Couples Rehab Program for Drug & Alcohol Addiction
Finding recovery together can be an effective way for couples to benefit from treatment, as it affords the chance for both partners to work on themselves and their relationship. If you and your partner are looking for real and lasting change, Oxford Treatment Center’s Couples Track may be right for you.
Couples & Drug or Alcohol Addiction
Relationships where one or both partners struggle with substance misuse or addiction can be very difficult to navigate. Addiction can impact the mental and physical health of each person individually and take a toll on the relationship itself.1
By getting help for drug and alcohol addiction together as a couple, both partners can work through the recovery process, while also addressing the functional issues of their relationship. This can strengthen the connection between partners and lead to sustained recovery.2
Can Couples Go to Drug & Alcohol Rehab Together?
Yes, couples can go to drug and alcohol rehab together. Certain addiction treatment programs—such as Oxford’s Couples Track—are designed to specifically treat each partner’s individual needs while tending to the needs of the relationship.
Going to a couples rehab program with your significant other has been found to have several benefits when compared to typical individual-based treatment. Research shows that couples who participate in behavioral couples therapy experience:2
- Improved relationship functioning.
- Reduced risk of domestic violence.
- Increased happiness in the relationship.
- Lower risk of divorce/separation.
- More abstinence.
Getting into treatment yourself or attempting to help your spouse get treatment can be difficult and may be scary. Knowing you don’t have to go through it alone can ease both your minds as you take on this major milestone in your relationship.
What to Expect in a Couples Addiction Treatment Program
During the couples addiction treatment program at Oxford Treatment Center, you and your significant other will participate in designated couples therapy as well as attend various behavioral therapies and activities individually.
This is done to not only support both your individual needs but allow you to develop new ways of communicating and interacting with each other in recovery.
Our research-based approach to rehab for couples is based on the Couples and Addiction Recovery training developed by The Gottman Institute.3 By participating in our couples rehab program, you will gain the tools you need to:
- Identify addiction and heal from its effects.
- Learn about codependency and how to set appropriate boundaries.
- Strengthen your individual recovery while also supporting your significant others’ recovery.
- Develop recovery for the relationship.
- Improve communication skills and conflict management skills.
During an average day in inpatient rehab at Oxford, each person will spend time in:
- Individual therapy sessions.
- Separate process groups.
- Couples therapy sessions.
- A focus group with other couples to discuss and work through issues relating to relationships and addiction.
You may also participate in some of our additional therapies such as:
- Recreational therapies.

- Yoga and mindfulness.
You and your partner will reside in separate living spaces at our beautiful inpatient rehab facility in Mississippi. The campus is located on over 100 acres of forested land and offers a serene, comfortable environment for healing.
The length of your treatment plan will depend on your individual needs. Some partners may stay in drug and alcohol rehab for couples for a month of rehab while others may stay for long-term addiction treatment. Each person’s length of stay depends on their clinical presentations.
In addition to the couples rehab program, Oxford Treatment Center offers other levels of addiction treatment for individuals. These programs include:
