Outpatient Treatment for Cocaine Addiction

Cocaine addiction is a powerful and fast-acting stimulant disorder that can quickly lead to physical dependence and psychological harm. What may start as occasional use for energy or confidence can spiral into a compulsive cycle marked by intense cravings, mood swings, and serious health risks.

At Pillars Health Group, we offer compassionate, evidence-based outpatient programs tailored to individuals battling cocaine addiction. Our treatments address both the physical and emotional aspects of recovery, helping clients reclaim control and build a lasting path to wellness.

How We Treat Cocaine Addiction

At Pillars Health Group, we recognize the complex and often underestimated nature of cocaine addiction, and we offer comprehensive, evidence-based treatment programs tailored to meet each individual’s specific needs.

Our care begins with a detailed assessment that examines the individual’s history of cocaine use, any co-occurring mental health conditions, and their personal goals for recovery.

From there, we provide a full continuum of care, including:

Cocaine Detoxification

Although we do not provide residential detox services for cocaine addiction at our facilities, we collaborate with trusted, accredited partners to ensure clients are connected with the appropriate detox resources. After completing detox, individuals can smoothly transition into one of our outpatient treatment programs, where they’ll receive personalized, continuous care and comprehensive support for long-term recovery.

Cocaine Withdrawals

Cocaine withdrawal is primarily psychological and can include symptoms such as depression, fatigue, irritability, anxiety, difficulty concentrating, and intense drug cravings.

These symptoms typically begin within hours to a few days after the last use and can last for several days or even weeks, depending on the severity and duration of use. While not physically life-threatening, the emotional challenges of withdrawal can be powerful and increase the risk of relapse without proper support and care.

Half-Day and Full-Day Outpatient Treatment Programs

Our Full-Day and Half-Day Outpatient Treatment Programs are thoughtfully designed to support individuals through every phase of their recovery from cocaine addiction. For those who thrive in a structured and immersive setting, our Full-Day Outpatient Treatment Program offers intensive therapeutic care five-to-six days per week.

For clients who need a more flexible schedule, our Half-Day Outpatient Treatment Program provides high-quality clinical treatment three-to-five days a week. The Half-Day program is ideal for those looking to balance recovery with work, school, or family life.

If Full-Day or Half-Day options don’t align with an individual’s schedule or recovery goals, we’re committed to creating a fully personalized treatment plan tailored to their unique needs and availability.

All of our cocaine recovery programs feature a wide range of services, including evidence-based therapies, medication support, case management, and peer support, all aimed at fostering long-term recovery and well-being.

Individual Therapy

Individual therapy sessions with our skilled clinicians are a vital component of the recovery process from cocaine addiction. These private, one-on-one sessions provide a safe and supportive environment where clients can examine the root causes of their substance use, identify triggers, build effective coping strategies, and work through any underlying trauma or co-occurring mental health conditions.

We incorporate proven, evidence-based approaches such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing (MI), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) to promote meaningful self-discovery and help clients achieve long-term recovery.

Group Therapy

Our group therapy sessions create a collaborative and encouraging space where individuals recovering from cocaine addiction can openly share their experiences and connect with peers who understand their journey.

These sessions promote honest dialogue, peer support, and a sense of community—all of which strengthen each participant’s commitment to recovery. We integrate evidence-based techniques like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) into the group setting to help build emotional resilience and equip clients with practical tools for maintaining sobriety and navigating life without stimulant use.

Medication Management

For individuals facing co-occurring mental health conditions along with cocaine addiction, medication management can play a crucial role in supporting recovery—helping to stabilize mood, ease anxiety, and manage symptoms that might interfere with the healing process.

Our licensed nurse practitioners offer expert guidance and supervision of all medication-related care, ensuring each client receives safe, personalized, and effective pharmacological support that aligns with their unique needs throughout every stage of treatment.

Case Management

At a cocaine treatment center like Pillars Health Group, case managers are instrumental in helping clients prepare for life beyond treatment. They collaborate with each individual to design customized aftercare plans and connect them with vital community resources such as support groups, sober living arrangements, continued therapy, and wellness programs that reinforce long-term recovery.

Our holistic approach to treating cocaine addiction addresses more than just the physical aspects—it also prioritizes emotional, mental, and social healing. We empower clients to build effective coping skills, strengthen their support systems, and create a fulfilling, drug-free life.

Aftercare and Alumni Programs

Our Aftercare and Alumni Programs act as a supportive, adaptable bridge between structured treatment and everyday living, tailored specifically for individuals recovering from cocaine addiction. These programs offer a steady and encouraging environment where clients can continue to build recovery skills while slowly resuming responsibilities at work, school, or home.

Designed for those stepping into greater independence, our aftercare services provide ongoing connection, motivation, and accountability. Even after formal treatment ends, clients remain an important part of our caring community—one dedicated to lasting recovery and continuous personal development.

Signs and Symptoms of Cocaine Addiction

Cocaine addiction often begins with casual or recreational use, typically in social or party settings. Its powerful stimulant effects—like euphoria, increased energy, and heightened confidence—can lead individuals to use it more frequently or in larger amounts to chase those feelings. Over time, what starts as occasional use can quickly spiral into dependence. Recognizing the early signs and symptoms of cocaine addiction is critical to seeking help before the mental, emotional, and physical consequences become more difficult to manage and reverse.

Common physical signs and symptoms of cocaine addiction include:

  • Dilated pupils and heightened sensitivity to light and sound
  • Nosebleeds or damage to nasal passages (from snorting)
  • Rapid heartbeat or elevated blood pressure
  • Loss of appetite and significant weight loss
  • Restlessness, twitching, or muscle tics
  • Insomnia or irregular sleep patterns
  • Excessive sweating or body temperature fluctuations
  • Frequent runny nose or sniffing

Common behavioral and psychological signs of cocaine addiction include:

  • Intense euphoria followed by agitation or mood swings
  • Anxiety, paranoia, or hallucinations
  • Risk-taking or impulsive behaviors
  • Social withdrawal or relationship issues
  • Using cocaine to cope with stress or emotional lows
  • Financial problems or stealing to support drug use
  • Frequent disappearances or secretive behavior
  • Cravings and inability to cut back despite consequences

As cocaine use becomes more regular and intense, these symptoms can lead to serious health risks, including heart complications, mental health disorders, and damage to social and professional life. Early intervention and a structured, individualized treatment approach are key to breaking the cycle of addiction and restoring long-term health and stability.
