Levels of Care
Inpatient Rehab
Clients receiving care at an inpatient rehab are often seeking more intensive structure, support, and supervision than an outpatient program can provide. Clients temporarily live at the treatment center, engaging in multiple therapeutic sessions a day. Treatment typically involves extensive individual, group, and family counseling. Many facilities also prioritize recovery-focused life skills training to support sustained sobriety, and evidence-based holistic care, such as meditation and message, to alleviate stress and anxiety.
Intensive Outpatient
Clients undergoing treatment in an intensive outpatient program (IOP) typically are those who are leaving inpatient rehab or who have elected to forgo residential care following detox. Clients engage in at least nine hours of treatment weekly, on average, but may receive up to 20 hours of care, with the frequency and intensity of treatment decreasing as clients stabilize. Intensive outpatient treatment often combines psychotherapy, recovery education, holistic care, and medication assisted treatment (MAT).
12-Step
Clients engaged in 12 step programs receive ongoing and intensive peer support while cultivating spiritual, emotional, and psychological practices to facilitate recovery. Regular attendance at 12 step meetings, which are anonymous, free, and accessible both online and in most communities, is expected. Early in their recovery, participants select a sponsor to mentor them in their recovery. Religious affiliation is not required, but faith-based and other specialized formats are available.
Sober Living Homes
Sober Living Houses (SLHs), aka sober homes or halfway houses, are safe, substance-free, supportive living facilities for those recovering from substance abuse. Ideal for those who've just been through inpatient or outpatient treatment, SLHs are supervised environments with rules that support sobriety, such as curfews, shared chores, and therapeutic meetings. Residents are also often trained on life skills and coping skills to make it easier to transition into society. SLHs also provide a strong sense of community that can lead to the kind of deep and lasting connections with other sober individuals that supports a new, healthy lifestyle.
Medically Assisted Detox
Drug and alcohol addiction often takes a heavy toll on one's body. Over time, a physical dependence can develop, meaning the body physiologically needs the substance to function. Detox is the process of removing drugs and/or alcohol from the body, a process that can be lethal if mismanaged. Medical detox is done by licensed medical professionals who monitor vital signs and keep you safe, healthy, and as comfortable as possible as you go through detox and withdrawal.

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
The programs offered at drug rehab in Wyoming address the underlying issues of addiction, with the goal being to get to the root of the problem. By learning to manage issues without substance use, you are empowered to live a healthy, drug-free life.
Dual 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.
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
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) in Wyoming can occur in various formats. Common types of CBT include dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, mindfulness based cognitive therapy, and rational emotive behavior therapy. The main focus of each is to help participants change thought and behavior patterns.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy
Substance use disorder treatment in Wyoming may include dialectical behavior therapy. This evidence based approach seeks to give clients the tools they need to manage their emotions and make healthy changes in thinking and behavior. Treatment includes individual sessions, group skills sessions, and homework assignments.
Group Therapy
Group therapy sessions empower men and women in Wyoming to recognize their inner strength and capabilities as they work to overcome addiction. This helps boost self esteem and self confidence, which are factors in relapse prevention programs. By recognizing the triggers and high risk situations, you can develop coping mechanisms to maintain sobriety.
Individual Therapy
Men and women in Wyoming seeking personalized help for drug and alcohol addiction treatment usually undergo individual therapy. This involves a collaborative effort between you and the therapist to address your needs and challenges. A customized approach helps your therapist develop effective strategies to overcome addiction and maintain a substance free life.
Motivational Interviewing
Motivational interviewing helps you recognize the importance of change and your capacity to make change. It empowers you to change rather than providing warnings or directions to change. This method is often used in the treatment of substance use disorder.
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.
Couples Therapy
For many couples, attending couples therapy in Wyoming is a powerful way to strengthen their relationship. It can be useful for improving communication, increasing intimacy, navigating addiction, or rebuilding trust. Sessions typically last about 12 weeks.
Family Therapy
Addiction takes an emotional toll on all members of the family. Family therapy sessions help members openly talk about these challenges and develop effective coping strategies to create a stable environment that supports their loved one's recovery.
