Online Outpatient Addiction Treatment in Montana

Montana faces a significant substance abuse crisis, with approximately 300,000 residents struggling with alcohol & drug abuse. The state experiences over 4,300 overdose deaths annually, with opioids accounting for up to 83% of these fatalities. Young adults are particularly vulnerable, with 1.6% suffering from opioid use disorder and 5% experiencing marijuana use disorder.

Given these challenges, accessible substance abuse treatment is crucial for Montana residents. That’s why Eleanor Health is committed to making quality, evidence-based care accessible to all Montanans through our virtual treatment platform. Our comprehensive approach combines medication, therapy, and support services to help prevent overdoses, support long-term recovery, and address the rising addiction rates across the state. Through Eleanor Health’s evidence-based treatment program, individuals can receive the personalized care they need to overcome addiction and rebuild their lives.

Mental health treatment is a critical need in Montana, where approximately 2.35 million adults (1 in 5) experience mental health conditions annually, including 591,000 who face serious mental illness. Despite this significant need, only 38.4% of the state’s mental health professional requirements are currently met, with rural areas particularly underserved, having 41% fewer resources than urban centers.

These statistics underscore the urgent need for accessible mental health treatment services across Pennsylvania. At Eleanor Health, we understand that mental health and substance use disorders often go hand in hand. Through our virtual platform, we break down traditional barriers to access, such as provider shortages and geographic limitations, making quality mental health care available to Montanans regardless of their location. Our holistic treatment approach ensures that individuals receive coordinated care for both their mental health and substance use needs, leading to better outcomes and sustained recovery.

Different stages of recovery may require different levels of care. Addiction treatment facilities offer several treatment options to match your specific needs and circumstances:

Inpatient treatment programs provide 24/7 medical care in a hospital setting, which is often necessary for drug and alcohol detox or when more intensive support is needed.

Residential treatment programs provide a structured living environment with comprehensive therapeutic programming for individuals who require around-the-clock support.

As an outpatient treatment provider, Eleanor Health offers flexible care that accommodates your daily life, enabling you to balance work and family commitments while receiving treatment.

While we specialize in outpatient services, we understand everyone’s journey is different. If you need a higher level of care first, we’ll help connect you with trusted providers who can support you through those early stages of recovery.

Outpatient treatment programs offer a range of care levels within a comprehensive continuum of care. Each level provides a different intensity of treatment to match individual needs:

• Partial Hospitalization Programs (PHP) offer the most structured environment, with treatment sessions running several hours per day, multiple days per week.
• Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) provide a balanced approach, typically meeting 2-3 times per week for several hours each session.
• Standard Outpatient services involve regular appointments that work around daily commitments.

Your care team will continuously evaluate your progress and adjust the level of care accordingly. This flexible approach ensures appropriate support at every recovery stage while accommodating work, family, and personal responsibilities.

Your recovery journey deserves a treatment approach that’s as unique as you are. That’s why our multidisciplinary team combines evidence-based treatments with personalized support to help you heal and grow. We offer proven behavioral therapies, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you identify and change unhelpful thought patterns, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) to build emotional regulation skills, and family therapy to strengthen your support system. Combined with Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT), these therapeutic approaches help you develop practical life skills, manage stress, and build a strong foundation for lasting recovery. Through our virtual care in Montana, you’ll have access to both individual therapy sessions and group counseling services, creating a personalized experience in a structured environment.

Research strongly supports the effectiveness of virtual addiction treatment programs. A Yale study found that 67% of virtual therapy participants achieved remission from substance use disorder. These outcomes demonstrate that virtual treatment can be just as effective as traditional in-person care.

Co-occurring mental health conditions happen when someone experiences both a substance use disorder and mental health concerns at the same time. Research suggests that more than 40% of people with a substance use disorder also have a co-occurring disorder. Common examples include:

• Depression or anxiety alongside alcohol abuse
• PTSD combined with substance abuse
• Bipolar disorder with drug abuse
• Attention deficit disorders with substance abuse

Co-occurring disorders often influence each other, which is why treating both simultaneously through our integrated holistic approach leads to better outcomes. Many people find that addressing underlying mental health conditions is a crucial part of their recovery journey.

Our comprehensive approach to opioid addiction treatment combines several evidence-based practices:

• Medication-assisted treatment using FDA-approved medications to manage cravings and withdrawal symptoms

• Mental health support for co-occurring conditions
• Case management to coordinate your care and recovery needs

We understand that recovery from opioid use disorder looks different for everyone. That’s why we create flexible, personalized care plans that evolve with your progress. Our long-term support includes relapse prevention strategies and ongoing connection to our alumni program, ensuring you have the tools and support needed for sustained recovery.

At Eleanor Health, we take a whole-person approach to alcohol addiction recovery. Our comprehensive treatment program includes:

• Evidence-based behavioral health therapies
• Medication management when appropriate
• Individual and group counseling
• Family counseling
• Trauma-informed care
• Case management services
• Music therapy, art therapy, and expressive therapies
• Connection to local recovery community

Our experienced team creates a personalized recovery program that combines these services to address both the physical and emotional aspects of alcohol addiction. We understand that recovery looks different for everyone, which is why we offer flexible programming that adapts to your specific needs while providing consistent support and structure throughout your recovery journey.

Medical detoxification is often a crucial first step in addiction recovery, providing supervised care during withdrawal from drugs or alcohol. Since withdrawal symptoms can be dangerous, clinical staff monitor patients 24/7 and may use FDA-approved medications to manage symptoms safely.

While we don’t provide detox treatment or residential treatments at our facility, our admissions team can help coordinate these services with trusted partners when needed. We work closely with local providers to ensure a smooth transition into our outpatient care once you’re ready.
