Treatment

The treatment philosophy at Michael's House incorporates a variety of clinical components to create a comprehensive, integrative Treatment Program. The components of our integrated approach to alcohol rehab and drug rehab include detox, individual therapy, and group therapy. Our drug rehab program is founded on The Foundations Treatment Model, which utilizes Motivational Interviewing methods and philosophies and recognizes Stages of Change in the recovery process.

Why a Treatment Program is Important?

Many drug rehab and alcohol rehab programs offer treatment that deals with addiction but not the other emotional and mental issues that the majority of individuals with substance abuse issues are also facing.

Up to 65.5% of individuals with substance abuse/dependency issues have at least one co-occurring mental disorder, and 51% of individuals with a mental disorder also have at least one co-occurring addictive disorder (Kessler, 1994).

Michael's House offers treatment for addictive disorders and co-occurring mental disorders together. Our evidence based, integrative methods have been proven more effective than traditional drug and alcohol treatment methods in a five-year research study using the Foundations Treatment Model.

At Michael's House we help people restore their lives by embracing a way of life based upon the 12-Step principles of Alcoholics Anonymous (AA), Narcotics Anonymous (NA) and Dual Recovery Anonymous (DRA). Our program is founded on The Foundations Treatment Model.
