What Is Residential Treatment?

Residential treatment—often called inpatient rehab—is a fully structured level of care in which individuals live onsite at a licensed treatment facility. Throughout your stay, you receive continuous clinical support, medical monitoring, daily therapy, and a predictable routine designed to help stabilize both mind and body.

Clients participate in individual and group therapy, learn relapse-prevention strategies, and receive dual-diagnosis mental health support in a setting free from stress and access to substances.

Residential Treatment vs. Detox, Inpatient Hospital Care, and Outpatient Programs

People use the word “inpatient” in different ways. Here’s the simplest breakdown:

Medical Detox

Stabilization
  • Safe withdrawal support
  • Medical monitoring
  • Short-term start point

PHP

Full-Day Care
  • Structured daytime treatment
  • Return home at night
  • Often after residential

IOP

More Flexible
  • Multiple sessions/week
  • Work/life flexibility
  • Strong step-down option

Outpatient

Ongoing Support
  • 1–2 sessions/week
  • Best with stable supports
  • Maintenance + relapse prevention

Who We Treat

Our residential rehab program helps adults (18+) who are struggling with:

  • Drug or alcohol addiction
  • Repeated relapses
  • Co-occurring mental health conditions (anxiety, depression, trauma, bipolar disorder, etc.)
  • Unsafe or unsupportive home environments
  • Chronic relapse triggers or high-risk living situations
  • Substance use that interferes with daily life, relationships, or responsibilities

Why Choose Residential Treatment?

Residential treatment eliminates many of the barriers that make recovery difficult. By stepping away from triggers, conflict, and high-risk situations, clients receive the structure, accountability, and emotional stability needed to regain control of their lives.

At Southeast Detox, residents benefit from a substance-free environment, continuous medical and behavioral health support, immediate access to therapy, and the development of strong relapse-prevention strategies that set the foundation for long-term sobriety.

Signs You May Need Residential Rehab

Residential treatment may be the right choice if you:

  • Cannot stop drinking or using on your own
  • Have experienced one or multiple relapses
  • Have withdrawal symptoms
  • Have a co-occurring mental health disorder
  • Have tried outpatient treatment without success
  • Don’t have a stable or sober living environment
  • Use substances to cope with stress, trauma, or emotions

If you’re unsure whether you need this level of care, our team can provide a confidential assessment.

How Long Is Residential Treatment?

Most clients remain in residential care from a few weeks to several months. Your length of stay depends on clinical needs, progress, and next-step planning—and our team works with you to determine the most effective plan.

 

Our Evidence-Based Treatment Approach

We use a combination of clinical, medical, and holistic therapies to treat addiction and underlying issues.

Individual Therapy

One-on-one counseling helps clients identify the root causes of addiction and build healthy coping strategies. Our therapists use:

Group Therapy

Group counseling supports connection, accountability, and skill-building—helping reduce isolation and practice relapse-prevention strategies.

Holistic Therapy

Our holistic services help clients heal mentally, physically, and emotionally.

Yoga for Addiction Recovery

Yoga supports:

  • Stress relief
  • Reduced cravings
  • Improved emotional regulation
  • Physical healing
  • Mindfulness and grounding

EMDR Therapy

EMDR can help individuals process trauma and reduce the intensity of triggers that contribute to substance use.

Dual Diagnosis Treatment

Many individuals struggle with both addiction and mental health concerns. Our dual diagnosis program addresses conditions such as anxiety, depression, PTSD, bipolar disorder, mood dysregulation, and trauma-related symptoms—treating both together to support stronger outcomes.

Medical & Psychiatric Support

Clients receive medication management, withdrawal monitoring, regular medical check-ins, and psychiatric evaluations. Our clinical and medical teams collaborate closely to ensure your safety and comfort throughout treatment.

Residential Amenities & Supportive Services

Alongside clinical care, residents may receive case management, discharge planning, coordination with outpatient providers, transportation assistance, and family communication when appropriate.

After Residential Treatment: Your Next Level of Care

Recovery doesn’t end when you leave residential treatment. We help you transition into step-down services such as:

  • Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)
  • Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)
  • Outpatient counseling
  • Sober living referrals
  • Community support groups (NA/AA/SMART)

These programs provide ongoing support while helping you reintegrate into daily life at a pace that feels safe and sustainable.
