Sometimes, when you have an important decision to make, it can be helpful to get someone else’s perspective on the topic at hand. That is true whether you are trying to, for example, buy a new refrigerator, choose the next television program to binge, or change jobs or careers. And it is certainly true when you are thinking about where to get help for a substance use disorder.
We, of course, are biased. We think you should pursue treatment with us. And in this post, we are going to take a look at five aspects of our approach to substance use disorder treatment that we think make our case. But before we do that, we also wanted to share the perspective of someone who has received treatment at Bel Aire Recovery Center:
I feel very grateful for this treatment facility. I have been to an AA based facility before and it was unsuccessful. From the first class I attended at Bel Aire Recovery Center, I have learned so many new aspects of addiction, science, and skills to help me be successful in my recovery.
The counselors and doctors focus on the underlying mental and physical health that led to substance abuse other than simply focusing on the addiction. I believe this philosophy is vital for success in recovery. I truly believe if I implement the knowledge and skills this facility is providing me, along with the post-treatment care and programs, I can overcome my addiction, remain sober, and live a life full of happiness and success that I never thought possible.
With those words from a Bel Aire graduate as our introduction, let’s take a look at the key services we offer at our facility.
1. Medically Monitored Detoxification
The first step on the road to a lasting recovery is detoxification. It is essential that you can get drugs or alcohol out of your system in a safe environment that is free of temptations. Bel Aire offers just that kind of environment with an approach to detox built around compassion, scientifically proven best practices, and medical and clinical expertise.
We provide individual counseling throughout the detoxification process, trauma-informed treatment, and a comfortable environment to help see you through the initial process of leaving drugs or alcohol behind.
2. Residential Treatment
Often, the best option following detox is residential treatment. Stepping away from day-to-day responsibilities—and habits—can help a person settle into recovery in a structured environment while they participate in intensive group, individual, and family therapy and experience support from their peers and from Bel Aire’s exceptional team.
Our residential treatment program allows participants to learn and practice a range of skills that can serve them well once their time at Bel Aire comes to an end. That can help them start their journey with confidence—even when tough moments arise.
3. Family Program
It is only natural to think of a substance use disorder as an individual problem. But, of course, the lives around a person struggling with drugs or alcohol are often also upended—and it can be hard to know how to repair damage and move forward together after treatment. Our family program is designed to address these sorts of issues.
Through family systems therapy, we help families establish boundaries, address codependency, strengthen support systems, enhance communication, and build on a spirit of empathy and understanding.
4. Trauma-Informed Treatment
Our approach to caring for the individuals we serve includes ensuring that our approach is trauma-informed. That includes specific approaches for those who have served in the military. But traumatic experiences can be a part of anyone’s story, so we are committed to a practice that is trauma-informed as well as trauma responsive.
5. Aftercare Support
The research is clear: Individuals who have gone through treatment for a substance use disorder do better when they have access to ongoing resources and support. Bel Aire Recovery Center’s aftercare support program is built around that key idea.
Among the essential resources we offer to our alumni is the CaredFor app, which allows those who have been through our program to stay connected and engaged with one another. It also provides access to resources and support, as well as a personalized dashboard that tracks your day-by-day recovery success.
