Individualized Treatment Placement Services For Mental Health & Addiction Recovery
Without the right guidance and professional support, navigating the challenges of mental health and addiction can feel overwhelming. Many individuals, families, and loved ones often face confusion, fear, and frustration when trying to find an effective treatment program.
At Axiom Interventions and Case Management Services, we understand that a successful journey to recovery must involve compassionate but informed guidance coupled with a treatment plan designed for the unique individual behind the struggle.
Based on the evaluation and initial assessment of the patient, the Axiom Intervention and Case Management Services (AICMS) team devises a plan in accordance with empirically derived data and the American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM) criteria to connect your loved one with the best available treatment services. This can include liaising with treatment facilities, individualized supportive and clinical services, and ongoing discharge plans.
Mental Health Disorders Commonly Linked To Addiction
Substance misuse often goes hand in hand with undiagnosed mental health conditions and requires a treatment approach that addresses both the physiological and physical aspects of the person’s life. Some of these conditions may include:
- Major depressive disorder (MDD) – It is common for these people to turn to alcohol or drugs to numb feelings of sadness, hopelessness, or emptiness.
- Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), social anxiety, or panic disorders can cause individuals to self-medicate to calm nerves or escape anxiety.
- Bipolar disorder – the highs and lows associated with this disorder can drive people to misuse either stimulants or sedatives.
- Borderline personality disorder (BPD) – these individuals have difficulty regulating emotions and behaviors, and this often leads to impulsive substance use.
- Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) – while less common, these individuals may turn to substances as a temporary escape from their intrusive thoughts and rituals.
- Certain phobias
Substance use/abuse is common among individuals who have mental health disorders, as it is often used as a coping mechanism. The following substances are often commonly misused:
- Alcohol – readily available and usually socially accepted, alcohol is a common substance misused by people with anxiety, depression, or post-traumatic stress disorder
- Prescription medications such as benzodiazepines, opioids, and stimulants are often abused by people who have mental health disorders.
- Cannabis, although legal in many areas, marijuana can exacerbate symptoms of anxiety and depression
- Cocaine and amphetamines are very powerful stimulants that are often used to mask depressive symptoms.
Why Individualized Treatment Placement Is The Preferred Option
Individualized treatment placement services recognize the complexity of mental health and substance use disorders. Individualized treatment does not follow a one-size-fits-all approach, but rather looks at the individual as unique, recognizing that no two individuals face the same journey or challenges.
Individualized Treatment Placement Services determine the most suitable path for the individual. They do this by:
- Addressing co-occurring mental health disorders/co-morbidities
- Considering the individual’s life circumstances, family dynamics, previous traumas, work commitments, and medical conditions
- Ensuring that the client feels understood and supported. A client who is understood, supported, and treated as an individual is more likely to remain engaged and complete the treatment.
Who Would Benefit From Individualized Treatment Placement Services?
Understanding that mental health and addiction challenges are complex, Individualized treatment placement services cater to individuals from all walks of life, and are ideal for:
- Adults struggling with co-occurring disorders
- Teens or young adults who have behavioral issues and or struggle with substance abuse
- Families who are seeking assistance to support a loved one who is facing a crisis
- Individuals who are leaving the hospital or detox facilities and who need continued care
- Anyone who feels overwhelmed by the numerous available treatment options.
The treatment plan may include:
- Detox therapy
- Individual counseling
- Group/peer therapy
- Family therapy
- Dual diagnosis treatments for those who have both addiction and mental health challenges
