What Does Alcohol Rehab Consist Of?

When you find yourself lost in the bottom of the bottle on a consistent basis, it’s time for you to consider attending an alcohol treatment program. Regularly overindulging in alcohol can begin to impact every aspect of your life negatively. Your personal relationships will usually start to fall apart, and you will undoubtedly begin to notice you may not be able to perform tasks at work effectively.

If you are struggling with an addiction to alcohol, the Legacy Healing Center team in South Florida is here to help you. We personalize a treatment plan that will help you work through the demons that are often associated with alcohol addiction.

First, Alcohol Detox

Before you consider attending one of our treatment programs, it’s vital that you first think about going through our alcohol detox program if you are still in active addiction. There are numerous benefits associated with attending detox. Once you decide you are going to overcome your addiction and within hours of the time that you took your last drink, you will begin to experience physical and emotional withdrawal symptoms. These symptoms can range from mild to severe. Considering that you can never tell which category of symptoms you are going to fall into, we recommend you first go through our detox program to ensure you remain under the watchful eyes of our team during these difficult days.

Getting to the Root Cause of Addiction

In the same way there is not a “one size fits all approach” to addiction, there are often numerous causes or events leading a person down the path to addiction in the first place. For example, suppose you suffered from childhood trauma or were a first responder assisting a particularly heartbreaking call. In that case, you may turn to alcohol to help you to process these events.

Overcoming Addiction with Therapy

At Legacy Healing Center in South Florida, we implement a variety of therapeutic techniques to help you overcome your addiction. One of the leading and most effective forms of therapy we use in every treatment plan is group therapy. If you have ever been to a 12-step meeting, you will likely recognize the set up of our group therapy sessions closely resemble that of a 12-step meeting. During these sessions, you and your fellow group members will share and listen to different points of view regarding various topics associated with addiction and recovery.

In some instances, there is an underlying mental illness contributing to your addiction. Our behavioral therapy addresses both your addiction and removes the stigma associated with mental illness. Taking part in this form of treatment will give you the coping tools you need to manage your addiction and your mental illness. This form of therapy goes hand in hand with individual treatment, which allows you to speak to one of our counselors in a unique setting. This type of counseling is helpful when you have experiences you don’t feel comfortable discussing in a group setting. If you ever need to speak to one of our counselors before your scheduled time, just let us know, and we will do everything we can to accommodate.
