Addiction, alcoholism, drug abuse, and co-occurring disorders have an effect on the entire family system. Our treatment center understands this and offers support for family and loved ones throughout the rehabilitation process. Like all the clinical services we offer, the Family Program is included in the initial cost of treatment.
Effective treatment is not just about information. It is also about practice and application. There is only so much one can learn from therapy and groups. Eventually, each person has to apply what they are being taught in order to continue their recovery. In many drug and alcohol rehab centers, there is simply no way to actually practice many of the skills being imparted through the clinical process. For example, if you attend a treatment center on an island, isolated in the mountains, or on a closed campus, there is only so much real life experience available during rehabilitation. In many instances, when people leave these programs they immediately begin to exhibit signs of overwhelm, anxiety, or emotional distress. These are the exact opposite sensations one would hope a person would have after completing a treatment program. At the Authentic Recovery Center our location is a critical element to preventing this common scenario. Each day we take our clients into the community to safely expose them to the rhythms and activities of what will soon be their independent daily routine. Through these exercises our clients can begin to apply the tools and skills necessary to prevent transitional shock or relapse once they leave.
The National Alliance on Mental Illness determined that over half of individuals suffering from addiction and substance abuse have a co-occurring disorder (Dual Diagnosis). This fact is compelling and helps people understand the importance of applying a dual diagnosis treatment philosophy in order to ensure the most effective treatment measures take place. It is also critical to grasp the services necessary to implement a dual diagnosis treatment strategy during rehab.

Offering multiple types of therapy is important because of the fact that each person is unique. For example, not every individual will respond to cognitive-behavioral therapy in a positive way. Some people need a more dialectical-behavioral approach. Having access to appropriately matched types of therapy is a critical aspect of effective dual diagnosis treatment. Without multiple approaches, a program is essentially asking square pegs to fit in round holes.
Clinical services are vitally important to meeting the needs of an individual with dual diagnosis. When people stop using alcohol or drugs, there are often sub-acute and post-acute withdrawal symptoms that can persist for weeks or even months. Medication management is very helpful to create a temporary reprieve from symptoms like sleeplessness, anxiety, or depression. These symptoms are not always directly related to an underlying psychiatric or psychological issue, but they can significantly exasperate these types of issues. Medication management can help people in early recovery begin to reduce extreme mood fluctuations, free-floating anxiety and sleep cycle disturbances. Without medication management support people with dual diagnosis often find treatment unbearable.
Simply by enrolling, people are removed from their patterns of abusive consumption of alcohol, drugs, or prescription medications. This allows psychiatric medicine to play an important role in addressing the emotional, physical, and cognitive symptoms that are present when a person is operating from a place of having a non-chemically altered neurochemistry.
For many people, being under the influence was an attempt to anesthetize uncomfortable or difficult feelings. These feelings, thoughts, and emotions are often related to a co-occurring condition but not all the time. As a physically sober life begins, emotions and thoughts that were pushed down by alcohol, drugs, and prescription medications can begin to surface. In this specific area psychological services are critical. Essentially, they help people to learn how to live sober. Without developing these coping skills recovery for some people is simply intolerable.
There is no other place in the world where there is such a concentration of people who are actively trying to attain long term recovery from addiction or alcoholism. It doesn’t even matter whether a person considering treatment is even interested in the 12-step programs. Just the fact that there is community that is as welcoming as Los Angeles to the newly clean and sober individual shouldn’t be overlooked. The difference between attending treatment in a rural area where there is little of no community support can’t even be compared to the sensation of being surrounded with an entire city of like-minded people who personally understand the struggle. Receiving this sense of welcome is simply a byproduct of entering a drug and alcohol rehab in Los Angeles, California.

Los Angeles has long been central in the discussion about addiction treatment. Every few months another celebrity melts down in the face of a mental or behavioral health problem and a national debate is sparked about the core elements of addiction and rehabilitation. Although on a national level the public interest about these topics tends to ebb and flow with the acute moments of comedy and crisis, locally in Los Angeles the discussion forges forward. So for the clinical professionals in the region, advancements in addiction medicine and treatment are always being applied and considered. Out of celebrity meltdowns, entire modalities of treatment have risen, such as sober companions, private monitoring, and many other specialized treatment techniques. In addition to these components, certain cutting-edge medications such as Suboxone, Vivitrol, and Naloxone, have been explored for the treatment of opiate addiction. All of these breakthroughs have originated in the greater Los Angeles area, and most of them specifically to address some specific regional needs that have translated into a benefit for the national field of addiction treatment. There is simply no question that Los Angeles represents the leading edge in addiction medicine and treatment. Simply by enrolling in a drug rehab in the area, people receive the positive influence of skilled and experienced professionals that are forging the way forward for the rest of the country.
Although not everyone who attends treatment in Los Angeles intends to stay in the area, if they do there are numerous opportunities on both vocational and educational levels to build a foundation of recovery in the region.
