About ARTS Potomac Street Center

ARTS Potomac Street Center is an Aurora, Colorado substance use clinic operating within Addiction Research and Treatment Services. The program is also affiliated with the University of Colorado School of Medicine's Department of Psychiatry.

The center provides adult outpatient care and medication for people facing drug, alcohol, opioid and co occurring mental health concerns. ARTS delivers trauma informed care that focuses on the whole person rather than substance use alone.

Medication Assisted Treatment for Recovery

I like that this center focuses on combining traditional methadone treatment with office based buprenorphine care at a single location.

It also offers naltrexone, Vivitrol and Antabuse, backed by a university psychiatry program with over 50 years of substance use treatment experience.

Office based opioid treatment here can include medical evaluation, physical exams, medication prescribing, counseling and urine drug screening.

They want to ensure you're following the program and working on your recovery.

Medication is paired with behavioral therapies like CBT, DBT, the Matrix Model and relapse prevention to address your symptoms and underlying causes that may have led to addiction issues.

Co Occurring and Criminal Justice Care

ARTS also supports trauma survivors and criminal justice clients. I noted that they offer services that emphasize relapse prevention and address the connection among substance use, mental health and behavior.

The team uses proven approaches like Moral Reconation Therapy and DUI education alongside psychiatric support.

Amenities

Art Therapy

Art and music are mediums that connect with our feelings, making them a great recovery tool during addiction treatment. Studies show that combining art/music and drug rehab can have a greater therapeutic impact than drug rehab alone, as you’re able to access parts of your brain and body that you may not have access to during traditional talk therapy. Benefits of art/music therapy include lowering stress and anxiety, promoting healthy neurochemicals, and providing stress relief.

Private Rehab

Private drug rehab provides a comfortable, secure environment that allows you to focus on doing the work to get your life back on track. Benefits include a higher staff-to-client ratio, increased one-on-one time with therapists and healthcare providers, private rooms for clients, and customized forms of therapy.

Private Rooms

In order to maintain a sense of autonomy, many private rehab facilities offer clients the ability to choose their own private rooms. The privacy and personal space ensure that the recovery process is as comfortable as possible.

Metropolitan Area

Addiction treatment in the metro area benefits clients by offering seamless connections from the city, around the state, and those seeking out-of-state treatment. Another benefit of attending a metro area drug rehab is that you’re close to major airports and ground transportation services.

Business Center

Business centers are a preferred amenity in many mental health and addiction recovery facilities and typically feature secure, high-speed internet, computer stations, printers, and related business technologies. Business centers are designed to enable professionals and students to continue to participate in work or school activities without leaving the treatment facility.

Addiction Treatment Programs

Teen & Adolescent Program

Each young adult program in Colorado is unique, but most offer evidence-based treatment methods while focusing on the young-adult stage of life. Common methods include cognitive behavioral therapy, group and individual therapy, family therapy, relapse prevention, and dual diagnosis therapy.

Adult Program

Each adult program in Colorado centers around helping individuals obtain and maintain sobriety. These programs are designed for men and women 18 and older who struggle with addiction. Common treatment methods include one-on-one and group therapy.

Men's Rehab

Men’s rehab in Colorado focuses on the needs of men, including the unique ways they respond to addiction and addiction treatment. These programs allow men to process emotions and connect with other men who have similar struggles.

Women's Rehab

Women’s rehab in Colorado takes a unique approach to treatment that addresses women’s perspectives. Treatment allows women to explore traumas that may have contributed to their substance use disorder and find support among other women.

Opioid Treatment

Opioid rehab in Colorado connects you with the tools and resources you need to overcome opioid use disorder and prevent relapse. Treatment provides structure, accountability, improved health, and community support through a variety of evidence-based methods.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

Cognitive behavioral therapy in Colorado helps a person understand why they act and feel certain ways and how their behavior can lead to substance abuse. This treatment method equips participants with ways to manage these thoughts and feelings and overcome addiction.

Levels of Care

Detox & MAT

Your safely is paramount throughout the process of detox in Colorado. You'll receive round-the-clock care as drugs and alcohol are cleansed from your body. The detox process can vary in length, depending on the type of drug, length of dependency, and other details.

Outpatient Rehab

During outpatient rehab in Colorado, you will attend counseling sessions but live at home while you receive treatment. You will be required to attend groups such as AA or NA to receive additional support. The length of time in outpatient rehab varies by individual, based on their recovery journey.

Aftercare & Alumni Program

A Colorado aftercare rehab program provides continued support such as counseling, career guidance, and budgeting assistance. The goal is to give you the support you need to prevent relapse. Some people remain in aftercare for a few weeks or months, while others continue for a year or more.

Dual Diagnosis & Mental Health

Many people who struggle with a substance abuse disorder also have a mental health disorder. In these situations, Colorado dual diagnosis treatment is essential, for treating both disorders simultaneously.

Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)

As a type of outpatient treatment, partial hospitalization programs (PHPs) in Colorado offer many of the same treatment methods found in inpatient rehabs. However, in a PHP setting, you only stay at the facility during treatment times. That means you can return home after completing required therapies and counseling.

Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)
