Therapy Treatments for AdultsSubstance use issues can affect your ability to enjoy and succeed in life. We use evidence-based therapy treatments to help you get back to being the best version of yourself.





When fighting addiction, talk therapy alone just won’t cut it. You need evidence-based treatment modalities that are proven to help adults just like you overcome dependence on drugs or alcohol.
At our Detox Centers for adults, we provide various in-person psychotherapy options that address the root cause of your substance use. Whether you’ve been holding on to self-esteem issues, managing anxiety disorders, or struggling with other stressors, we’ll teach you key coping skills to help improve your quality of life.
The tools you take from therapy treatments will help you learn healthy emotional regulation and improve your overall wellness, so you no longer need to turn to substance abuse in your daily life. Explore our types of therapy below.
Our evidence-based therapy treatment for adults not only explores and examines substance use — it also address underlying mental health conditions. This ensures you have a greater chance at enjoying a lasting recovery from addiction.
After our comprehensive assessment, we develop an individualized treatment plan to meet your needs. Rather than emphasize why you came to Sandstone Care, we focus on the path forward. We rely on our clinical framework to help you discover your own values and beliefs, strengths, and passions.
MAT is a medical practice that helps you remain substance free when entering treatment and throughout recovery. It involves the use of prescription drugs designed to help ease the withdrawal process, maintain sobriety, and prevent relapse in recovery.
In group therapy sessions, you’ll interact with other adults who have struggled with similar challenges. One of our mental health professionals will lead the group in discussion, exploring topics designed to help everyone find clarity and community. You will build healthy friendships and social skills, work through relationship issues, and see firsthand that you are not alone.
We developed our evidence-based curriculum with the latest available research to address mental illness. It is our goal to reach the root of the substance use or addiction issue. We include the following therapies, assessments, and plans in our programs:
When someone is experiencing both a mental health disorder and a substance use disorder, the two conditions are referred to as co-occurring disorders, or dual diagnoses.
At Sandstone Care, we believe in treating the whole person. That means addressing both substance use and the mental health conditions that commonly occur alongside addiction.
Mental health conditions we treat include:

“Everybody (at Sandstone) really cares about what they’re doing and cares to see everybody get better.”
Navigating the maze of addiction treatment options can feel daunting, but it doesn’t have to be. Listen to the heartfelt story of Robert, a real-life testament to the life-changing impact of our programming at Sandstone Care.
Robert is not a statistic or an abstract success story; he’s a person just like you who has struggled with addiction and mental health and has turned his entire life around through treatment at Sandstone.
Sandstone Care aims to drive positive lasting change in real people. We understand that you have a life, so we offer a more personal experience than you would find anywhere else.
We are age-specific, not gender-specific. We focus on the unique circumstances that teens and young adults face.
We only use treatment interventions that have been scientifically proven to provide consistent, lasting recovery.
You are not a number, that’s why we provide a comfortable setting where your voice can be heard.
No one person is the same, and neither is their recovery journey. Your treatment program will be tailored to your unique needs.
We want clients to get the most out of life, which means doing their best in the classroom or at their job.
Recovery involves the entire family, so we provide support for the whole family system.

You may have felt helpless watching your teen lose the ability to enjoy things like they used to. Something needs to change, but it can seem like everything you try to do to reach them only makes things worse.
In a recent study, patients completed the Patient Health Questionnaire for Anxiety and Depression at the start and end of their treatment. The results showed a significant reduction in psychiatric distress that exceeded the benchmark.
Those who continued, reported greater gains. Psychiatric distress decreased significantly whether patients completed one, two, three, or four episodes of care. Those who continued their treatment journey reported greater overall clinical improvement.
At Sandstone Care, we understand that going into treatment is not something done on a whim. Which is why we track our outcomes closely, so you can feel confident that treatment is truly a step towards a better life.
Evidence-based therapies (EBTs) use treatment modalities that have been proven effective through scientific research. They include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and more.
These modalities provide real, life-changing results that can help you get your life back on track.
Some additional benefits include:
The American Psychological Association created the policies for EBTs using the best research available. Studies have shown that these therapy treatments lead to longer-lasting results.
Since these kinds of treatments are scientifically proven to be more effective, the chances of relapse are less likely, which means less money spent on future treatments.
EBTs require specialized training in the different kinds of therapies, which means you are guaranteed qualified, verified therapists are in charge of your care.
EBTs are safe and proven treatments, so you can feel confident that your recovery is not left up to chance. Your mental health assessments and preferences will determine which EBTs are used in their treatment plans.
