Denver Rehabs & Addiction Treatment Programs

Inpatient Options for Care

Denver residents may benefit from an inpatient or residential program if they need around-the-clock support. Inpatient rehabs in Denver have patients living at the facility for the duration of their treatment program. While every treatment program is different, patients will typically participate in several types of group and individual therapies. The length of stay varies but often lasts between 30 and 90 days. These programs are structured and can offer patients the stability and support needed to focus on their recovery. Some patients may transition to an outpatient program to continue their recovery journey with added support.

Outpatient Options for Treatment

With outpatient programs, patients do not live at the facility but still receive regular therapy. These programs can be a step down from an inpatient program or a good starting point for those needing less intensive care.

Outpatient programs can vary significantly in duration and intensity. For example, a less intensive outpatient program may require a patient to attend once per week while a partial hospitalization program may require a patient to attend treatment several days a week while living in a sober living facility with other people in recovery.

Most treatment programs will include individual and group therapy, but some may also offer additional services like family addiction counseling or holistic programming.

Insurance Options

Behavioral health care including substance use disorder treatment is at least partially covered by health insurance. If you are able to find an addiction treatment center in Denver that accepts your insurance provider, your plan may even cover the entirety of the cost. To find which treatment programs are in-network, you can use the insurance filter to narrow down your search. Always check with your insurance to confirm.
