Drug Rehabilitation Programs

There are several approaches used in drug rehabilitation programs currently here are a few more of them:

The Matrix Model is used mostly for stimulant addicts, the Matrix Model incorporates several treatment methods, including relapse prevention, family and group therapies, drug education and self- help participation. The Matrix Model also offers education for family members affected by the addict. However, this treatment method relies most heavily on relationships forged between patient and counselor. Acting as a teacher and coach, counselors educate addicts about issues critical to addiction and relapse, and attempt to raise the addict’s self-esteem, dignity and self- worth through continual encouragement and positive reinforcement of desired behavioral changes. Maintaining a positive relationship is crucial for addict retention.

Drug Rehabilitation Programs for teens

Behavioral Therapy for Adolescents attempts to help young addicts maintain control by avoiding situations associated with drug use, recognizing and changing thought processes, feelings or plans that lead to drug use and enlisting family and friends to help the addict stay away from drugs. Therapeutic activities may include fulfilling specific assignments, rehearsing desired behaviors and recording and reviewing progress made over time. Praises and privileges are consistently given for meeting assigned goals and demonstrating desired behaviors as positive reinforcement.
