Weed Rehab and Recovery: Find Hope, Healing, and Lasting Sobriety at Purpose Healing
Heal From Marijuana Addiction at Purpose Healing Center
Marijuana addiction is a rampant issue in society today. According to the Centers for Disease Control, three in ten people who use cannabis will struggle with cannabis use disorder. When life becomes too unmanageable, you might need help from a weed rehab center.
Marijuana addiction treatment starts with a medical detox and moves to residential and outpatient care. You’ll find individualized care with individual, group, and family therapy sessions, as well as other forms of therapy based on your needs. Your insurance provider may cover the cost of rehab.
Purpose Healing Centers offer help and healing for marijuana addiction at every level of care. We help you to find sustainable ways to approach recovery so that you can live life sober, once and for all. Here is what you need to know about seeking help for your marijuana abuse.
What to Expect from Marijuana Addiction Treatment Centers
Marijuana use disorder impacts your quality of life in far-reaching ways. When you’re ready to face your drug abuse head-on, it’s time to consider enrolling in a marijuana addiction treatment center. At Purpose Healing Centers, we provide you with everything you need to embrace a sober lifestyle.
Here are a few things you can expect from our substance abuse treatment process.

Get Started with a Marijuana Detox
The first step for many people struggling with marijuana abuse is to get the drug out of their system in a controlled setting. If you’ve been using the substance for a while, you may experience some withdrawal symptoms in the early days of sobriety.
Some of the symptoms may be emotional, like irritability, anxiety, and depression. Others are physical, like insomnia, restlessness, nausea, vomiting, headaches, and differences in appetite. While there may not be any quick and easy answers for withdrawal, our professional assistance can make you a bit more comfortable.
We may be able to prescribe something to combat the worst of your symptoms. You can rest easy in the knowledge that you are safe under our watchful eye, 24/7.
Move to Residential Substance Abuse Treatment
After spending a few days in a detox program, the next stage of your marijuana addiction treatment is our inpatient rehab. This allows you to continue the work you started in detox. We’ll be there for you at all times, around the clock. You might have cravings, but you won’t have any opportunity to act on them.
Our clinicians will work with you to find a treatment program tailored to your unique needs with a variety of therapeutic approaches.
This is also a great time for us to assess whether you need any mental health services. According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, one in four adults with a mental illness will also have overlapping substance use disorders. We can help you pinpoint areas for further growth.
Transition to Outpatient Care
Once you graduate from medical detox and inpatient care, you may not be quite ready to return to your old routines and habits without support. Outpatient is a bridge that you can use to maintain connections to your recovery process while practicing your skills in the real world.
You’ll spend your daytime hours at Purpose Healing Center attending group therapy, getting individual care, and checking in with your treatment team. When all of your sessions are over for the day, you get to leave the facility and head home to your family, friends, work, and even your own bed.
Not only is it less restrictive, but it may also be more affordable for someone who needs to self-pay.
Treatment Modalities for Individual Therapy
Marijuana use disorder should never be treated with a cookie-cutter approach. We firmly believe that individualized treatment programs are a necessity for the recovery process. Purpose Healing Centers always create a unique plan that covers all aspects of wellness for our clients.
In general, there are two treatment modalities that might serve you if you abuse marijuana. The first is cognitive behavioral therapy, where you will learn how thoughts and feelings influence your actions. If you can disrupt the cycle early, you might be able to change the outcome and turn from the cannabis sativa plant.
The second is dialectical behavioral therapy, which teaches you new coping strategies to delay your use of marijuana until the urge passes. This is where you will learn mindfulness and meditation, both powerful tools in recovery.
We may also include other modalities like motivational interviewing. It’s common to use several types of therapy at once to target different aspects of your healing.

Group Therapy and Family Therapy Sessions for Increased Support
In addition to individual therapy, there is power in connecting with other people. When you decide to enter into treatment for marijuana, we’ll connect you with support groups of like-minded peers who are on the same path to sobriety that you are.
Our group therapy sessions teach new coping skills and can offer you new ideas and perspectives you hadn’t considered. Some groups may even follow proven frameworks like the Twelve Step method.
However, we also know that your marijuana use has impacted those closest to you, and we want to help you heal those fractured relationships. Family therapy sessions allow everyone to gain clarity, offer their support, and set the stage for healthy communication upon graduation.
Complementary Therapies in Marijuana Rehab
Seeking treatment often means spending lots of time in a therapist’s office. However, Purpose Healing Centers also know that there are other ways to approach the healing of a person’s life. We also offer an array of complementary therapies that enhance what you learn in individual and group therapy.
For example, we might offer yoga therapy or music and art therapy. The National Institute of Health has research that proves that yoga reduces substance use. It employs many of the mindfulness techniques learned in dialectical behavioral therapy coupled with exercise for a powerful approach to healing.
Similarly, art and music therapy are proven to help you improve communication skills through the ability to express yourself in non-verbal ways. This can set you up for success and give you yet another tool to turn to when you leave our treatment facilities.
Evaluating the Marijuana Rehab Cost
Because the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual recognizes cannabis use disorder, you may be surprised at how accessible treatment for marijuana can be. Under the 2010 Affordable Care Act, substance use disorders and mental health services are considered essential health benefits.
Insurance companies must cover them to the same extent as medical or surgical interventions.
While medical detox and long-term recovery can be expensive, insurance might cover more of the cost than you think. Our rehab center aims to make accessing care as simple as possible. To see what your insurance company will cover, call our enrollment team confidentially for verification of benefits.
If you don’t have insurance, you can still seek help and ask about self-pay discounts and payment plans to make ongoing recovery more affordable for you and your family.
Cost of Treatment for Marijuana Use without Insurance
If you don’t have any insurance and self-pay discounts are unavailable, you should be prepared for the sticker price of your marijuana addiction treatment. Medical detox and inpatient rehab will be the most expensive because you’re paying for 24/7 care as well as room and board.
For detox, the price can run anywhere from $5,000 to $8,000, depending on how long you stay in this part of the program and where you attend.
Inpatient rehab is more expensive because it’s longer than your initial detox (which usually lasts for a week or less). Many facilities will start at $5,000 and go up depending on length of stay, medication, and individual needs. This expense is why it helps to have insurance to cover at least part of the cost.
