Phase I – patients in early recovery will attend 5 treatment sessions each month (2 individual and 3 group therapy sessions).  Patients in Phase I will see the physician weekly and will not receive more than a 1-week prescription of medication. Patients in Phase I will have a urine drug screen weekly to monitor compliance with program requirements.
