Rehab Treatment

Let's face it - family can be so stressful. In the worst cases, difficult, damaged people showing up to spend time with other difficult, damaged people. Perhaps no time of year makes this more evident than the holiday season!

Yet of course, the words “difficult” and “damaged” are just our own judgments, just stories that we tell. We could also say that our families are made up of beautiful, big-hearted, and funny people. But often we need to begin the healing process by acknowledging what’s hard about family life.

Did you know that among people who are ready to stop using drugs, the number-one hurdle to receiving addiction treatment is a lack of financial means?

The 12-step approach to drug and alcohol addiction treatment has been around for decades. Many people have overcome addiction using this method. However, some people may want a non-12 step recovery approach. How does recovery without 12 steps differ from the 12-step model? Moreover, can it help you?

If you’ve never been to residential addiction treatment before, the typical experience goes like this:

• Every day, there’s someone new checking in as someone else checks out;
• Everyone is at different stages in there recovery process;
• People are constantly coming and going;
• There is very little continuity.

Even in the better programs, there’s an ongoing sense of hustle, bustle, and disruption. There is a fundamental lack of stability and security, and all of this wears on you emotionally.

Moreover, it impedes your addiction recovery process.

When you’re seeking a treatment center for yourself or a loved one, only programs of the highest caliber matter. That’s why we’ve compiled this list of the best non 12 Step rehabs in the country.
