into aftercare, which is one session of counseling per week.
There are a few programs and services here that I especially want to highlight. The first is their adolescent program. They have an IOP for teens ages 12 to 18 which addresses addiction within the specific ways that adolescents need. If you have a child younger than 12, though, who is struggling with addiction, then they can still help. They make special arrangements for kids under 12 whenever possible.
The second program to note is their IOP for women. This program addresses the factors that are especially common among women with addiction, like trauma. They can even offer medications like Suboxone and Vivitrol for pregnant clients with opioid addiction. This medication assisted treatment is a service they can provide to any adult client, too.
This facility has a variety of other programs such as a DUI program if you’re facing or convicted of DUI charges, as well as a problem gambling program. They also offer a harm reduction program that provides drug safety education and distributes Narcan for emergency use.
Some clients say they experienced administrative issues, particularly in the DUI program, such as issues with paperwork and reporting. However, a lot of clients here say that the treatment programs are helpful and the counselors are caring and knowledgeable.

Levels of Care
Outpatient
Outpatient Counseling (also known as Level I services) can be delivered in many ways, including group, individual, or family sessions. Level I services range from two hours one time per week to eight hours per week. Your counselor will help you develop a treatment plan that includes the number of sessions appropriate for you. Level I services focus on the difference between use, abuse and dependence, provide knowledge on the addiction process, and expose clients to a variety alcohol/drug related areas of concern(relationships, stress, coping, relapse prevention, and community support).
Intensive Outpatient
Group services are held three times per week, three hours per session. Their Intensive Outpatient program focuses on addiction, recovery, and relapse prevention planning. Many individuals are decreased from three sessions per week to one session per week (called Aftercare) once the intensive phase of treatment is successfully completed.
Inpatient
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.
Intervention 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.
Aftercare Support
Aftercare is a once weekly group service provided to individuals who have an existing knowledge of addiction and the skills needed for ongoing recovery. This group focuses on the relapse prevention process, including advanced skill building strategies to promote long term abstinence from drugs or alcohol.

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
Choosing a drug rehab in South Carolina helps you overcome drug dependency, learn how to manage cravings, and obtain the tools needed to prevent relapse. This is accomplished through individualized treatment that addresses a full spectrum of physical, social, and emotional needs.
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.
Substance Abuse
Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.
Clinical Services
Family Therapy
They offer family services and encourage family involvement through regular progress updates and family support / therapy. Evidence has shown that family involvement in a child’s treatment increases the likelihood of a more successful outcome. Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment.
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. 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.
Trauma 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.
