Our Program

The Gulf Coast Rehab program enlists the help of licensed counselors, 12 step program guidelines and individualized treatment plans in order to offer the best possible substance abuse services. The detox is the first step towards physical sobriety, and although Gulf Coast Rehab does not have medical detox facilities onsite, it does have close co-provider relationships with detox centers in the area.

Once a person has undergone the detoxification process, Gulf Coast Rehab's specialists interview each patient individually to find out more about their history and specific circumstances. The intake process helps us understand more about the individual, and it also helps the individual do some self-reflection and helps to slowly produce more mental clarity.

After the initial intake process has been completed, a treatment plan is created to deal with issues and problems related to the individual's background and drug of choice. During this process the patient will participate in individual therapy, group counseling and other sobriety-related activities. If a person has family issues, or issues involving spouses or other loved ones, the Gulf Coast Rehab program also has the resources which with to deal with these issues.

Individuals new in recovery will usually have all the knowledge and resources that they need to stay sober within the first few weeks of treatment, however it is hard to apply what is learned in treatment to the outside world. For this reason, Gulf Coast Rehab has taken special care in designing its aftercare program, which helps patients with the transition back to normal life. During this phase it is suggested that individuals create a support system outside of the treatment facility and get connected with other sober people with knowledge about and a desire for recovery.

By taking these steps individuals are placing insurance on a still fragile possession: sobriety. When individuals have completed their treatment goals and feel confident that they will succeed in recovery then they leave the facility, but are still welcome to keep in contact with their counselors and other Gulf Coast staff.
