Substance use disorders are deadly conditions, and there is a serious need for drug rehab both in New Hampshire and in the United States at large. Despite having high rates of heavy drinking and other substance abuse problems, Portsmouth does not have many drug and alcohol addiction treatment centers. When you pair this with the fact that not all addiction treatment facilities are made equally, it can feel daunting to look for alcohol or drug rehab in Portsmouth.
East Coast Recovery is here to help. Our addiction treatment center proudly serves the Portsmouth, NH, area. We treat all types and levels of substance addiction, as well as co-occurring mental health conditions. When applicable, treating co-occurring mental health disorders like anxiety or depression is known to aid treatment outcomes and quality of life post-rehab.
East Coast Recovery pairs evidence-based treatment for addiction and mental health with compassion. We take a human-centered, personalized approach to helping people overcome addiction. You’ll get a custom treatment plan no matter what program you start with at East Coast Recovery. This means that you’ll have a say in the approaches our therapists use with you.
Before you start treatment, we’ll give you an intake assessment. Our team will then help you decide which of the following programs (PHP vs. IOP) is the right starting point for you. East Coast Recovery’s case managers can help you plan for time off of work or college courses if needed–this can be essential for clients coming from Portsmouth or anyone starting out with a higher level of care, like PHP.Â
The partial hospitalization program (PHP) at East Coast Recovery meets daily throughout the week. Sessions will take up most of the day, lasting for about six hours each, including lunch. We recommend that most clients coming from Portsmouth start with PHP due to the immersive nature of the program. As a PHP client, you’ll participate in a combination of groups, individual therapy sessions, experiential therapies, creative therapies, education sessions, and other activities. The typical time commitment for PHP is about 30 hours per week.
Our intensive outpatient program (IOP) is more flexible than PHP. Rather than attend treatment all day throughout the week, IOP clients at East Coast Recovery participate in therapy and other activities three days per week. Sessions are also shorter. The typical time commitment for IOP is about 10-12 hours per week. You can start your treatment journey with IOP or transition into the program to ease your transition back into daily life after PHP.
Evening IOP is similar to our standard IOP in the sense that it meets a few days per week. However, sessions take place in the evening, which can be beneficial for clients who need to work or tend to other obligations during the day.
If you’re coming to rehab from Portsmouth, you’ll likely want to stay in our sober living home while in treatment. Sober housing has many benefits, such as making the commute to treatment significantly easier and providing clients like you with an added sense of community, structure, and accountability. Staying in sober living during a partial hospitalization or intensive outpatient program means that you’ll live in a substance-free space, but you will not have to stay in a hospital-like setting as you would in a typical inpatient rehab program.Â
For some clients, medication for addiction can be essential alongside therapy. We offer medication-assisted treatment (MAT) for substance use disorders, including alcohol and opioid addiction, for clients who find that it is a helpful part of their overall treatment plan.
Before you leave treatment at East Coast Recovery, we’ll help you make an aftercare plan. We can help you find ongoing therapy, psychiatry, support groups, continued MAT, and other services that support your ongoing recovery. For example, sober living in Portsmouth, NH, or job and education assistance.
Former East Coast Recovery clients also get access to our generous alumni support program, which allows clients to stay connected to each other. Our alumni program offers events, outings, check-in calls, and more.
Likely, not every drug rehab in Portsmouth you find will accept your health insurance plan. Lack of insurance coverage can make addiction treatment costly.
East Coast Recovery accepts nearly all insurance plans so that individuals and families can get the help they need. To verify your insurance coverage for treatment at East Coast Recovery, call us or complete the insurance verification form on our website.
We also offer scholarships regularly and frequently for both our PHP and IOP treatment options, which can help you or your family cover treatment costs. Drug and alcohol rehab should be accessible, and we’re here to help you find solutions.
