St. George Drug Rehab Center

The Rising Need for St. George Rehab

Reports from the University of Utah have found that the state ranks high in terms of a concerning rise in illicit drug use, with over five percent of residents using illegal drugs and subsequently risking drug overdose deaths.

Throughout St. George, residents have been historically limited in terms of access to treatment, both in-person and online, but now, Skycloud has readily available outpatient programs. 

Why Rehab Matters

If you are struggling with addiction, particularly addiction to opioids, finding a qualified rehab center is essential to your recovery.

Many people mistakenly believe that they can stop their addiction at any time or that they don’t need to rely on professional help and instead can go “cold turkey.”

However, there are essential components to a long-term recovery plan that involve other people. 

For starters, recovery from opioids is best facilitated with the use of FDA-approved medication through a medication-assisted treatment plan, or MAT. Add to that the fact that many people struggle with relapse because of isolation and loneliness. To combat these feelings, group therapy and an opportunity to socialize and build a network through support groups are integral to long-term recovery.

With Skycloud, we ensure that you start your recovery with the right type of medication, even if that is facilitated through online medication management services. We also utilize a broad range of therapy types or modalities best suited to your situation, especially if you are struggling with addiction and unresolved trauma or addiction and a co-occurring mental health disorder like depression. 

Stage of Rehab at Skycloud

At Skycloud, we understand that clients need a flexible program that gives them support and structure, but is still affordable. That is why we offer outpatient programs with in-person and virtual services. 

We know that rehab is a multi-stage process with the ultimate goal of helping each of our clients maintain their sobriety long-term, improve their mental health, and create a new life for themselves.

When you reach out to our clinic for treatment, we provide three main stages that are crucial to your recovery.

Intake

The first stage is our intake process. We work hard to ensure each of our clients gets the help they need, and that starts with a comprehensive intake, around 90 minutes for those who are looking for help, especially for opioid addiction, or have co-occurring disorders. As a clinician-owned and led organization, our goal is to present personalized, mindful, and holistic care to each of our clients. 

That is why first appointments for intake are available within one week of reaching out. That is also why we utilize objective testing (Qbtech) as part of ADHD evaluations, GeneSight Testing, and LGBTQI+ Affirming Care provided by our team of care coordinators. 

Therapy and Medication Management

The second stage is our outpatient program. We provide two types of Outpatient Care:

• Outpatient Psychotherapy
• Outpatient MAT For Opioid Addiction

As part of our outpatient programs, we provide several types of therapy, such as trauma processing therapies, EMDR, DBT, and CBT. If you are struggling with a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder, we can provide care for both, ensuring that you get the medication and the therapy you need. 

Aftercare and Support Groups

As you prepare to finish your outpatient program, we want to make sure that you are connected to local support groups and other resources to find aftercare in your area. Studies indicate that for things like Outpatient MAT for Opioid Addiction, you have a much higher chance of staying clean for several years after completing your treatment if you participate in ongoing support groups or continued outpatient therapy. 

Finding the Right Therapy

If you are struggling with a mental health disorder, it is important that you take the time to find the right therapy. There are many types of therapies, referred to as “modalities,” each of which can be beneficial for different conditions.

At Skycloud, we offer things like:

• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy: This form of therapy helps you catch and challenge negative thoughts that lead to negative emotions and actions, and change them to positive ones.
• Dialectical Behavioral Therapy: This form of therapy can help you manage intense emotions and, from there, build better interpersonal skills.
• Trauma Processing Therapy: This category of therapy can help you understand any unresolved trauma you might have and help process it in a healthy way so that it does not continue to impact your mental well-being for the worse.
• Somatic Therapy: This type of therapy can help you focus on the mind-body connection, and in particular, the role that might play in managing certain mental health symptoms.

Our goal is to help you find the right program and duration based on the mental health disorders with which you are struggling. During your initial intake, we will go over your health history and get a deeper understanding of any co-occurring disorders with which you might be struggling and the severity of your condition. 

Finding the Right Therapist

When you reach out to Skycloud, we take the time to undergo a thorough initial intake. This is to help you find the right type of therapy and, most importantly, connect with the right therapist. With our primary in-person facility in Salt Lake City, we know that other areas of Utah still need access to more comprehensive and qualified therapists, which is why we provide flexible online programs for those in St. George. 

When you first start one of our flexible outpatient psychiatry programs, whether virtual or in-person, you will have a chance to find a therapist that you are comfortable talking with and sharing with.

Talking with your therapist from the beginning can help you determine how they work, whether you are comfortable with them, and whether it’s a good match.
