Pico Rivera, CA Drug & Alcohol Rehab Centers

Residential treatment programs allow individuals who have substance misuse disorders the opportunity to gain professional assistance for their addiction. These programs begin with the detoxification process, giving you professional health monitoring while your body rids itself of the chemicals it has become dependent on. These programs require you to stay at the treatment facility and utilize elements such as nutritional meal prepping, exercise, meditation and support systems to provide you with positive response methods for triggers of your addiction.

Partial hospitalization programs have a similar design to that of residential treatment programs. Individuals that struggle with drug and alcohol use disorders gain professional assistance to help them lead a healthier lifestyle free of the substances they depend on. Where residential treatment programs require you to stay at the treatment facility, partial hospitalization programs don’t require you to live on the same site as the clinics in which you receive treatment. Instead, you return home after your day in the program. The independence allows individuals to gain control over triggers for their addiction throughout the treatment process.

Outpatient treatment programs utilize a combination individual and group therapy to address the needs of individuals that have substance misuse disorders. These treatment programs are even more liberal than PHPs and allow you to maintain regular daily schedules for work, education and family responsibilities. You schedule specific times to check in throughout the week rather than spend the majority of your day at the facility. The structure of outpatient treatment programs requires you handle the triggers of addiction on your own because you not removed from the environments in which you began your substance misuse. Outpatient programs are great for people whose addictions are less severe or for people who have gone through an inpatient program or PHP.

Alcoholics Anonymous, better known as AA, is a 12-step program for anyone with a history of alcohol substance misuse. Anyone who wants to join can attend a meeting. There is no pressure to participate, as everything is voluntary. The setting is non-judgmental and non-discriminatory, giving you a place where others will hear and respect you. In addition, AA offers a sponsorship component, where you can choose a sponsor. Sponsors are people who have finished the 12-step program. Each acts as a resource and mentor as you move through the program. As well, if you ever find yourself in a time of need, sponsors are a phone call away to keep you from possible relapse. AA has helped countless people all across the world. If you would like help maintaining your sobriety, attend a local meeting today.

SMART Recovery is a different approach to recovery than AA or NA. Rather than depending on a 12-step program or spirituality, SMART teaches principles in a scientific framework. Programs rely on the latest scientific discoveries, maintaining a cutting-edge approach. SMART teaches people how to think critically and approach problems analytically. It teaches tools such as measuring a decision’s cost-effectiveness, helping people understand for themselves the pros and cons of maintaining their sobriety. You can attend meetings in-person or online.
