Aftercare for Drug Rehab

Completion of your drug detox and rehabilitation treatment program is just the beginning of a successful recovery from drug addiction and alcoholism. The effects of drug abuse can never be permanently erased - there is no cure for addiction. But there is hope. Ongoing support after you leave our treatment facility at The Canyon is a critical component in preventing relapse and maintaining a long, uninterrupted abstinence.

The Canyon is here to support you in your decision to live a life of sobriety through extended stay programs, outpatient treatment, weekend family therapy, and referrals to a 12 Step program and other self-help support groups. Our dedicated staff understands the difficulty of adjusting to a drug-free lifestyle and is here to help you every step of the way.

The Definition of Aftercare for Drug Rehab

Aftercare refers to the period of time directly following your stay in the treatment facility. Helping you get your life back on track is the goal. Case managers and counselors are available to assist you with key life tasks: job training and placement, finding safe living arrangements, self-direction, and emotional healing. The transition back into the world is a critical time in your sobriety: you must readjust and reintegrate yourself, learning to implement the tools you've learned when faced when the same temptations and situations that originally led you to use in the first place. With The Canyon on your side, you don't have to go it alone.

The Purpose of Drug Rehab Aftercare

Being able to function in the day-to-day world with life's continuing pressures can easily become overwhelming. Maintaining regular contact with a counselor helps improve your sense of worth and identity, emotional awareness, coping, problem solving and stress management skills that were introduced during your residential stay. In short, continuing your treatment after you leave rehab sustains the healthy lifestyle and wellness choices you worked so hard to create. At The Canyon, we have a variety of options to help you do that in a way that is most efficient and effective for your lifestyle.

Types of Drug Rehab Aftercare

Depending upon your responsibilities at home and work, you may have different needs for your drug rehab aftercare. Options for aftercare can include:

• Day or evening outpatient counseling
• Weekly check-ins & meetings
• Recovery & relapse prevention groups
• 12-step self-help peer groups
• Halfway houses and sober living homes

A number of these are available through The Canyon. What we can't provide, we can help you find locally for those who visit us from out of state and around the world.
