We will also offer hope and encouragement to those who are struggling with addiction.

There are many different treatment options available for drug and alcohol addiction. The most important thing is to seek help as soon as possible.

Signs of Addiction

How can you tell if you're addicted to drugs or alcohol? If drug or alcohol use is causing problems in your life, you may have an addiction. You should seek help if drug use is affecting your health, relationships, work/school performance and other aspects of your life.

Here are some signs that you or someone close to you might be

struggling with an addiction:

• They seem distant or withdrawn from friends and family members.
• They are constantly using drugs or alcohol and have trouble controlling their use.
• They've had legal problems as a result of drug or alcohol abuse.
• They frequently deny that there is a problem even when evidence points to addiction.

Individuals may also exhibit some of the following symptoms: changes in appetite or weight, mood swings, difficulty concentrating, sleep disturbances, loss of interest in things that used to be enjoyable, and drug use despite negative consequences.

Addiction Treatment Options

If you are struggling with addiction, it is important to seek help. There are many different treatment options available, and the best option for you will depend on your unique situation. Some common treatment options include inpatient rehab, outpatient rehab, 12-step programs, and therapy. Drug and alcohol addictions are difficult to overcome, but with the help of a professional treatment program, it is possible. There are many different types of programs available so finding the right one for you will depend on your needs, your preferences, and where you are in the recovery process.

Detox

Drug and alcohol detox is the often first step in drug or alcohol treatment. Detox is the process of removing drugs or alcohol from your system. This can be a difficult process. Some people may require medical supervision during detox. Detox programs are available at many drug rehab facilities.

Inpatient Rehab

Inpatient rehab is a type of drug or alcohol treatment program where people stay at the drug rehab facility during treatment. Inpatient drug and alcohol treatment programs offer intensive therapy to help you overcome drug or alcohol addiction and learn how to live a drug-free life. These treatment programs can be expensive and do not allow clients to continue attending school or work.

Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)

Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) offer an alternative to traditional drug and alcohol rehab. IOPs are designed for people who don't need 24/17 residential treatment but still benefit from daily drug and alcohol treatment. Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) can be a great option if you're struggling with drug or alcohol addiction but don't have the time, resources, or need for inpatient treatment.

ALANA IOP treatment centers are covered by most major insurance providers, and allow you to continue working or going to school while receiving intensive drug and alcohol treatment.

Addiction Therapy

Addiction therapy is an important part of drug and alcohol rehab. Therapy can help you deal with underlying issues that contribute to drug or alcohol use, such as trauma, depression, anxiety, or other mental health problems. There are many different types of therapy available: individual counseling sessions with a therapist; group counseling sessions where you meet weekly for support from others who understand what you're experiencing.

Individual Addiction Therapy

Clients receive personal counseling appointments with a licensed therapist trained in addiction recovery. These sessions are confidential and allow you to get individualized drug or alcohol treatment. You can choose from many different types of therapy: cognitive behavioral therapy, person-centered counseling, dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), motivational interviewing, or eye movement desensitization reprocessing (EMDR).

What is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)?

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a type of therapy that helps you identify and change the thoughts and behaviors that contribute to drug or alcohol abuse. CBT teaches you how to deal with difficult thoughts and emotions in a healthy way.

What is Person-Centered Counseling? 

Person-centered counseling is a type of therapy that focuses on the client's experiences and feelings. This type of therapy allows you to explore your thoughts and emotions in a safe, supportive environment.

What is Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT)? 

Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) is a type of therapy that helps you learn how to manage difficult emotions and relationships. DBT focuses on increasing self-awareness and mindfulness, and teaches skills like distress tolerance and emotion regulation.

What is Motivational Interviewing? 

Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a type of counseling that helps you to explore your reasons for wanting to change your drug or alcohol use. MI helps you to develop Motivation Enhancement Therapy (MET), which is a plan tailored specifically for you to help overcome drug or alcohol addiction.

What is Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR)? 

Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) is a type of therapy that helps you to process trauma, reduce drug cravings and increase motivation for treatment. During EMDR sessions, your therapist will use eye movements or other bilateral stimulation techniques to help you reprocess traumatic memories in order to decrease drug cravings.
