About
Athens Addiction Recovery Center (AARC) provides a wide range of customized treatment options specifically designed for individuals battling substance use disorders, all within an outpatient framework. Their services include ambulatory medical detox with the possibility of medication-assisted treatment (MAT), day treatment programs, and intensive outpatient programs (IOP) tailored separately for men and women. They also offer innovative ketamine therapy.
The center employs a variety of evidence-based treatment modalities such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) to facilitate individual counseling, group meetings, and family therapy, while also considering co-occurring mental health issues. Clients gain valuable skills to cope with challenges, address emotional injuries, and develop strategies to handle cravings and modify negative behaviors. The IOP features both morning and evening sessions, ensuring clients can balance their recovery with other life commitments.
Post-treatment support remains a priority at AARC, where they provide ongoing care options that include weekly support groups, personal therapy, and case management. The dedicated team collaborates with each client to formulate a personalized continuing care plan aimed at enhancing recovery outcomes. Athens Recovery is committed to helping clients minimize the risk of relapse while effectively handling triggers for sustained recovery.
Treatment Focus
The rehabilitation center specializes in addressing issues related to substance use and concurrent mental health disorders. It offers tailored treatment plans that focus on both conditions simultaneously, ensuring compassionate and individualized care for holistic recovery.
