Inpatient vs. Outpatient Treatment
While residential and outpatient teen kratom addiction treatment programs have many similarities, there are several differences and those differences can strongly affect the outcome of your child’s experience in treatment and after they return home. Learning what to look for can help you to determine which teen kratom addiction treatment program will best serve your child’s needs.
At Newport Academy, we provide both residential and outpatient kratom teen rehab programs, and we can help you decide which is the better choice for your child.
Similarities Between Inpatient and Outpatient Teen Kratom Addiction Treatment
In both residential and outpatient kratom addiction treatment programs, teens receive a variety of different therapies, including individual therapy, group sessions, experiential therapy and family therapy sessions. Individual therapy gives your teen the opportunity to have a one-on-one session with a teen drug addiction treatment specialist. Here, he or she can explore the personal issues that may have informed their drug abuse and make progress in learning more effective coping mechanisms than kratom abuse or addiction.
Group therapy provides your teen with a chance to make positive connections with peers who are working through the same issues of kratom dependence. Here they can put into practice the communication skills that they theorize about in private and experiential therapy. Open discussions about their experience with drugs, family life and school pressures can help struggling teens realize that others go through the same thing – and sometimes in far worse circumstances – and that there are more ways than one to deal with difficulties.
Family therapy is of huge importance to both residential and outpatient addiction treatment programs. Parents are expected to take an active part in their child’s recovery while also learning how best to help their teen remain drug-free after returning home.
The focus of both inpatient teen kratom rehab and outpatient teen kratom addiction treatment is to help your teen work through issues underlying addiction while also finding new and better ways to deal with stressors and difficult emotions – ways that do not include drug and alcohol abuse and addiction.
Differences Between Inpatient and Outpatient Teen Kratom Addiction Treatment
The major difference between residential and outpatient treatment is the amount of time spent in therapy. Teens taking part in outpatient kratom treatment programs come in for designated therapy sessions a set number of times per week that varies depending upon their stage in treatment; the longer they remain in treatment, the fewer the number of session per week. Ultimately, a long-term maintenance period of one session per week provides your healing teen with ongoing support as he or she maintains sobriety. Throughout the entire program, teens are free to live at home, attend school, have a part-time job, get involved in extracurricular activities and fill their time appropriately while therapy is not in session.
At a residential teen kratom addiction treatment program, teens live on site while attending a wide range of therapies. Academics are included in the program if appropriate, but most of the day is spent taking part in a variety of experiential, family, group and individual therapy sessions more intensively and more often than in an outpatient program.
