Intensive Outpatient Treatments & Modalities

evidence based substance abuse treatment arizona
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a form of psychotherapy that focuses on identifying and restructuring negative thought patterns that influence behavior and emotions. It operates on the principle that changing maladaptive thinking leads to changes in behavior and emotional regulation. CBT is a goal-oriented approach widely used to treat a variety of mental health conditions, including anxiety, depression, and substance use disorders. It teaches individuals coping strategies for dealing with challenging situations.1

Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) is a type of cognitive-behavioral therapy that emphasizes the psychosocial aspects of treatment. Its foundational principle is the synthesis of opposites. Through acceptance and change strategies, DBT aims to help individuals learn to manage emotions, improve relationships, and live more mindfully. DBT is particularly effective for treating personality disorders, such as borderline personality disorder, and conditions involving significant emotional dysregulation.2

Individual therapy (for addiction) involves one-on-one sessions between a client and a therapist, focusing on the underlying issues and behaviors contributing to substance use. It provides a private setting for individuals to explore their emotions, triggers, and past experiences that influence their addiction. This personalized approach enables the development of customized strategies for coping and recovery, making it a fundamental aspect of effective addiction treatment programs.3

The evaluation typically includes detailed interviews, questionnaires, and medical tests to develop a personalized treatment plan. This thorough approach ensures that the treatment not only addresses the addiction but also targets its underlying causes, laying a solid foundation for sustained recovery in our intensive outpatient rehab program.

This facility is different from any other rehab that I have been to. I have had many failed attempts at getting and staying sober since I was 16. Mostly due to a majority of the treatment centers that I had went to not having much help with aftercare. They would get you clean for however long the stay was and then release you with no tools or foundation to build on. Cornerstone immersed me in the 12 step recovery program. The PHP groups were extremely therapeutic for me. They took me to Recovery meetings every day of the week. They have extremely nice houses to go back to while you’re not at the clinic. Most importantly, they set me up with an aftercare plan that put me on a path to success. Before I left they made sure that I was set up with a sober living, a job, and also made sure that I had made good progress in my 12 steps. After I got out I was sent to IOP, and every week they have a navigator who makes sure that you are doing well and helps you with any obstacles you may be facing. All of the staff truly cares about every individual who comes through this place. Unlike a lot of treatment centers, cornerstone is not in it for the money. Thanks to them I have been able to maintain long term sobriety. I am the happiest I have been in my entire life. I will forever have gratitude for cornerstone and to all of the staff that helped me, and continues to help on my recovery journey.

I watched my loved one struggle with an addiction to alcohol for over fifteen years. In 2022 he was at the worse I had ever seen. I suggested a multitude of things to quit, however, I knew that he needed help and was convinced that this was not going to end well. I had seen the program of recovery outlined at Cornerstone and convinced my loved one to make the 1,800-mile drive across the country. It saved his life. I hardly recognize this man today. From hustling me to pay for "just one more night" at a hotel, to having his own apartment in a year is a miracle. Cornerstone provided him a safe place and provided every tool possible including inpatient treatment, A.A., therapy and counseling, IOP and helped with his transition into the mainstream of life. I’ll be forever grateful.

this place saved my life 100%. the whole staff genuinely cared about me and were only trying to help me grow. i have confidence again and goals to achieve. coming from someone who was very suicidal and a bad alcoholic before treatment, i’ve completely done a 180°. i loved my house managers lacey and jazz who were both extremely important to my recovery. my primary therapist Lori was such a sweetheart and i could tell she genuinely cared about my life and wanted to help in any way she could. i feel like i’ve finally found my place in this world and most importantly myself and that’s all thanks to God and Cornerstone.
