Addiction treatment at ARC is a comprehensive clinical process interwoven around onsite medical detoxification procedures that utilize the most progressive medical care available. We provide treatment procedures that address issues of drug addiction such as prescription drug abuse, heroin addiction, alcohol addiction and soma addiction. Our detoxification methods include a history and physical exam designed to create a medication regime specific to the withdrawal symptoms associated with each client’s primary substance of choice. Our detox environment is medically sophisticated and each person undergoing detoxification does so in a dignified, comfortable fashion. Physicians and nurses attend to the hour-to-hour needs of each client during the entire course of the detox period. Our clinical team, which consists of licensed professionals and substance abuse counselors, help each client to cope with the feelings and emotions that are heightened during the withdrawal process. ARC is committed to creating a comfortable, healing detoxification environment which preserves the dignity of each client on detox status. Our primary goal during the detox period is to support each client in obtaining the programs completion, and to further each client’s commitment to their personal treatment goals and objectives. ARC Provides Effective Personalized Addiction Treatment
Once complete detoxification has been reached each client begins to participate in an innovative clinical program centered on individual sessions with their primary clinician. The preliminary treatment plan, which was outfitted to meet the early needs of the detoxing client, now begins to take shape into a personalized treatment plan that takes into account the steps necessary for the client to achieve sustained recovery. To accomplish this objective, the primary clinician and each client determine what measures need to be taken that address the present and future influences on the recovery process. The clinical team then collectively combines their insight and addiction treatment experiences to confront each potential pitfall with a solution oriented plan of action. Each client, outside of individual therapy attends an addiction treatment program that includes a curriculum of addiction education, relapse prevention, substance abuse counseling, 12-step education, experiential groups and outside activities. Additionally, ARC provides relationship counseling and a family program when necessary. When clients have co-occurring conditions, emotional needs or behavioral issues then the personalized treatment plan is tailored to address and meet these individual requirements. In these instances the entire clinical team assembles their collective experience to provide therapeutic resources that support resolution of any additional co-occurring issues. Addiction treatment at ARC is designed to meet the early needs of clients beginning the journey of recovery. The focus of our treatment philosophy is on the underlying issues that have contributed to the addictive process. Understanding how difficult the recovery road can be, each clients personalized treatment plan takes into account future considerations for aftercare that meet each clients continuing recovery needs.

When is an Addiction Treatment Setting Necessary in Order to Achieve Addiction Recovery? It is usually recommended that individuals enroll in an addiction treatment setting when the negative elements present in the individual’s life outweigh the positive elements that can motivate and fuel a sustainable addiction recovery process. Negative elements take two basic forms. These are: - Negative Influences – Negative influences are defined by the circumstances surrounding the individual seeking addiction recovery. These influences – when combined together – impede the likelihood that an individual will achieve and maintain addiction recovery.
- Negative Treatment Factors - Negative treatment factors are defined by the individual characteristics and belief systems that make up the mindset and emotional state of the individual seeking to begin addiction recovery.
Negative Influences Negative influences can take a variety of forms. These types of negative elements usually fall into two categories; these are: - Severe Negative Influences
- Sub-Severe Negative Influences
Examples of Severe Negative Influences: Legal issues Chronic pain Unemployment Relational discord Strong craving cycles Physical dependence Lack of familial support Poor living environment History of chronic relapse Lack of positive peer support Resistance to addiction recovery
Examples of Sub-Severe Negative Influences: Negative Treatment Factors Negative treatment factors also take a variety of forms. These negative elements are also defined in two categories which are; Examples of Severe Negative Treatment Factors: Criminal behaviors Low level of personal integrity Lack of open-mindedness to change Lack of willingness to embrace addiction recovery Co-occurring conditions (Anxiety, depression, trauma, eating disorders, etc.) Previous failed attempts in addiction treatment settings (Inpatient or outpatient)
Examples of Sub-Severe Negative Treatment Factors: Lack of education about addiction Lack of awareness that a problem exists Unwillingness to adopt a spiritual lifestyle Unwillingness to alter aspects of environment Unwillingness to alter the influences of a peer group
So the question of whether or not an individual needs an addiction treatment setting is best answered by reviewing these lists of negative influences and negative treatment factors. If you or your loved one is considering addiction treatment and has any of these negative elements currently present in their life than it is advisable to call 877 415 HOPE for a free comprehensive assessment to determine if addiction treatment is the appropriate next step to take. How Does Addiction Treatment Work? Addiction treatments are not all the same. The question of whether or not it will work is dependent both on the quality and methodologies incorporated by the addiction treatment center and the individual who is undergoing the treatment. The key to helping clients achieive addiction recovery at ARC is by creating individuated treatment planning and utilizing clinical modalities to assist people in understanding the underlying issues that are contributing the pathology of self-destructive behavior. In order to accomplish this the Authentic Recovery Center first focuses on creating an addiction treatment setting where we can: First (Often without the safety of a supportive setting the individual will relapse simply because of the influence of triggers. These triggers, for the most part, can be effectively removed in the best addiction treatment centers by creating an environment that is secure, controlled and absent of the availability of alcohol and other drugs.) Second Determine what personal issues have contributed to the manifestation of the addictive process Determine what steps need to be taken to immediately arrest the addictive process Determine what plan of action needs to be implemented to address any future recovery needs
Without this comprehensive focus on solving the addiction paradigm individuals in our experience will inevitably relapse. Our treatment philosophy is that sustainable addiction recovery requires an addiction treatment process that provides insight into the manifestation of the addictive pathology along with a subsequent therapeutic pathway towards resolution for the issues that are fueling that pathology. What Does Undergoing Addiction Treatment Accomplish? Undergoing addiction treatment helps individuals to become productive, healthy, positive contributors to themselves and to the world around them. More often than not, many people who need addiction treatment actually do want to be sober deep down. So, if that’s the case why do traditional addiction treatment centers often fail in helping clients to achieve this objective? The key to the Authentic Recovery Center’s success in providing effective addiction treatment is our innovative clinical philosophy. Essentially this philosophy is focused on the fact that the best addiction treatment setting will be one where a treatment environment is created in such a way that the individual is not segregated completely from certain aspects of everyday living, but is rather protected specifically from the negative aspects of everyday living that might overwhelm them and cause them to relapse. In essence, if an individual feels like they are staying sober and productive in a more true-to-life scenario like those offered in the ARC addiction treatment center they will also experience the positive results that will motivate them to want to continue to stay sober from alcohol and other drugs. Due to this more progressive clinical philosophy they will be less likely to be shell-shocked once they leave the center because they will have practiced applicable tools for staying clean and sober in this more true-to-life daily routine. Accomplishments mean a lot to people and when individuals are offered the opportunity to complete goals while undergoing addiction treatment they often will begin to feel better about themselves, and certainly better about themselves than they did during active addiction. So a few of the Authentic Recovery Center’s clinical goals in addiction treatment is to create the following: - Individual client goals that when accomplished will show and prove the presence of personal progress.
- Client purpose that when demonstrated will build self-esteem and help to foster a growing personal belief in self.
- Client guidance that when provided will help each client to always face a positive direction and keep the recovery process moving forward.
- Client education that when internalized will help clients to understand how to prevent addiction treatment from ever being necessary again.
- Client support so that they know they are not alone in their journey towards addiction recovery.
- Ongoing client support so that when a client leaves the addiction treatment center they may reach out and be supported during the rocky times that lie ahead.

Addiction treatment at ARC is designed to meet the early needs of clients beginning the journey of recovery.
