Prescription drug addiction is a growing concern that affects individuals from all walks of life. Despite being legally prescribed, these medications can lead to dependency and addiction when misused. At Keys Behavioral Health, we provide comprehensive treatment programs designed to help individuals overcome their addiction to prescription drugs and reclaim their lives. Our approach is rooted in compassion, evidence-based practices, and personalized care to support long-term recovery.
Prescription drug addiction can occur when individuals misuse medications such as opioids (like oxycodone and hydrocodone), benzodiazepines (like Xanax and Valium), or stimulants (like Adderall and Ritalin). While these medications are effective when used correctly, misuse can lead to physical dependence, addiction, and serious health consequences. At Keys Behavioral Health, we understand the complexities of prescription drug addiction and provide the specialized care needed to address it.
At Keys Behavioral Health, we offer a tailored approach to treating prescription drug addiction, focusing on the physical, psychological, and emotional aspects of the condition. Our programs are designed to help clients safely withdraw from the substance, understand the root causes of their addiction, and develop healthier coping strategies.
Every client’s journey begins with a thorough assessment conducted by our experienced team. This assessment allows us to understand the specific nature of the prescription drug addiction, any co-occurring mental health issues, and the individual’s unique needs. Based on this assessment, we create a personalized treatment plan tailored to guide the client through their recovery process.
For many prescription drugs, withdrawal can be a challenging and potentially dangerous process. We offer medically supervised detoxification to help clients safely manage withdrawal symptoms. Our medical team provides 24/7 care during this critical phase, ensuring clients' comfort and safety as their bodies adjust to the absence of the drug.
In some cases, Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) may be used to support the recovery process. MAT involves the use of FDA-approved medications that help reduce cravings and withdrawal symptoms, making it easier for clients to focus on their recovery. MAT is always combined with counseling and behavioral therapies to address the underlying causes of addiction.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is a cornerstone of our prescription drug addiction treatment program. CBT helps clients identify and change the negative thought patterns and behaviors associated with their drug use. By developing healthier coping strategies, clients are better equipped to manage triggers and avoid relapse.
Therapy is a vital component of our treatment program. We offer both individual and group therapy sessions led by licensed therapists who specialize in addiction treatment. These sessions provide a safe space for clients to explore the underlying causes of their addiction, work through emotional challenges, and build a supportive community with others in recovery.
Many individuals struggling with prescription drug addiction also experience co-occurring mental health disorders, such as anxiety, depression, or PTSD. At Keys Behavioral Health, we provide integrated dual diagnosis treatment to address both the addiction and any underlying mental health conditions. Treating both simultaneously is essential for achieving long-term recovery.
Prescription drug addiction doesn’t just affect the individual; it impacts the entire family. We offer family therapy and education to help loved ones understand the nature of addiction, improve communication, and support the recovery process. Involving family members in treatment can strengthen relationships and provide a vital support system for the client.
In addition to traditional therapy, we offer a variety of holistic therapies that support overall well-being. These may include mindfulness practices, yoga, art therapy, and other wellness programs that help clients reconnect with themselves and find balance in their lives. These therapies complement traditional treatment approaches and promote a well-rounded recovery.
Recovery from prescription drug addiction is a lifelong journey, and we are committed to supporting our clients every step of the way. Our aftercare planning services ensure that clients have access to ongoing support, whether through continued therapy, support groups, or community resources. We help clients build a strong foundation for a healthy, substance-free future.
