Secondary Treatment
Secondary Treatment is a Transitional Phase That Begins After Completion of Primary Treatment.
This Interim Form of Treatment
allows clients to continue working closely with a counselor as they address psychological and emotional issues in greater depth and begin to understand the behaviours that lead to addiction.
This stage is fully supportive but somewhat less intense than primary treatment.
It usually lasts one to six months, and is useful for individuals who need help learning to navigate daily life without substances.
As people begin the process of returning to daily routines,
They learn the importance of accountability and responsibility and gradually regain more control of their lives. Secondary treatment usually lasts one to three months.
