The First Step: Welcoming You to Broadway Treatment Center
1. Intake and Assessment
The journey begins with a comprehensive intake process designed to understand your unique needs. Our team of professionals at Broadway Treatment Center will conduct physical and psychological assessments to craft a personalized treatment plan tailored to your situation.
During intake, you can expect:
- A review of your medical history
- Discussions about your substance use history
- Mental health evaluations

This step ensures that your treatment addresses your specific circumstances, maximizing your chances of success.
2. Detoxification: Clearing Your System
Detoxification, or detox, is often the first phase of treatment. At Broadway Treatment Center, we offer medically supervised detox programs to ensure safety and comfort as your body eliminates harmful substances.
Symptoms of withdrawal can vary, but our trained staff is equipped to manage them with:

- Emotional encouragement and counseling
Our team will make this critical stage as smooth and manageable as possible, providing a solid foundation for the therapeutic work ahead.
Building the Foundation: Therapy and Counseling
3. Individual Therapy
Once detox is complete, individual therapy sessions will begin. These one-on-one sessions with licensed therapists are a cornerstone of recovery. At Broadway Treatment Center, we focus on addressing the root causes of addiction, such as trauma, stress, or co-occurring mental health disorders.
4. Group Therapy
In addition to individual counseling, group therapy is an essential part of your first 30 days. Sharing experiences in a supportive group setting fosters connection, accountability, and understanding. Broadway Treatment Center provides a safe, judgment-free environment where clients can share their stories and learn from others on a similar journey.
5. Family Counseling
Addiction affects not just the individual but also their loved ones. Broadway Treatment Center offers family therapy to repair relationships, improve communication, and provide loved ones with the tools to support your recovery.
Establishing Healthy Routines
6. Daily Structure and Accountability
Broadway Treatment Center emphasizes the importance of structure in early recovery. Your days will be filled with scheduled activities, including therapy sessions, educational workshops, and wellness activities. This structured approach helps you develop healthy habits while reducing the risk of relapse.
