Alcohol Treatment

Treatment for Addiction to Alcohol

For most people, having a drink is an occasional diversion — a way to relax and unwind. For those suffering from alcohol use disorder, however, it can dominate their every waking moment. Those who suffer from unhealthy alcohol use — one of the most pervasive and powerful addictions affecting society — engage in patterns of uncontrolled drinking that affect almost every other aspect of their lives. They may find themselves consumed by the impulse to have a drink even when it would be inappropriate, such as during work hours. Their drinking may change their behavior in destructive ways, hurting their relationships with family and friends. They may continue drinking even though it causes serious consequences. Some of the most common symptoms of alcohol use disorder include:

Intense cravings for alcohol
Drinking even though the individual is aware of the harm it’s doing
Inability to moderate or control one’s drinking
Skipping family or work obligations in favor of drinking
An extreme tolerance that makes drinking more necessary to feel any effects
Withdrawl symptoms such as shaking or sweating

Types of Treatment We Offer for Alcohol Addiction

We offer a variety of services to meet the needs of those struggling with alcohol addiction. When you or a loved one works with us, we can provide:

Intensive Outpatient Treatment: Our tailored approach to outpatient services provides patients with therapy sessions several times a week. They receive the same professional guidance to help them overcome their struggles, but in a less-supervised manner. This gives them the flexibility to take care of other responsibilities as they go through treatment.
Partial Hospitalization Programs (PHP): Under this framework, patients are immersed in a highly structured environment for a scheduled number of hours each day. This means patients can return home at night. Each patient is assigned a case manager who collaborates on a personalized treatment plan based on his or her unique needs.
Residential or Inpatient Treatment: This is the most intensive and effective form of treatment for those suffering from substance abuse concerns. Resident patients receive 24/7 support from our team of professionals, creating a structured, supportive environment to promote healing without worrying about the outside world intruding.
