Treatment Methods and Intensive Care
Every resident begins with a clinical assessment. This helps the team design an individual recovery plan. The center offers a 28 to 30-day inpatient program for structured care. Only 15 residents stay at once, so each person gets close attention.
Medical detoxification is available for patients facing withdrawal. This process is doctor-led through the licensed Ban Khun Morh Clinic. Physicians and nurses monitor the detoxification phase to ensure safety.
The center integrates diverse therapeutic methods into daily recovery routines. Psychologists use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help patients identify and change harmful patterns. For trauma recovery, specialists use EMDR and Brainspotting when clinically appropriate. These techniques help patients process traumatic memories tied to substance use.
Family involvement is a core part of treatment. Sessions occur every two weeks during the residential stay. They use SATIR and TREATNET principles to improve communication and set healthy boundaries.
Outpatient and Transition Support
Outpatient rehabilitation is available for clients who must maintain work or family duties. These individuals typically engage in 10–12 hours of therapy and medical support weekly. This allows for clinical care while the patient remains at home.
A transition program helps residents return to daily life after primary treatment. Clients continue one-to-one counseling with a physician twice a week. The team monitors stress and relapse risks during this phase. Follow-up care includes trigger management and ongoing mental health support.
