What Happens at Addiction Rehabilitation Centers in Washington State?

What Is Addiction Treatment in Washington State Like? 

Knowing what happens day-to-day during rehab in Washington State can make the idea of starting much less intimidating. Here’s what you’ll find at one of Aliya’s rehab centers (in Washington and elsewhere across the U.S.): 

Initial assessment 

After signing up for rehab with one of our admissions specialists, the first step is a getting-to-know-you session with a counselor or therapist. Here, they’ll ask you some questions about what brings you to treatment, your symptoms and substance abuse history and what you hope to get out of rehab. This sets the stage for a formal diagnosis and development of a customized treatment plan that follows a specific, tailored track for you. 

One-on-one counseling 

Therapy involves sitting privately with your therapist to explore the root causes of your addiction. Why do you drink? What compels you to use substances? And how can you begin reframing a new perspective that empowers you to live free of substances? Therapy sessions are a safe space to talk about your challenges, learn new coping skills and discover more about yourself. 

Group therapy 

An alternative to individual therapy, there is incredible power in connecting with others who understand what you’re going through. In group therapy, you’ll sit with others in rehab for similar challenges, share experiences, offer encouragement and lean on each other in your shared journey. 

Research-driven, outcome-based therapies 

How do we treat addiction? This includes things like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a type of talk therapy which helps you change the thought patterns that lead to substance use, plus other approaches — like Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) — that teach you how to manage difficult emotions and build healthier relationships. 

Holistic Treatment 

We all embody a mind-body-spirit connection, and holistic, which means “whole,” is designed to do just that — treat you as a whole person. This could include anything from yoga, meditation or expressive arts therapy to help heal you cognitively, emotionally, physically and spiritually when each aspect has been affected by substance abuse.  

Choosing the Right Addiction Rehabilitation Center in Washington State  

–overview of treatment options from detox to aftercare at Aliya Health Group  

In the Pacific Northwest, Aliya Health Group opens the doors of four addiction rehabilitation centers Washington State to anyone looking for an opportunity to heal from a drinking or substance problem. It doesn’t matter how mild or severe your challenges are, how it’s affected your life or what it takes to help you down the road to recovery — we welcome you at any point in your journey because we’re committed to meeting you where you are.  

Here’s a look at some of our treatment options you’ll find in our Lacey, Sumner, Spokane and Mead, WA recovery center:   

• Medical detox: This is often the first step for many people in rehab. When you’ve become addicted to drugs or alcohol, stopping abruptly or quitting cold turkey can lead to discomforting (and sometimes life-threatening) withdrawal symptoms. Detox is a safe and medically supervised environment to clear your body of substances and prepare you for the start of therapy. 

• Residential treatment: By living at the center (often anywhere from 30 to 90 days), you’re afforded the chance to focus entirely on your healing in a structured, supervised space, away from outside triggers. 

• Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP): A “step-down” option from inpatient/residential care, here you’ll attend treatment during the day for several hours and return to your home or a sober living environment in the evening, enabling you to fulfill personal and professional obligations. 

• Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP): An outpatient rehab Washington State option like an IOP offers more flexibility without sacrificing the intensive support that many people with serious addictions may need. In an IOP, you’ll attend therapy sessions for a few hours, a few days a week, which allows you to continue with work or school. 

• Outpatient treatment: The most flexible option, outpatient is on the opposite end of the treatment spectrum from inpatient, where you’ll meet with your therapist or group weekly or bi-weekly and return home at night. It’s ideal for people who have transitioned out of inpatient, are at a low risk for relapse and want to apply the skills they learn in therapy in their immediate, day-to-day lives. 

• Aftercare: Once treatment ends, aftercare begins. This means your case manager and therapist can connect you with ongoing therapy sessions or 12-Step groups (like Alcoholics Anonymous) in your area. Before living autonomously, you can also inquire about sober or transitional housing, popular aftercare options.
