What kind of addiction treatment programs do you offer – inpatient, outpatient, or both?
Rubicon Recovery provides a full spectrum of care to meet you where you are in your recovery journey. We offer both inpatient (residential) addiction treatment for those needing intensive, 24/7 support and outpatient addiction treatment programs for individuals who require more flexibility or are stepping down from residential care.

What evidence-based therapies do you incorporate into your addiction treatment programs, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)?
At Rubicon Recovery, we are committed to utilizing evidence-based therapies that have proven effective in addiction recovery. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a cornerstone of our approach, helping clients identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors. We also incorporate Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) for emotional regulation, Motivational Interviewing (MI) to enhance intrinsic motivation, individual therapy, group counseling, and other modalities like psychodrama to provide a well-rounded and effective therapeutic experience.
Is detox part of your addiction treatment program, and is it medically supervised?
Yes, medical detox is an integral part of our addiction treatment program at Rubicon Recovery, when clinically necessary. We provide safe and comfortable medically supervised detox to manage withdrawal symptoms and ensure your well-being as your body clears substances. Our experienced medical team provides 24/7 monitoring and can administer medication to alleviate discomfort and minimize potential risks associated with withdrawal, making detox a more manageable and safer process.

What is the typical daily schedule like in your inpatient addiction treatment program?
While schedules can vary slightly based on individual treatment plans, a typical day in our inpatient addiction treatment program at Rubicon Recovery is structured yet balanced. It includes a mix of individual therapy sessions, group counseling, psychoeducational groups, holistic activities (like yoga or meditation), recreational therapy, meals, and time for personal reflection and rest. Our schedule is designed to be comprehensive, engaging, and conducive to healing in a supportive environment.
Will I have access to individual therapy, group therapy, and family counseling as part of my treatment?
Yes, our comprehensive addiction treatment programs at Rubicon Recovery incorporate a blend of therapy modalities.
