Situated in Charleston, South Carolina, Charleston Center is a comprehensive addiction treatment center that provides a variety of treatments to adults and teenagers. Inpatient treatment, outpatient programs, medically supervised detoxification, intervention services, and aftercare treatments are all offered by the clinic. Charleston Center also provides specific services for youth, young adults, those living with HIV/AIDS, people engaged in the judicial system, and people who co-occur with mental health illnesses and addiction.

Detoxification at Charleston Center is a well watched procedure that is supervised by doctors around-the-clock to guarantee client safety. FDA-approved drugs like Suboxone and methadone may be used to treat withdrawal symptoms and lower the chance of problems. Programs for detoxification usually last two to ten days, depending on the requirements of each person.

The inpatient program at the facility offers a quiet, comfortable setting where patients may concentrate entirely on their rehabilitation. In-depth, trauma-informed psychotherapy with an emphasis on the 12 Steps is the main focus of this program, which also includes individual, group, and family counseling sessions. In order to maintain long-term sobriety, clients also engage in the development of critical life skills including wellness, self-care, coping mechanisms, stress and anger management, and relapse prevention methods.

Charleston Center is dedicated to promoting long-term rehabilitation by providing a comprehensive continuum of treatment that changes to meet the clients’ changing requirements. With day and evening classes available, the outpatient program gives more flexibility. Apart from continuous therapy and the enhancement of their recovery abilities, clients may get supplemental services that aim to ease the process of reintegrating into the community, family, and employment. These services might include referrals for social, mental health, and medical services as well as job counseling, peer coaching, and introduction into the 12 Step program.

Charleston Center is registered with SAMHSA and has received CARF accreditation. The clinic makes therapy accessible to individuals in need by accepting Medicaid, accepting payments in full, and providing financing alternatives.
