Substance Abuse Treatment for Both Relationship Partners

The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) notes that couples rehab can be complicated when both partners engage in substance abuse. Their experts have often explained the importance of individualized treatment and couple rehab together.

According to one study cited by SAMHSA, behavioral couples therapy (BCT) helps couples by providing two effective behavioral health services: couples counseling and addiction treatment.

What Happens if Couples Struggling Don’t Attend Couples Rehab and Addiction Therapy?

The behaviors listed in the quiz above are toxic and harmful to both partners. Avoiding treatment and continuing on this destructive path can have many possible adverse outcomes:

  • Increased relapse risk or an inability to maintain sobriety
  • Codependent behaviors
  • Emotional manipulation or guilt trips on the other partner
  • Domestic violence
  • Harm to other family relationships and friends
  • Lack of meeting shared life goals
  • Emotional isolation, which can lead to depression, anxiety, or another mental illness
  • Trauma goes unaddressed

Receiving specialized treatment that encompasses couples treatment and treating addiction can result in improved relationship dynamics and a lifetime of sober living.

Your Insurance Coverage and Mental Health Treatment Centers

Does insurance cover couples rehab? Many wonder if insurance will cover couples’ treatment. When someone has a mental health diagnosis, such as a substance use disorder, treatment is covered. Since Obamacare laws were passed in 2010, mental health coverage must equal that of physical illnesses.

We accept coverage from major group health plans, including TRICARE, BlueCross BlueShield, Cigna, and others. We also accept AHCCCS (Arizona Medicaid), which ensures the most at-risk people have fair access to our treatment programs.

Coverage is reviewed on an individual basis, and can be confirmed by a confidential call to our facilities.

Our admissions team can offer you peace of mind and also can help obtain any needed pre-authorizations (if they are needed) before you arrive at our alcohol and drug rehab center. Contact us today and they’ll be happy to assist you.

Do All Rehab Centers in Arizona Accept Couples?

Unfortunately, couples rehab can be difficult to find. If you are considering couples rehab programs, do careful research (as you are by reading this post). Look for couples rehab centers that support you using BCT.

Many treatment centers provide addiction recovery but do so by treating the partners individually. They do not always address the relationship aspects, which means missing treating codependency, trauma, or other underlying issues.

What to Expect from Couples Behavioral Therapy

Expectation from Couples Behavioral Therapy

Many people who believe they need help understandably don’t know what to expect from the treatment process. They hope to discuss couples rehab with the other partner but are afraid they can’t fully explain their reasons or what getting help would look like.

It’s also worth knowing that couples rehab and addiction treatment is not easy. It takes commitment and hard work from both parties to enjoy long-term success. If one partner is more engaged in the process and the other doesn’t fully participate, the chances of success may diminish.

Here are some key therapies couples struggling with addiction can expect at Changes Healing Center’s program:

Inpatient Treatment or Outpatient Services

Depending on the severity of the situation, some couples may opt for residential care. However, outpatient options are typically the starting point, especially for couples seeking treatment centers for the very first time.

Changes offers both forms of programs and can provide a confidential assessment for both you and your partner and recommend the level of care most appropriate to your needs and goals in seeking treatment.

Individual, Family, and Group Therapy Sessions

Individual Counseling for Couple

Our supportive community provides comprehensive treatment in varied settings to help develop effective coping mechanisms:

  • Individual Therapy: Attending individual counseling allows the client to explore their innermost emotions and understand what triggers their emotional outbursts and addiction issues. It also helps identify any underlying mental health concern that requires dual diagnosis treatment. Methods include cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and dialectal behavioral therapy.
  • Group Therapy: Some therapy occurs within small support groups. Group members work together to provide ongoing support throughout the recovery process. Groups focus on building coping skills to avoid future alcohol or drug abuse. Groups often complete cognitive behavioral therapy exercises, learning to identify and change negative behaviors together.
  • Family Therapy: Couples rehab wouldn’t be complete without addressing the impact of behavior on families, especially children. Restoring strong family bonds is possible after receiving evidence-based therapies.
  • Couples Therapy: Relationship counseling or therapy involves both of the partners. The therapist facilitates honest conversations about their feelings. The emotionally focused therapy can help couples have clear-eyed and productive discussions about their feelings, goals, or next steps as a couple.

