Stabilization Programs at Banyan Treatment Centers
The main goal of a stabilization program is to get an individual back on track after a relapse occurs. A general scenario would be if a client is attending a low-level care at another treatment center and relapse has caused them to require stabilization at a higher-level of care facility.
When relapse occurs, the time spent using typically does not warrant a full medical detox. At Banyan Treatment Centers, our Stabilization Program is tailored to these situations. We offer comprehensive levels of care, making us well-equipped to address such occurrences effectively. Our safe and supportive environment allows individuals to explore the underlying factors contributing to their relapse. Patients participate in a shorter, typically 14-day PHP program with a specialized treatment plan focused on preventing future relapses. Upon successful completion as determined by our clinicians, individuals transition back to their previous level of care or treatment program seamlessly.
We take pride in supporting individuals struggling with addiction, guiding them through challenging times, and helping them reclaim their lives. Our stabilization addiction treatment program has enabled many to sustain their recovery journey across various levels of care. The Banyan Treatment Centers Family extends this valuable service to other treatment facilities and providers who may not have access to similar comprehensive care options.
How Common is Relapse?
Relapse is more common than many think; the relapse rates for substance use disorders are 40-60%. This does not mean that a person is definitely going to relapse without question, but it does mean that if you have relapsed, you are not alone. In fact, some view it as a part of the recovery process and should be treated as any other challenge.
Relapse is caused by many different factors. As with any other medical treatment, relapse occurs when the patient stops following the recommended protocol for long-term success. In terms of addiction and alcoholism, this often means skipping meetings or losing touch with the support systems they’ve established after getting sober.

Importance of Stabilization
Relapse can be discouraging to an individual who is actively trying to live in recovery. Our stabilization addiction treatment program is offered to address missteps along the road of recovery. We all make mistakes in life, and one mistake should not unravel all of the work you’ve put in. Relapse should be seen as a bump in the road to recovery and there is always hope to get back on track. Through stabilization treatment, patients will learn how to navigate future challenging situations and how to effectively manage drug cravings.
What Are Some Skills for Preventing Relapse?
Relapse prevention is a crucial aspect of recovery for individuals navigating substance abuse or behavioral addictions. Understanding the skills necessary to prevent relapse plays a pivotal role in sustaining long-term recovery. The profound effects of relapse can have an immense impact on an individual's physical and mental well-being, often leading to feelings of guilt, shame, and discouragement. However, by honing specific skills, individuals can empower themselves to navigate challenges and maintain their commitment to recovery. Effective relapse prevention involves developing a range of skills that address both the internal and external factors contributing to the risk of relapse.
Some key skills to consider include:
- Self-awareness: Recognizing triggers, cravings, and emotional states that may precede relapse is fundamental. Understanding one's vulnerabilities allows for proactive intervention.
- Coping mechanisms: Developing healthy coping mechanisms is essential for managing stress and emotional upheavals without resorting to substances or addictive behaviors.
- Problem-solving: Building problem-solving skills helps individuals navigate life's challenges and setbacks without resorting to old patterns of behavior.
- Communication skills: Open and honest communication with a support network, including friends, family, or a therapist, fosters a strong foundation for ongoing recovery.
- Mindfulness and stress reduction: Practicing mindfulness and stress reduction techniques, such as meditation or yoga, can help individuals stay centered and resilient in the face of life's stressors.
- Building a support network: Establishing a reliable support system is crucial. Connecting with others who understand the challenges of recovery can provide encouragement and accountability.
- Setting boundaries: Learning to set and maintain healthy boundaries is essential for protecting one's recovery and avoiding situations that may increase the risk of relapse.
- Goal-setting: Setting realistic and achievable goals fosters a sense of purpose and direction, contributing to a positive outlook on the recovery journey.
Incorporating these skills into daily life forms a robust foundation for relapse prevention. By continually refining these skills and staying committed to the recovery journey, individuals can build resilience and navigate the complexities of life while effectively learning to prevent relapse. Remember, seeking professional guidance and support is a strength that can significantly enhance the effectiveness of these relapse prevention strategies.
