An alcohol addiction can destroy the lives of those addicted. Addiction can affect an individual on three levels; emotional, physical, and mental. Traditional treatment and recovery programs do not assist in a client in all three levels and this leads to relapse. When treating addiction, it is important to find out what caused the addiction to begin with by viewing the psychological need and in most cases it can be traced back to depression. Women who drink alcohol are twice as likely to become addicted as men. When an addiction is recognized, it is important to enter an alternative alcohol rehab program in order to recover.
Alternative Rehab Vs. Traditional Therapies
When a traditional facility is used and an individual relapses, it is time to find an alternative alcohol rehab program that will meet the needs of an individual who is addicted. When these needs are met, the success rate can be as high as 70%, which is one of the highest rates in the United States. The traditional rehab centers have a much higher failure rate then they do success, which is up to 80% because clients are not prepared and can relapse once they enter back into society.
There are other reasons why our methods are more successful and that is due to our alternative alcohol rehab program. Traditional facilities do not look comfortable and relaxing. Our program offers treatment in a home-like setting so clients feel as though they are recovering in an apartment. Detoxification is an unpleasant stage; however it is better when an individual is able to encounter this unpleasant stage while in a comfortable and relaxing apartment room.
Teaching life skills and recovering tools
We also offer our clients what we refer to as recovering tools. These tools offered at our alternative alcohol rehab program cannot be found at traditional treatment centers. It’s important that treatment touches on the fact that a client must accept accountability for their actions. Their addiction has cost them a job, family, friends, or more. They must be held accountable for that even if the alcohol played a factor in all their decisions. A client is taught to accept the responsibility for all their actions.
It’s important that a client realize how their addiction has affected themselves and everyone around them mentally, physically, and emotionally. Time heals all wounds and addictions. Recovery doesn’t happen over night and clients are taught this on the first day. Their addiction developed slowly and over time so it just makes sense that the recovery takes time too. Our alternative alcohol rehab program will address the individual’s needs one day at a time.
