Stonington Institute: Comprehensive Recovery Services

Stonington Institute, located at 75 Swantown Hill Road in North Stonington, CT, offers a dedicated and multifaceted approach to overcoming substance use disorders. Understanding that recovery is a highly personal journey, the Institute focuses on addressing the core issues driving addiction while equipping clients with sustainable coping mechanisms for long-term sobriety. Their professional clinical team utilizes evidence-based therapies combined with holistic practices to treat the mind, body, and spirit.

Personalized Treatment Planning

Upon admission, every client undergoes a thorough assessment to determine their unique needs, history, and co-occurring mental health concerns. This comprehensive evaluation forms the basis of a highly individualized treatment plan. The goal is to move beyond mere cessation of substance use and delve into the underlying psychological factors contributing to dependency, ensuring that the recovery process is robust and deeply rooted.

Integrated Therapeutic Modalities

The Institute employs a variety of proven therapeutic approaches designed to foster lasting change. Clients engage in a rigorous schedule of individual and group counseling sessions, promoting self-awareness and accountability. Family therapy is also strongly encouraged, recognizing the vital role that support systems play in successful recovery. Moreover, Stonington Institute places significant emphasis on preparing clients for life post-treatment.

Key components of the program often include:

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills training
  • Trauma-informed care and processing
  • Relapse prevention workshops
  • Nutritional planning and wellness activities
  • Introduction to 12-Step methodology and community integration

Aftercare and Continued Support

True success in recovery extends far beyond the duration of the residential stay. Stonington Institute ensures a smooth transition by developing detailed, actionable aftercare plans before a client completes the program. This commitment to continuity helps clients navigate the challenges of returning home and reintegrating into their communities with confidence and support. Aftercare services typically include ongoing counseling referrals, connection to alumni networks, and outpatient services to maintain momentum in sobriety.
