Alcoholism Treatment Center in Long Beach, CA | Compassionate Recovery Programs in Southern California
Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is one of the most common forms of substance use disorder (SUD). Every year, millions of individuals and families struggle to navigate treatment and ongoing recovery. New Found Life offers alcoholism treatment and support services to individuals in southern California.
Alcohol addiction can affect all areas of a person’s life, from their physical health to interpersonal relationships and financial stability. Treatment programs help clients safely detox, building the foundation for a happier future and lasting sobriety. We offer quality alcohol rehab to individuals living in southern California. Clients learn to effectively manage their condition and become part of the thriving sober community in Long Beach.
Alcoholism impacts thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. People may experience changes in temperament and mood that increase anger or irritability. The behavioral changes caused by alcohol abuse may lead to interpersonal conflict, unhealthy family dynamics, and self-isolation. In addition to the behavioral changes, alcoholism also impacts physical health in various ways. Prolonged alcohol abuse may damage many organs and cause organ failure or cognitive issues. Early intervention and treatment reduce the risk of severe side effects. New Found Life fosters help, hope, and happiness by guiding clients through the treatment process with compassion and empathy.
According to the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA), “Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is a medical condition characterized by an impaired ability to stop or control alcohol use despite adverse social, occupational, or health consequences.” Alcoholism treatment addresses AUD using psychotherapy, peer support, prescription medications, and other treatments.
New Found Life offers detox, residential care, and outpatient programs. Each program focuses on providing clients with tailored treatment and the necessary tools to improve overall wellness. Most clients start with our alcohol detoxification program and gradually transition down to lower levels of care as they become more comfortable managing their condition. Professional alcohol detox offers clients a safe and structured space for overcoming challenges in recovery. The care team supervises and coordinates detox services to ensure treatment consistency.
Some of the evidence-based and holistic therapeutic modalities used at New Found Life include:
New Found Life uses individual and group therapy to help clients heal from the effects of AUD. Group therapy and 12-Step meetings allow clients to share with peers who share similar life experiences.
Treatment programs teach clients the skills they need to increase self-awareness. Our compassionate care team offers guidance and support to families struggling with substance abuse. Clients experiencing AUD benefit from the expertise of our dedicated clinicians and support staff. The programs teach people to build healthier coping mechanisms and make essential lifestyle changes to support lasting abstinence.
A family-centered approach to addiction recovery allows clients to identify and address the root causes of addiction. Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), trauma, family dysfunction, and other factors may play a role in the development of addiction. Addressing these issues in individual or family therapy allows people to heal, set healthy boundaries, and recover from the effects of SUD.
Families support loved ones in rehabilitation by offering compassion, practical and emotional support, and accountability. Often, clients feel more comfortable expressing themselves and exploring various aspects of family relationships under the guidance of a trained therapist or counselor. The experienced care team at New Found Life has decades of combined experience helping families navigate recovery.
Relapse is a reality of addiction recovery for many people. We understand some clients may have a history of relapse. Our programs offer comprehensive relapse prevention to help clients recognize the signs of a potential relapse and avoid falling back into unhealthy behaviors.
Treatment programs address relapse and build resilience by doing the following:
Clients build resilience by gaining a deeper understanding of their condition and finding ways to manage it effectively.
According to the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), “The relapse process often begins long before the individual uses the substance” and “can start with letting go of some of the changes the individual has made in recovery, and reverting back to old patterns.”
Some of the most common relapse triggers include:
Relapse prevention addresses these potential risks using healthy coping mechanisms.
Relapse prevention strategies improve the quality of life for individuals with SUD. Clients are less likely to engage in reckless or self-harming behaviors if they have relapse prevention and crisis management plans to follow during challenging moments in recovery. Ensuring clients understand and prepare for potential setbacks reduces stress and anxiety during continuing care.
Relapse prevention education and planning prepare clients for the realities of long-term sobriety by ensuring they know how to recognize and manage potential triggers. Clients develop essential skills for coping with stressors and triggers, reducing the risk of relapse and improving overall mental health.
Our treatment programs give clients and their loved ones the tools to increase motivation and achieve long-term recovery goals. New Found Life offers aftercare planning and alumni support to ensure clients feel confident transitioning from structured treatment to continuing care. The clinical team assists clients in creating relapse prevention plans and other strategies for managing SUD long-term. Alcohol addiction treatment provides clients with essential life skills and resources.
