Success through the Syndrome Model of Addiction
We are the only IOP and outpatient drug rehab facility in New York that focuses on the Syndrome Model of Addiction developed by Dr. Howard Shaffer of Cambridge Health Alliance and Harvard University. All of our outpatient treatment protocols are designed to address the many addictive expressions the Syndrome Model addresses.
According to the Syndrome Model, there are three primary focus points in addressing addiction:
- Cravings
- Control, or the loss thereof
- Consequences
Using this methodology, we are better able to identify specific pain points and expressions of addiction from the start with each new client. This is why each of our treatment plans are highly customized to the individual client’s needs, whether for inpatient or outpatient purposes. It all starts with a thorough evaluation of the new client’s psychological and medical history.
Substances We Treat
No matter which substance a person has struggled with in the past, we’re equipped to meet their drug addiction treatment needs in East Hampton. Our intensive outpatient program helps people who have struggled with the following substances:
- Heroin
- Cocaine (both powder and crack)
- Alcohol
- Methamphetamine
- Prescription drugs (opioids, cough medicines, sleep aids, muscle relaxers, antidepressants, etc.)
- Ecstasy (MDMA)
- And More
Dual Diagnosis Treatment Offered
Being that we follow the Syndrome Model of addiction, there’s no question that we must address mental health conditions along with substance abuse issues. This is a form of treatment known as dual diagnosis, and it’s offered in both our outpatient and our inpatient programs.
Some of the most common mental health conditions that intertwine with substance abuse include:
- Anxiety Disorders
- Bipolar Disorder
- Depression
- Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
- Trauma
Our intensive outpatient program even addresses other forms of addiction, such as gambling and shopping. We know that these disorders are usually closely related, and one condition can’t be treated if the others are being ignored.

Is Outpatient treatment right for you?
- You have already completed detox rehabilitation from drugs or alcohol. This is something that is not normally done on an outpatient basis because of the risks and complexity of treatment.
- You can maintain abstinence for a period of time. People who are unable to stay off of drugs or alcohol for a period of time would do better with the structure provided in an inpatient program.
- You have a stable home environment and a strong support network. One of the hardest parts about outpatient treatment is the temptation faced at home or in a social setting. To successfully complete addiction outpatient treatment, it is important to have a support network of non-using friends or family and a sober home environment.
