Marijuana Rehab Programs Personalized to You
Marijuana may not have the same reputation as drugs like opiates or alcohol, but it is still a highly addictive substance with the potential to profoundly affect your life.
Marijuana addiction is associated with a range of health issues, including long-term cardiac and respiratory risks, negative emotional and behavioral side effects, reduced performance and productivity, and exacerbation of conditions such as anxiety and depression. THC, the active chemical compound in marijuana, can also change how the brain processes and retains information, causing problems with memory, learning, and critical thinking – an issue most concerning for younger users whose brains are still developing.
If using marijuana has negatively impacted your physical health, emotional well-being, and ability to meet the demands of daily life, treatment can help you re-evaluate your use, manage withdrawals and cravings, and find the tools to break free from unhealthy habits.
At SOBA New Jersey, our marijuana addiction treatment specialists integrate high-quality clinical care and case management services with the insight and compassion of professionals who truly care about their work. We’ve been trusted by clients across the region since 2014, and have become known for providing comprehensive, custom-tailored treatment plans that help people when they need it most.
We take a whole-person approach to marijuana recovery and offer services that empower people to regain control. This includes support for:
- Mental and behavioral health
- Physical health, nutrition, and exercise
- Social wellbeing and repairing relationships
- Learning valuable life skills
- Coping with stress
- Managing triggers and cravings
- Avoiding relapse
With access to a team of trained specialists and supportive staff, clients can take control of their recovery journeys and access the resources they need for lasting success.
What Is Marijuana Addiction Treatment Like?
Marijuana addiction treatment focuses on treating both the physical and mental dependence on cannabis, as well as the underlying issues that led to unhealthy habits. This means treating withdrawal symptoms, which research shows are experienced by more than half of chronic cannabis users, and providing counseling and programing tailored to a person’s specific needs.
Marijuana Withdrawal & Detox
The first step in recovering from marijuana addiction is overcoming withdrawal and cravings.
Withdrawing from cannabis doesn’t have the same serious health risks as withdrawing from opiates, but it can still produce a range of uncomfortable symptoms that deter many from maintaining abstinence and furthering their treatment. The DSM-5 recognizes cannabis withdrawal syndrome when three of the following symptoms develop within the first week of cessation:
- Irritability, anger, or aggression
- Anxiety or nervousness
- Insomnia
- Decreased appetite
- Restlessness
- A depressed mood
- Headaches, nausea, vomiting, or stomach pain
At SOBA New Jersey, we help clients safely detox under the care and supervision of medical professionals and experienced addiction treatment specialists. This includes providing a safe and calm environment, luxurious amenities, and counseling as clients progress through their rehab programs.
Marijuana Inpatient & Outpatient Rehab
Our rehab programs are customized to fit the precise needs and circumstances of each client.
We offer inpatient and outpatient rehab, as well as various options for people who need flexibility while they obtain treatment. Clients in our programs may choose to live at home while transitioning through their recovery or may live in our Transitional Sober Living facility to ensure that they have a safe and supportive environment.
Whatever your needs and goals may be for marijuana rehab, SOBA New Jersey has options. This includes:
- Short-term residential rehab, which offers a safe, stable, and medically monitored living environment to begin the recovery journey, typically lasting 30 to 90 days.
- Long-term residential rehab that provides needed structure and a system of support that can vastly improve outcomes. Long-term programs typically last 90-180+ days and consist of detox, therapy, and outpatient services. Long-term rehab is a great choice for those who’ve relapsed in the past, are addicted to multiple substances, or have a dual diagnosis (substance use and mental health disorders).
- Partial care, a program that provides a comprehensive, time-structured level of care while allowing clients to live outside the rehab facility and attend professional support and treatment five days a week. Partial care can be part of a long-term recovery program.
- Outpatient treatment programs, which consists of no more than 9 treatment hours per week and as few as 3 hours across a few days of the week. Our intensive outpatient program (IOP) consists of sessions lasting 9 hours each week, typically spread across three or more days. Outpatient programs offer flexibility, the ability to maintain employment or schooling, and support for those in long-term programs transitioning to daily life.
- Telehealth rehab and recovery, a flexible arrangement for clients to obtain scheduled and effective treatment in an environment of their choosing.
Our programs offer various therapies, psychoeducation courses, group counseling and 12-step meetings, transportation, and case management services. Our specialists also provide dual diagnosis treatment, adventure therapy, family counseling, mental health treatment, and nutrition and wellness services.
How Long Is Marijuana Rehab?
SOBA New Jersey offers both short-term and long-term addiction treatment programs.
- Short-term marijuana rehab lasts no longer than 90 days and may be helpful for those who do not have a co-occurring mental health disorder, multiple addictions, or history of relapse. Patients can detox, receive counseling, and go home after a short period of time.
- Long-term marijuana rehab offers more immersive treatment to those with multiple addictions, dual diagnoses, a history of relapse, or a strong and lasting addiction. Statistically, long-term rehab has the best success rate.
Our specialists are sensitive to the unique needs of every client and can customize treatment plans based on current obligations, work or school, level of needed or desired treatment, and more. Regardless of whether you participate in short- or long-term rehab, we work to cultivate the sense of community and connections that can help you maintain lasting sobriety.
Paying for Marijuana Rehab
While your health and well-being are priceless, we know that there are practical considerations when it comes to obtaining and paying for marijuana addiction treatment.
