Lousage Institute
Enhancing Life. Excelling in Care.
Supervised Detox
Once you have fully eliminated denial and accepted that you have a disease you cannot overcome on your own, you will be admitted to one of our Lousage Institute drug detox clinics. Detox is the process of allowing your body to rid itself of the toxic chemicals that keep you physically dependent. As your body withdraws, you eliminate that dependence and start off on the right foot. Our addiction professionals will provide the support, guidance, and resources you need to overcome physical symptoms and overcome your dependence.
Individual Therapy
After your body has fully rid itself of the toxic chemicals left over from your addiction, you will go to individual therapy with a personal counselor and work on your customized treatment plan that will guide you through recovery. This includes all that necessary therapies and techniques that will cater to your needs and situation. Most importantly, dual diagnosis will be included in your program. Nearly half of all people with an addiction are also struggling with an underlying mental illness. To effectively treat your addiction, you’ll need to have the root cause of your problem identified and addressed. If it is not a mental illness, your case will be handled with the same care and attention to detail as the other clients.
Group Therapy
You will also have the opportunity to take part in group therapy. Together with your fellow clients, you will hear their stories, share your own struggle, and exchange valuable advice. The bonds and community that are formed during group meetings may even last long after your treatment has finished. It is crucial that you be totally honest and completely open during this time in order to effectively share and receive insightful advice. Having the chance to feel real love and support will allow you to see that you are not alone and that you have a vast support system behind you.
Aftercare
When you go to leave the Lousage Institute, you will have a similar aftercare treatment plan set up to meet your needs and the needs of your situation. The therapies and practices that worked for you during treatment will continue and the programs that have not worked will be altered accordingly in order to make sure that you stay on the healthy and rewarding path of sobriety.
