The onset of alcohol and drug addiction oftentimes stems from the individual becoming apathetic and depressed about their lives.  Our caring and considerate staff employed here at the Orange County Alcohol Rehab facility is well aware of this, knowing that over 10 million individuals succumb to some sort of depressed behavior annually.  We are also aware of the fact that depression affects twice as many women as it does men.  When depression goes untreated or unnoticed, it becomes a crippling situation in which the individual will oftentimes fall prey to alcohol or drug addiction.

The Orange County Alcohol Rehab facility knows how depression hurts everyone around the suffering individual.  When you combine that with alcohol or substance abuse, this worsens that situation by attacking not only the physical well-being of the individual, but their emotional and mental states as well.  Our staff as well as the licensed physicians and/or psychologists who surprise the Orange County Alcohol Rehab programs know that you cannot successfully treat the client suffering with alcohol addiction if these three aspects of well-being are not addressed during the treatment and recovery process.

Our methods here at the Orange County Alcohol Rehab facility are based on the use of various treatment and recovery “tools” such as the following:

One-on-One counseling sessions – clients are counseled and supervised by one of our licensed physicians and/or psychologists in a private, individual setting.  Some of the staff members that clients deal with are those who have undergone treatment and recovery themselves, and are recovering alcoholics as well.

Group therapy sessions – the group therapy session, wherein several clients are involved with a licensed professional in a closed and extremely confidential meeting, is another effective treatment and recovery tool that we utilize.

12-Step meetings – the staff here at the Orange County Alcohol Rehab center is well aware that our clients need to feel comfortable in their surroundings yet still need to be exposed to 12-Step meetings that support them while they are here at our facility.

Educational sessions – clients are exposed to computers, instructional lectures, and videos in order to educate them regarding key elements involved in their treatment and recovery.  Several of the topics they are exposed to include:

• Addiction and Spirituality
• Codependency
• Exercise Physiology
• Health and Nutrition
• Philosophies of the 12 – step Program
• Physiological consequences and effects of their substance addiction

The client has the tendency to encounter a lot of unpleasant situations while they are enrolled in the Orange County Alcohol Rehab program.  These include blackouts, nausea, shaking, sweating, twitching, and vomiting, all of which indicate just how deeply the damage runs from their years of addiction.  And that damage appears at all three levels namely emotional, mental, and physical.  So to effectively treat our clients, our program deals with their addiction on all three levels.
