Drug & Alcohol Treatment Options

Struggling with substance use or addiction? Our rehab centers can help.

Alcohol

The transition between recreational alcohol use and alcohol dependence can be a subtle one. But if you’re finding that you can’t stop drinking when you want to, you may have alcohol dependence.

Marijuana

Similar to alcohol use, smoking or ingesting marijuana has become normalized as a way to relax or take the edge off. When overused, it can make you feel unable to cope with life without using.

Stimulants

A stimulant is any drug that increases your central nervous system activity. Stimulants are used to heighten attention, hyperactivity, and alertness. Abuse of these drugs can lead to a variety of health problems.

Opioids

Opioids are a class of drugs that include synthetic opioids, pain killers, and the illegal drug heroin. These drugs, including prescription medications, are highly addictive.

Hear From Our Alumni: Adi

For Adi, life before Sandstone Care was a cycle of chronic pain, trauma suppression, and substance use. The severity of their physical and emotional pain eventually led them to struggle with suicidal ideation. That’s when Adi found Sandstone.

At Sandstone Care, we’re proud to be a part of incredible journeys like these that give people hope for a better tomorrow. Watch the video to hear Adi’s amazing story of strength and recovery.

Is Addiction Treatment Right for You?

Making the choice to receive treatment at an addiction rehab can be daunting. You may wonder if your treatment is necessary. Signs you or a loved one may be struggling with substance use include:

  • Neglecting responsibilities or social life
  • Secretive and risk-taking behavior
  • Changes in mood
  • Fatigue
  • Unexplained disappearances of medication
  • Withdrawal symptoms
  • Inability to discontinue using drugs or alcohol

If any of these signs apply to you or a loved one, it may be time to seek help. Our state-accredited and certified treatment center near Boulder offers life-changing programs for teens and young adults looking to break free from addiction and take back their lives.

Our Clients Experience Reduced Levels of Anxiety and Depression

At Sandstone Care, we know disorders like anxiety and depression can have a profound impact on one’s ability to enjoy life. That’s why our treatment programming addresses both addiction and mental health challenges.

In a recent study of people who completed treatment with us, the group reported a 57% decrease in anxiety symptoms. The same group also experienced a 78% decrease in symptoms of depression.

These are life changing numbers for our alumni. And for those experiencing addiction, they can be the difference between relapse and lasting recovery.

You Have Treatment Options

Our alcohol and drug rehab in Boulder, CO offers you Partial-Hospitalization Programs (PHP) and Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) tailored to provide the care you need to heal while living at home. The average length of our young adult and teen substance use treatment is 2-12 weeks, but this can vary from person to person.

In PHP, you will visit the center 3-4 days each week to work with our trained counselors and therapists. Interventions will include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), family and group therapy, medication management, and community activities.

IOP gives you a more flexible schedule without compromising the quality of care. These treatment sessions at our drug and alcohol rehab involve the same methods as our PHP, but are held 1-2 days each week for a few hours at a time.
