Overcoming a drug addiction and/or alcohol addiction takes time, dedication, and professional support. Addiction Advocates’ can refer you to a state-of-the-art and highly effective drug and alcohol rehab in Burntwood (or further afield if you wish) today.

In order to put a drug addiction or alcohol addiction behind you, serious lifestyle changes need to be made as well as severe psychological changes. The drug and alcohol treatment centres that Addiction Advocates addiction services can refer you to will help you realise these changes like no other facilities.

Attempting to defeat drug and/or alcohol addiction without professional assistance, such as that which Addiction Advocates can provide you with, can be near impossible. This is because trained therapists are often needed to help you make the severe emotional and behavioural changes necessary to live a sober life. Serious treatments, such as CBT (cognitive behavioural therapy) and dual-diagnosis therapy, help to undo the neurological damage that long-term addiction does to your brain. Furthermore, medically assisted detox and other such physiological treatments will also be needed to ensure that your body is safely clean of negative substances.

Do not put your recovery into the hands of anyone other than the best, so call Addiction Advocates today on 0800 012 6088 or text HELP to 83222. Our staff will get you set up in the best possible drug and alcohol rehabilitation centre near you in no time, as our admissions process is quick and easy.

Rehab Treats Drug And Alcohol Addiction Effectively And Compassionately

A professional rehabilitation centre provides an individual with the techniques and tools needed to live a life free from drugs and/or alcohol. The highly trained staff who work at the facilities which are on Addiction Advocates’ roster encourage a positive, caring, and healthy environment. This is the perfect environment for you to recovery best in, and is why so many of Addiction Advocates’ associated drug and alcohol rehabs have such a high success rate with treating addiction.

Most of the rehabs that we offer will provide a blend of tried and tested addiction treatment options. This will include the likes of one-to-one therapies, group therapies, and family intervention therapy. Furthermore, you will also have the benefit of round-the-clock medical support throughout the duration of your stay at a residential rehab. This 24/7 medical support will be particularly invaluable when you first arrive at your rehab and are experiencing withdrawal.

 

Treatment Rehab Provides

The best rehabilitation centres will provide you with both physical and psychological treatments/therapies. Most treatment plans will start with a detox treatment at a detox clinic. This involves ensuring that you pass through alcohol withdrawal and/or drug withdrawal safely. A lot of the rehabilitation centres on Addiction Advocates’ roster include detox clinics, and therefore by finding a rehab through our services you can be ensured a safe and healthy detox.

Once your body has been treated and you there are no longer any drug and/or alcohol in your system, the real psychological treatment can begin. This is a complex phase of the rehabilitation process, but one which you will have support for throughout your stay. A lot of addiction specialists will employ a wide array of therapeutic models in order to craft a personalised treatment plan.

A lot of one-to-one therapy sessions will involve psychological analysis and intervention. The most obvious examples of this will be CBT (cognitive behavioural therapy) and DBT (dialectical behavioural therapy) which will help retrain the way your brain considers addiction. Other one-to-one sessions may include the likes of dual-diagnosis treatments, stress management training, grief counselling, or trauma counselling.

Group therapy sessions are also key to long-term recovery. Some rehabs will also implement group sessions that take on a different approach to standard group therapy sessions, including the likes of art therapy, music therapy, drama therapy, and guided meditation. Group sessions help you to establish a support network of people who share the same goal as you, to remain sober.

 

Relapse Prevention And Aftercare

A lot of recovering addicts can be scared about returning back home after a course of treatment at a residential rehab. The worry that you may relapse is perfectly natural; however, over your course of treatment at rehab, you will be prepared for this shift back to reality.

Relapse prevention planning will help you to find healthier outlets when faced with additive triggers back in your everyday life. Also, the rehabs which Addiction Advocates refer you to can have a one-year aftercare programme for you to use whenever you feel overwhelmed. Between your relapse prevention planning and your complimentary one-year aftercare programme, you will be in the perfect place to live a long and sober life.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is medically assisted detox?
Detox is a very dangerous process when attempted through the “cold turkey” method. Withdrawal symptoms have cost many addicts their lives in the past, and so medically assisted detox provides a safer alternative. Medically assisted detoxification involves medical professionals monitoring your withdrawal side effects and prescribing you medication to control these side effects. The medication that you are prescribed will also be dependent upon what substance you are withdrawing from.
What is relapse prevention planning?
Essentially, relapse prevention planning is a method of treatment in which trained therapists prepare you for a life of sobriety post-rehab. During this planning, you will delve deeper into the triggers and reasons for you turning to drugs and alcohol. Following this, you will work towards developing mental and physical techniques which you can turn to whenever you feel that you may be at risk of using them again.

Quite simply, you begin your path to recovery by actually picking up the phone and making contact with us.
