Adolescent IOP

Solutions For Life is providing a substance-abuse treatment group for youth, ages 13 to 17 years old. It is not only adults who can encounter trouble with substance misuse and abuse.

This program offers substance-abuse treatment 3 days a week:

This is an 8-week program and is comprised of 72 contact hours. It is recommended that the youth complete the program within the 8-week period to really gain benefit. This program has a substance-abuse treatment component as well as a mental health section.

Participants can be a client of other providers in the community and still participate in this program. However, in order to attend, they do have to enroll as a client with this agency and have an Adolescent Addiction Severity Index (ASI) completed. Appropriate information authorized by signed releases will allow program information to be shared with other treatment providers. All services are provided according to a treatment plan that is mutually agreed upon by the client and the therapist.

All services are charged on a discounted sliding fee schedule, depending upon income and resources. SFL will bill Medicaid and private insurance at the full rate. The fee for the Adolescent ASI is $100.

The substance-abuse component covers the following:

• Addiction
• Relapse prevention
• Triggers for use
• Cravings
• Effects of substance use on the body
• Effects of substance use on the brain
• Family influence on addition
• Social influences on use and addiction

The mental health section deals with individual factors:

• Self esteem
• Personal boundaries
• RElationships
• Decision Making
• Coping skills
• Addictive behaviors
• Bullying
• Angermanagement
• Self harm/mutiliation
