Relapse prevention refers to the steps an individual can take in order to protect his or her sobriety or recovery from addiction. While relapses are common in the recovery journey, there are steps an individual can take in order to reduce withdrawal symptoms, increase mindfulness, and move forward with a lower risk of relapse.
When facing substance use disorder and addiction, many lean on the resources provided by a medical detox or addiction treatment center in order to begin the recovery journey. An addiction treatment center provides a safe environment with a built in support system during the initial days of cravings. After years of substance abuse, you or your loved one may be struggling with the physical withdrawal symptoms, and a treatment program allows you to build coping skills at the highest level of care.
First and foremost, when establishing a foundation in addiction recovery, building a relapse prevention plan with the help of a treatment center can ease the process of transitioning from residential treatment into daily life. It’s been proven that “sustained abstinence likely allows time for the brain to resume normal functioning that can lay the foundations for long-term success,” and beginning recovery in a medical detox or medication-assisted treatment situation can enable one to build that foundation.
Our detox and treatment programs provide a combination of individual and group therapy sessions–utilizing cognitive behavioral therapy, support groups, and more–to help you, your loved one, or family member build healthy coping mechanisms and support networks that help with relapse prevention. In addition to holistic mindfulness and self-care practices, our inpatient addiction treatment programs use evidence-based approaches to overcoming cravings and building coping skills. With the help of qualified professionals, your treatment plan can be developed to meet your individual needs, whether you’re struggling with alcohol addiction, another substance use disorder, or mental health conditions.
Aftercare refers to the exit strategy after your stay at an inpatient treatment center. Rather than simply letting you move from a medical detox back into your daily life, New Leaf Detox helps you establish ongoing support networks–whether this consists of additional programming, an outpatient program, sober living options, or relapse prevention resources. Preventing relapse is easier when you have a qualified team of professionals to help you recognize triggers and put strategies in place for recovery.

Facing cravings, the fear of relapse, and life without substances can be intimidating. At New Leaf Detox, we’re here to help you walk through addiction recovery with ongoing support and a combination of treatment options to best equip you as you move forward.
At New Leaf Detox and Addiction treatment, our treatment plans use a combination of evidence-based therapies in order to meet you or your loved one’s individual needs at the highest level of care. Your addiction or dual diagnosis treatment plan will likely consist of some of the following therapy sessions:
Individual therapy takes place in a one on one setting with a licensed professional, usually consisting of a combination of dialectical and cognitive behavioral therapies, in which a person can talk through his or her individual struggles. Individual therapy is one of the most crucial steps for those facing mental health and substance abuse struggles.
Group therapy sessions can be used to help provide structured times to help you understand that you are not alone in your struggles, that your peers are also walking through these challenges, while also providing guidance, suggestions and communications from psychologists with specialized backgrounds.
Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a form of therapy that’s focused on restructuring and reprogramming maladaptive and negative thought processes. Therapists are trained to help you change your cognitive and emotional processes in order to outgrow coping mechanisms that may no longer be serving you.
A crisis is defined by the National Library of Medicine “as an overwhelming event, which can include divorce, violence, the passing of a loved one, or the discovery of a serious illness.” The goal of crisis intervention is to provide safety and reduce any potential harm to an individual or to others while walking through detoxification.
Our on-staff clinicians are equipped to design personalized treatment plans for your continued success. In combination with psychotherapy, medication management is handled safely, with compassionate care at the ready. It’s important for those who are administering prescription drugs to be aware of and monitor any possible side effects, ensuring that clients are receiving the right dose, and that any medication interactions can be flagged immediately for safety purposes.
At New Leaf Detox, we provide compassionate clinical care, holistic attention, evidence-based therapies, and treatment plans that are designed to meet your individual needs. We understand that our clients are human beings struggling with addiction, who need compassion rather than judgment or shame. Our clinical staff is trained to show up with understanding, providing a safe and secure environment for addiction treatment, at the highest level of care. Call today to begin your addiction recovery journey.
