Men’s Rehab in Akron, OH

Let’s face it, society treats men differently. Men are generally expected to be strong and assertive, independent. But it is impossible to act this way all the time. The moment that men show weakness is the same moment they will be judged. And when the stress becomes too high, that’s sometimes when substance abuse occurs.

Then, of course, when addiction does strike, that lack of programs tailored to meet the individual’s needs can make their recovery many times harder. Many rehabs have an approach that may not particularly help men through some of the unique challenges they face. The one-size-fits-all approach no longer works regarding addiction behaviors, emotional processing, and social dynamics linked to gender differences.

These are specialized programs that should be given an enabling environment where men can feel understood and empowered to confront their struggles.

At Skypoint Recovery, we understand that men have other issues when it comes to addiction and recovery. Our Men’s Rehab in Akron, Ohio, was centered along the needs of men who struggle with substance use. We provide a comfortable setting where men can focus on healing and reclaiming their lives through therapy.

Understanding Addiction in Men

People become addicts for different reasons, which are also related to factors like gender. Nearly 21 million Americans have at least one addiction, and only 10% are receiving treatment. Besides that, drug overdose deaths in the United States related to drugs in the United States since the year 2000 are nearing the 1 million mark-at 700,000.

Men are usually more affected by substance use disorders, and even they can be vulnerable to addiction through societal pressure. Some of the factors may include:

• Cultural Expectations: Society at large can force men into a stoic position, making independently autonomous persons resistant to seeking help in problems related to addiction.
• Risky Behavior: Statistically, men are more prone to taking part in risk-taking behavior, which may further heighten their exposure to substance abuse.
• Co-occurring Disorders: Addiction has ravaged many men whose incidents of mental health problems, like depression and anxiety, have been known to make complex conditions worse in the process of recovery.

Understanding these particularly male-specific challenges is very important and will provide the basis for formulation of effective treatment strategies.

Our Comprehensive Treatment Programs

At Skypoint Recovery, we offer several evidence-based treatments to meet all the needs of men in recovery:

Medical Detoxification

For many, medical detoxification is the first point of contact in their recovery process. This involves the safe management of withdrawal symptoms while ensuring comfort and safety for the individual. Our medical team is available to closely monitor clients while they go through detox in case complications arise.

The symptoms of withdrawal can differ in degrees similar to the substance used-the greater the dependence, the greater the symptoms. Medical experts at Skypoint Recovery are trained in medicines and therapies that lessen discomfort during this important phase.

Inpatient Rehabilitation

Our inpatient rehabilitation program provides a controlled environment in which to focus exclusively on recovery from addiction and any co-occurring mental health disorders. This includes:

• Individual Therapy: The one-on-one sessions undertaken with licensed therapists specializing in men’s health and dual diagnosis treatment help clients explore their emotional challenges and develop ways of coping.
• Group Therapy: Facilitated sessions where clients can share experiences and learn from others facing similar challenges cultivate a sense of community and support.
• Family Therapy: The treatment would involve the members of the family to develop better communication and relation-building skills in the process of recovery.

Outpatient Programs

Our outpatient programs give more support to those ending inpatient treatment or to those needing more flexibility while continuing to attend to daily life.

Intensive Outpatient Program: A structured program allowing for several hours of therapy a week while being in the comfort of your own home.

• PHP (Partial Hospitalization Program): When IOP is not enough, we can provide intensive daily support with you still having a little independence.

Aftercare Support

Like anything else in this world, formal treatment serves merely as a starting point. The need for ongoing support and additional resources is still present for the client. Aftercare services are designed to assist clients in transitioning back into everyday life but with a new outlook on life.

Relapse Prevention Planning: This is important for developing a personal plan in dealing with cravings and triggers. If you want long-term success, this is how you do it.

• Support Groups: Community resources are recommended to our clients and we offer ongoing support to our clients through AA or NA meetings throughout the Akron area.

Role of Therapy in Men’s Rehab

Skypoint Recovery places a huge emphasis on therapy for men’s rehab. Our therapeutic approaches include:

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy – CBT

CBT is an evidence-based practice given that it clearly allows the clients to identify negative thought patterns and behaviors associated with their addiction and mental health problems. This enables them to deal with symptoms more constructively and reduces the risk of relapse.

Motivational Interviewing

It is a client-centered counseling style that elicits the exploration of ambivalence about substance use and mental health challenges to enhance motivation to change. The technique helps clients in taking the responsibility for one’s recovery. That means either success or failure in their life depends on them.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy

DBT is quite effective for those who have difficulty regulating their emotional responses. This is sometimes linked to co-occurring conditions. It integrates cognitive-behavioral techniques with mindfulness practices to help people develop abilities in the management of their most intense emotions.

Building a Supportive Community

One identified benefit deriving from our Men’s Rehab program is an opportunity to interact with people who understand their problem. This forms friendships during group therapy, which engineers an essential sense of belonging with other recovering clients.

Brotherhood Support Groups allow men an avenue to share experiences, challenges, and successes against the social backdrop for safety.

The peer mentorship programs allow clients to be motivated and guided by mentors who have successfully overcome substance abuse.
