Types of Treatment Available

Residents of Smithtown have access to a full spectrum of addiction treatment services:

Inpatient Rehab (Residential Treatment)

Inpatient rehab provides 24/7 care in a structured residential setting. Clients live at the treatment facility for 30-90 days (or longer) and receive intensive therapy, medical supervision, and support. This level of care is ideal for severe addictions, co-occurring mental health disorders, or situations where a safe, substance-free environment is essential for recovery.

Outpatient Treatment

Outpatient programs allow clients to live at home while attending treatment sessions several times per week. This flexible option works well for individuals with work or family obligations, those transitioning from inpatient care, or people with less severe addictions. Outpatient treatment includes individual therapy, group counseling, and educational sessions.

Medical Detox

Medical detoxification provides supervised withdrawal management with 24/7 medical care. Physicians and nurses monitor vital signs, administer medications to ease withdrawal symptoms, and ensure safety during the detox process. Medical detox is often the first step before entering residential or outpatient treatment.

Partial Hospitalization Programs (PHP)

PHP offers intensive treatment (typically 5-6 hours per day, 5-7 days per week) while allowing clients to return home each evening. This level of care bridges the gap between inpatient and outpatient treatment, providing structured support for those who need more than standard outpatient care but don't require 24/7 supervision.

Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP)

IOP provides structured treatment for 9-12 hours per week, typically in 3-hour sessions several days per week. This option allows clients to maintain work, school, or family responsibilities while receiving comprehensive addiction treatment including therapy, counseling, and relapse prevention education.

Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT)

MAT combines FDA-approved medications (such as methadone, buprenorphine, or naltrexone) with counseling and behavioral therapies. This evidence-based approach is particularly effective for opioid and alcohol addiction, reducing cravings and withdrawal symptoms while supporting long-term recovery.

Dual Diagnosis Treatment

Dual diagnosis programs treat co-occurring mental health disorders alongside addiction. Many people struggling with substance use also experience depression, anxiety, PTSD, bipolar disorder, or other mental health conditions. Integrated treatment addresses both issues simultaneously for better outcomes.
