South Shore Recovery Center Half-Day Treatment Program Explained
Some individuals have less severe symptoms and may not require a high level of care during early recovery from substance abuse. Half-day treatment programs (HDTPs) offer a balanced approach to recovery. Patients receive intensive care while having the freedom to manage daily personal commitments. The half-day structure supports individuals with personal, career, or educational responsibilities interfering with their ability to attend treatment. South Shore Recovery Center offers focused care in a half-day setting to ensure patients stay engaged in addiction recovery without disrupting their personal lives.
Understanding the South Shore Recovery Center's Half-Day Treatment Program
Half-day treatment provides flexibility, intense support, and a welcoming space for individuals to participate in addiction treatment. Clinicians and peers encourage, inspire, and motivate patients during early recovery. Mental health professionals at South Shore Recovery Center help patients achieve progress in their recovery goals by providing focused treatment in a half-day structure. The program combines therapy and support groups tailored to each patient’s needs.
What Is the Half-Day Treatment Program?
A half-day treatment program offers 10 to 15 hours of clinical services each week to patients recovering from substance use disorder (SUD) or dual diagnosis. The program utilizes a combination of group therapy, individual counseling, and peer support to provide a solid foundation for personal healing and growth. Half-day programs are designed for individuals who have the support needed to maintain sobriety and positive mental health during periods between treatment sessions. An HDTP provides lower levels of care and prepares patients for the transition to aftercare services.
Individual vs. Group Therapy Sessions
Patients in half-day programs participate in group and individual therapy. Individual therapy sessions offer one-on-one support and allow people to explore the underlying issues affecting their recovery. Patients collaborate with the therapist to create a tailored treatment plan and drug rehabilitation goals.
Group therapy offers patients a sense of community and a space to share their experiences with others. Patients in group therapy gain insights from individuals who share similar life experiences. Both forms of mental health therapy enhance the effectiveness of rehab treatment.
Integration With Other Treatment Services
Half-day programs give patients additional time to participate in other treatment services to support their sobriety. For example, many patients attend 12-Step or other weekly self-help groups. We encourage patients to take advantage of community-based services that complement our HDTP. The additional support can help individuals more easily overcome challenges during continuing care.
Our clinicians integrate essential treatment services to ensure patients feel comfortable and safe during detox and early recovery. Individuals diagnosed with alcohol use disorder (AUD), opioid use disorder (OUD), or other conditions with more severe withdrawal symptoms may benefit from prescription medication and medication management to address symptoms and side effects of detox.
The Goals and Benefits of Our Half-Day Treatment Program (DTP)
Half-day programs provide support and guidance while allowing people to balance personal or professional responsibilities. HDTPs foster healing and personal growth by targeting the underlying causes of addiction and teaching patients to develop healthier coping skills. Half-day programs ensure patients requiring lower levels of care have access to essential support services.
The benefits of participating in a half-day program include:
- More flexible scheduling and additional accommodations
- Personalized treatment and aftercare planning
- A more seamless transition between treatment and aftercare
The recovery treatment center offers patients a welcoming space to heal from substance abuse. Clinicians model healthy behaviors and help patients develop essential coping skills. Patients can practice the coping techniques they learn in therapy when they return home each day, preparing them to sustain long-term sobriety. Achieving treatment goals through personal growth builds resilience and reduces the risk of relapse by keeping patients engaged with their recovery. Half-day programs are ideal for individuals preparing to transition into continuing care.
Is the HDTP Right for You?
HDTPs are a good fit for individuals who have fewer risk factors associated with relapse. The program prepares patients for aftercare while continuing to provide critical accountability and support. People often report feeling more confident in their ongoing sobriety if they go through a continuum of care, including half-day drug rehabilitation programs.
Assessing Your Personal Needs and Recovery Goals
We assess each patient to determine if HDTP suits their needs and personal preferences. Patients and their loved ones collaborate with the care team to create a comprehensive treatment plan designed to address their concerns and meet their recovery goals. South Shore Recovery Center encourages families to take an active role in family therapy. Often, family members have greater insights into how patients may respond to different programs.
Comparison With Our Other Treatment Options
South Shore Recovery Center offers full-day treatment programs with approximately 30 hours of weekly clinical services. The programs provide patients with psychiatric and medical oversight to address medication management. Clinicians evaluate patients throughout each level of care to determine if they need to move to a different stage of drug rehabilitation. HDTPs are a step up from aftercare and offer patients the most independence.
Therapeutic Modalities and Interventions Offered in Our HDTP
Recovery takes more than simply abstaining from substances. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), “Overcoming an SUD is not as simple as resisting the temptation to take drugs.” Half-day treatment programs may use prescription medication or therapy to help patients manage cravings and other symptoms of SUD. We offer multiple therapeutic modalities and treatment interventions.
Patients participating in half-day treatment programs have access to a wide range of support services, including:
- Self-help groups
- 12-Step facilitation (TSF)
- Medication-assisted treatment (MAT)
- Psychotherapy, including cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT)
- Psychiatry
- Individual and group therapy
- Aftercare planning
We also offer referrals to outside services for individuals with complex co-occurring conditions or other factors impacting recovery.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Is relapse prevention included in the half-day program? And how does it help with substance abuse recovery?
Yes, relapse prevention is included in our half-day program. It is a critical component of addiction treatment designed to help individuals maintain their sobriety and avoid returning to substance abuse. This strategy involves identifying and managing triggers, developing coping skills, and utilizing behavioral therapies. We offer specialized programs that integrate dialectical behavior therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and other evidence-based treatments to support long-term recovery and prevent relapse.
How does therapy during the half-day program support mental health and substance dependence?
Therapy plays a vital role in addressing mental health issues and substance dependence. Through approaches like psychotherapy, family therapy, and dialectical behavior therapy, our programs help patients explore the underlying causes of their conditions, develop effective coping strategies, and enhance their overall well-being. These therapies are tailored to address both substance abuse and co-occurring mental disorders, ensuring comprehensive care and support.
What other types of addiction treatment services does South Shore provide?

How can I determine whether I need an inpatient or outpatient addiction treatment program?

Inpatient treatment provides a structured environment with 24/7 support, which is ideal for individuals with severe addiction or co-occurring mental health disorders.