Couples may also experience other alternative therapies, such as mindfulness exercises, couples mindfulness meditation workshops, or music therapies.

Medical Detox to Minimize Withdrawal Symptoms

Couple addiction treatment often starts with medical or sub-acute detoxification, depending on the substances being taken. Detox offers a safe setting as your body eliminates all substances of abuse. When undergoing treatment to detox, the brain sends distress signals to the body. These messages, sent once the brain notices a lack of the drug of choice, manifest as withdrawal symptoms.

In a professional drug and alcohol rehabilitation setting, clients receive FDA-approved prescription medications that manage the most uncomfortable symptoms and make withdrawal more tolerable.

Changes offers sub-acute detox on-site, and provides medical detox through relationships with accredited partner facilities in the Phoenix Valley.

Medication-assisted Treatment for Opioid Addiction or Alcohol Abuse

Medication-assisted Treatment for Opioid Addiction

Treating opioid addiction and alcohol can be dangerous and must be done under the guidance of highly qualified addiction treatment centers.

Both opioid and alcohol addiction/rehab often require special medications that help the person step down from the drug of choice, as these substances “scramble” the brain’s signals and cause hazardous symptoms when ceasing use.

Medication Management

This service refers to our clinical team ensuring that all prescriptions are administered correctly and work as intended. Attention to this detail helps prevent adverse interactions, reduce side effects, and help clients feel great again.

Relapse Prevention Strategies

It is critical that both partners work hard to prevent relapse after leaving the alcohol and drug rehab center. Each relationship partner will develop their own aftercare plan, and they’ll develop one that reflects their shared goals as a couple. Taking this comprehensive approach empowers each individual to flourish while reaching their aspirations together.

Changes Healing Center Success Story: Joy and Johnny

A past client couple, ‘Joy’ and ‘Johnny’ came to Changes Healing Center, both struggling with addiction and feeling the pain of their disintegrating relationship. They had fallen in love in high school, got engaged after graduation, and married right after Joy graduated college. By then, Johnny had been working full-time for several years and had amassed a nice financial nest egg. Their future looked bright!

However, the pressures of balancing marriage and career became overwhelming soon after they said, “I do.” Johnny’s demanding job, plus the stress of carrying them financially, led him to start drinking. At first, it was only a beer at the local watering hole with his buddies after work. But it soon became a dangerous mechanism for managing financial stress.

Joy felt abandoned and isolated. She’d been seeking work since graduating college, but her degree was not opening doors to the high-paying job she had imagined. Instead, she had settled for a restaurant job that helped take a little of the financial pain off of her husband. But nothing helped their marriage, even her small but earnest efforts. She started to take painkillers prescribed for a past pinched nerve; she even told her doctor the symptoms had reoccurred to get the pills refilled.

A Holistic Approach to Couples Recovery

Couples Yoga Sessions - Holistic Approach to Couples Recovery

The couple’s once-loving relationship continued to crumble under not only the finances but also the two addictions. They began to argue more often and lost trust in one another. Efforts to communicate usually ended in squabbles. They were trapped in a cycle of substance abuse and painful emotions.

Both agreed they needed help. Their marriage – as well as their well-being – was at stake.

They discovered the outpatient program at Changes Healing Center, a nearby couples rehab that accepted Johnny’s group medical plan. Right away, they agreed they’d found a supportive space that could help them address their addictions and save their marriage. Both attended individual therapy and couples counseling. They even tried a few couples yoga sessions. Much to Joy’s surprise, even Johnny loved trying yoga. More importantly, they learned to communicate again, set healthy boundaries, and support each other in recovery.

By the time they graduated from Changes, both were sober and trusted each other again. The experience they’d shared in recovery became a bond that had equipped them with the right tools to face life’s challenges together.

Today, Johnny still works at the same place but has been promoted to a supervisory job with a salary increase. Joy has found a better job but still seeks a better opportunity. Both attend SMART Recovery meetings once a week to continue working on lasting behavioral changes.
