Though JourneyPure does offer medication assistance and management, this makes up a very small portion of their programs. The staff knows that medication may be good at withdrawal management, but in order to provide clients with the best chances at successfully remaining sober long-term, treatment programs need to be comprehensive. This is why they also offer intensive trauma therapies, individual and group therapies, holistic or experiential treatment options, and life planning. When clients graduate from their program, they will be able to participate in the Alumni App which connects JourneyPure’s clients and staff together to ensure that they have support even once the program is finished.
