The term "addiction" is used in many contexts to describe an obsession, compulsion, or excessive physical dependence or psychological dependence, such as: drug addiction, alcoholism, compulsive overeating, problem gambling, computer addiction, etc.

In medical terminology, addiction is a state in which the body relies on a substance for normal functioning and develops physical dependence, as in drug addiction. When the drug or substance on which someone is dependent is suddenly removed, it will cause withdrawal, a characteristic set of signs and symptoms. Addiction is generally associated with increased drug tolerance. In physiological terms, addiction is not necessarily associated with substance abuse since this form of addiction can result from using medication as prescribed by a doctor.

However, common usage of the term addiction has spread to include psychological dependence. In this context, the term is used in drug addiction and substance abuse problems, but also refers to behaviors that are not generally recognized by the medical community as problems of addiction, such as compulsive overeating.

The term addiction is also sometimes applied to compulsions that are not substance-related, such as problem gambling and computer addiction. In these kinds of common usages, the term addiction is used to describe a recurring compulsion by an individual to engage in some specific activity, despite harmful consequences to the individual's health, mental state or social life.

Adventure Therapy: An experiential and therapeutic approach facilitated by a licensed therapist and certified adventure staff, promoting a non-traditional way of developing a sense of community. The Adventure Therapy component is a means for the clients to focus on and to identify their internal processes regarding their strengths and weaknesses. Clients are given the opportunity to experience this overtly through participation in white water rafting, hiking, back-packing, etc. They learn to have good, healthy and sober fun while gaining an appreciation for the simple things in life. After their adventure experience client’s process and share their experiences in a therapeutic setting, many sharing that they feel a greater self-worth and a spiritual connection. *Adventure Excursions are scheduled once a month (3-5 day excursions).

Alumni Support: Clients are encouraged to stay involved with Decision Point Center through our Alumni Support Group. The Alumni act as role models and mentors for current clients and they support our Alumni Scholarship Fund through service and donations. Our Alumni Scholarship Fund is dedicated to assisting those financially unable to pay for long term residential treatment.

It is well documented and data shows that long term addiction treatment has far better outcomes for those seeking complete recovery from substance abuse. Those who have entered long term treatment of six months to a year have been very successful at maintaining their recovery.

Long term addiction treatment programs were designed by Decision Point Center for people who had completed anywhere from twenty one to sixty days of primary addiction treatment and for a variety reasons require additional residential addiction treatment. Our program is based on individual progress and not a desired length of stay.

Many clients who have completed our program have also willingly entered into our Continuing Care Program of After Care.

Auricular Acupuncture:   An alternative approach, using acupuncture to help with trauma and other mental health resolution. Studies have shown that auricular (ear) acupuncture can reduce symptoms in patients with minor depression, chronic anxiety disorders and general anxiety disorders.

Cognitive Behavioral  Therapy  (CBT):  A  traditional  therapeutic  approach based on the Cognitive Model of Emotional Response. This is the idea that our thoughts  cause our  feelings and behaviors, not external  things,  like people, situations, and events. Clients will learn how to change the way they think in order to feel and behave better regardless of people, places or things.

Continuum of Care: An opportunity for all clients to engage in their on-going process of recovery through continued and progressively less intense treatment. Research indicates the longer one stays involved in treatment, the better the outcomes for sustained recovery. All clients are given the opportunity to stay involved with Decision Point Center upon completion of Phases I, II and
III through case management and monitoring.

Co-Occurring Disorders:
An individual who has both an alcohol or drug problem/addiction and an emotional/psychiatric problem is said to have a co-occurring disorder. To recover fully, the individual needs concurrent treatment for both. Some common emotional/psychiatric problems along with addiction are: depressive disorders, such as depression and bipolar disorder; anxiety disorders, including generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder and other phobias; and other psychiatric disorders, such as schizophrenia and personality disorders.

 

 

EMDR: Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) psychotherapy is a specific treatment developed to treat anxiety, stress and trauma by helping the client process distressing memories. This psychotherapy is only available through an EMDR certified therapist. Essentially this is a process whereby external stimuli of eye movement can facilitate the processing of traumatic memories.
Equine Assisted Psychotherapy (EAP): An experiential therapeutic group approach using the horse to both invoke response from our clients and act as a mirror for their behavior and internal issues. EAP is most commonly associated with the assistance of trauma resolution but is also effective in
helping the client process other on-going therapeutic issues. Clients are not required to have had any prior experience with horses. EAP is based all on ground work and no riding will be involved. They will work with the horses only under the supervision of a certified Equine Therapist and a Licensed Clinical
Therapist, using specific exercises, tasks, and situations. With the supervision of the treatment team, the clients learn more about themselves and others by processing the horse’s response and their own feelings, behaviors, and patterns during this process.

The Family Program: Family members will have an opportunity to experience the therapeutic process clients experience along with education specific to family systems and concerns. They will also participate in a family session with the respective client and the client’s therapist. 

Nutritional  Assessments : These assessments are  completed  for  all  clients  with  a  registered dietician.  Information from this assessment is used to help clients develop, with their therapist, an appropriate holistic care plan.

Ropes/Challenge Courses: An experiential therapeutic approach that is facilitated by our licensed therapists and certified instructors. Our ropes/challenge course consists of high and low elements. Our low ropes course elements are designed to explore group interaction, problem-solving, and leadership; our high ropes course elements and climbing program focuses on personal achievements and the clients are able to confront their personal fears and anxieties. All of our program element outcomes focus on the enhancement of cooperation, decision making, self confidence, positive risk taking, cohesion, trust, self esteem, leadership, goal setting, and teamwork. The outcomes also are parallels with the client’s internal issues, which are then brought back to a traditional group setting for processing.
Social Responsibility and Life Skills: Clients learn to be responsible, ethical and to be proactively involved in attitudes and behaviors that are in the interest of the community, its people, and the environment. The basic life skills they had lacked and subsequently acquire at Decision Point Center help them to achieve this.
Somatic Breath Work: Breath is the essence of life. This work differs from cathartic and holotropic breathwork. The work can be invigorating and fun as well as subtly complex, profound and life-changing. It is based on the natural, innate breath rhythm. By bringing the unconscious breath into focus, the natural breath grows, our cells are charged, and relaxation, ease, and vitality result. This gentle, somatic breathwork focuses on sensing the movement of breath within the body. When the mind and the body become connected through breath, both physical body memories (trauma) and emotional resistance patterns are easily released. Breath is the thread that weaves through all spiritual traditions. It not only transforms the body, but it brings deep joy and inner peace.
Somatic Experiencing: A form of therapy aimed at relieving and resolving the symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and other mental, physical, and spiritual trauma-related health problems by focusing on the client’s perceived body sensations (or somatic experiences). This is done through attempts to promote awareness and release of physical tension that proponents believe remains trapped or stored in the body in the aftermath of trauma. Practitioners of somatic experiencing are often psychotherapists who are certified to practice this therapy.
The Wellness Program: An integral part of Decision Point’s program, the Wellness Program helps generate a healthy balance of the mind, body and spirit, resulting in a feeling of well-being. Our Wellness Program components include daily exercise, yoga, reiki, martial arts, meditative breathwork, sweat lodges, vision quests, quo gong and auricular acupuncture.
12-Step and Spirituality Workshops: Psycho-educational and pragmatic workshops in approach, they offer an open format where clients learn, review, and confront concerns or issues regarding their involvement with 12-Step programs. They also learn the importance of developing spirituality as it relates personally and socially.
