Extended Drug Treatment Leads to  Great Outcomes

The Levels of Treatment

• Level 0: Assessment & Intervention

• Level 1: Detox

• Level 2: Inpatient/residential treatment

• Level 3: Sober Living, Outpatient, & Aftercare

We Provide a Continuum of Care for Long-Term Sobriety

Our experience in helping men and women overcome addiction for the long-term has led us to create a multi-level continuum of care. The benefits of extending treatment through several months and gradually making the treatment less intensive have been well established. We provide these levels of care in order to facilitate long-term recovery and integration back into a career.

Studies widely recommend a minimum of 3 months of supervised treatment and outcomes drastically improve as the treatment period increases to one year.

Gradually "Stepping Down" in Treatment Intensity

Each level of our greater continuum of care will feature addiction professionals and recovery veterans supporting you and your family with one-on-one counseling, drug screening, and the wide variety of therapeutic processes and activities we discuss below. These levels of care will consist of:

"Meeting You Where You Are" & Treatment Recommendations

It's good to know that there is an extended continuum available when you or a loved one enter treatment, but it can possibly be overwhelming for the person entering treatment to commit to. Don't let this stop you from reaching out to our team. When you contact our intake counselors to get a confidential assessment of your situation and insurance policy etc, we will outline a treatment program that will work for your current outlook and resources. The important thing is to receive professional treatment to get initial sobriety from drugs and/or alcohol. After the person "comes out of the fog" of their physical dependence on the drug, it's much easier to make decisions and get commitments about the best next steps to take.

Our Therapeutic Approach

MAT Integration into Treatment (When Appropriate)

Our clinical staff will use whatever tools are available to assist our client’s recovery and this includes the prescribing and dispensation of drugs to help adjust craving like Suboxone, Sublocade, and Subutex (all brand names for buprenorphine).

Our clinical director will continue existing prescriptions and (where approprate) write a prescription for MAT medications like these. Then, our clinical staff can manage the dispensation of the medication at the assigned times.

It’s very helpful to have all clinical parts of the recovery support team in communication with each other like they are at Present Moments. Our clinical director will be in charge of both the prescribing of the medications, monitoring your progress, and managing your personalized treatment regimen. This way, the treatment is holistic and truly supportive in nature.

Here are some more facets of the treatment program at our San Diego residential rehab program:

Holistic Treatment:

• Yoga, reiki & qigong
• Nutrition & fitness/exercise
• Art & music
• Stress reduction techniques
• Self-knowledge and awareness
• Meditation and reflective process
• Reduce racing thoughts and reoccurring feelings of anger, anxiety, fear etc.

Somatic & Expressive Therapies:

• Relationship between the mind and body
• Body language, posture and expressions
• Recognition and release of physical tension
• Reframe and transform current or past negative experiences

Pharmacogenetic Testing:

• A simple cheek swab can show how your body metabolizes specific medications
• Identify best medications for you and let you personalize your medication therapy based on your genetic profile

12 Step & Fellowship

• Successful for over 70 years
• Prevent temptations and relapse

Securing Long-Term Sobriety with Outpatient Support

Extending sobriety after rehab through participation in an outpatient program makes it possible for the newly sober individual to continue having supervision, support, social integration and a smooth reintegration into society.

Our San Diego outpatient programs (PHP, IOP, OP, and alumni support) are an extension of our residential program. Our entire continuum is CARF accredited for excellence. Clients continue to be supported by the same clinical and holistic team that they have grown comfortable with, removing the need to get to know a new therapist and keeping their feelings of safety and security intact.

In the outpatient programs, clients will dig deeper into their presenting problems, delving into the complex layers and underlying conditions of their substance use disorder. In addition to the education and clinical support, clients will receive a safe outlet to process real life occurrences, identify triggers in their daily routines, and learn coping skills to deal with 'life on life’s' terms.

We utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, Coping Skills training, and a variety of other didactic and process therapies to help individuals who have already finished a formal inpatient rehabilitation program or residential treatment rehab program, are currently sober, and need the continuation of outpatient care.

Each participant is provided the continued clinical outpatient services, care and support that is recommended for after-care. We provide core programming daily with our outpatient therapists and intensive outpatient treatment programs. Our medical director is an addiction physician who oversees medication assisted treatment (MAT) maintenance drugs (like Suboxone and Vivitrol) that are sometimes prescribed for those in recovery – these meds can be a tremendous help in reducing craving, but it is vital that they are under the strict control of a medical professional. Our goal is to help individuals move through the stages of change and move from early recovery, into long-term recovery of living a more productive life, while adhering to personal goals and needs in the recovery process.

Intensive outpatient rehab programs or IOP help during the transition from drug and alcohol rehab back to society and family. The object is to have the social support of individuals sharing recovery with similar circumstances while being supported by drug or alcohol counselors, psychologists, or doctors.

Many times, not everyone requires detox or inpatient rehab to begin their journey. They may simply need the extension of support via groups to extend their sobriety as in intensive outpatient rehab.

Present Moments Recovery’s Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) is for people who require a lower level of care than residential addiction treatment, but still requiring weekly therapy services supporting sobriety. The treatment center is near the beaches of Carlsbad, California, in San Diego County. The program allows clients to be able to participate in daily activities, such as work or school, and then attend treatment either during the day or evening program. Clients participate in group therapy sessions, as well as individual sessions with the assigned counselors. Clients are also provided case management, treatment planning, and discharge and aftercare planning.
