Substance Abuse Treatment
Substance Abuse Treatment
At Axis Mental Health Services, we provide compassionate, evidence-based substance abuse treatment designed to support individuals on their journey to recovery and lasting sobriety. Our comprehensive approach addresses both the psychological and behavioral aspects of addiction, helping clients build the skills and resilience needed to overcome substance dependence and create fulfilling, drug-free lives.
We understand that addiction is a complex condition that affects every aspect of a person's life. Our treatment programs combine therapeutic interventions, relapse prevention strategies, and holistic support to address the underlying causes of substance abuse. We work with clients to develop personalized recovery plans that incorporate coping skills, lifestyle changes, and ongoing support systems to maintain long-term sobriety and improve overall quality of life.
Our Comprehensive Treatment Approach
Our substance abuse treatment begins with a thorough assessment to understand each client's unique situation, substance use patterns, co-occurring mental health conditions, and personal recovery goals. We then develop an individualized treatment plan that may include individual therapy, group counseling, family education, and aftercare planning. Our evidence-based approaches include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Relapse Prevention techniques.
We recognize that recovery is a journey that requires ongoing support and multiple levels of care. Our treatment continuum includes early intervention, intensive outpatient programs, and maintenance support, all delivered with compassion and respect for each individual's dignity and capacity for change.
Building Foundations for Lasting Recovery
We believe that recovery from substance abuse is not just about stopping substance use, but about building a meaningful life where drugs or alcohol are no longer needed to cope. Our treatment focuses on developing healthy coping mechanisms, repairing relationships, rebuilding self-esteem, and creating a supportive network that sustains recovery long after treatment ends.

What types of substance abuse do you treat?
We provide treatment for various substance use disorders including alcohol, opioids, stimulants, cannabis, prescription medications, and other drugs. Our programs are tailored to address the specific challenges associated with different substances and patterns of use. We also specialize in treating co-occurring mental health conditions that often accompany substance abuse, such as depression, anxiety, and trauma-related disorders.
How long does substance abuse treatment typically last?
Treatment duration varies based on individual needs, severity of addiction, and progress in recovery. Our programs typically range from several weeks to several months, with many clients benefiting from ongoing support through our aftercare services. Research shows that longer engagement in treatment generally leads to better outcomes, so we encourage clients to commit to the full course of recommended care.
Do you offer medically supervised detoxification?
While we primarily focus on psychological and behavioral treatment, we work closely with medical providers who can offer medically supervised detoxification when needed. We conduct thorough assessments to determine if medical detox is necessary and provide appropriate referrals. Our therapeutic services typically begin once clients are medically stable and ready to engage in psychological treatment.
What support do you offer for family members?
We strongly believe in involving family members in the recovery process when appropriate. We offer family education sessions, counseling, and support groups to help family members understand addiction, develop healthy boundaries, and learn how to best support their loved one's recovery. Family involvement can significantly improve treatment outcomes and help repair relationships damaged by substance abuse.
