Non-12-Step Addiction Rehab

There’s no one right path to recovery that works for everyone – and that’s why at Coast to Coast we offer a variety of proven addiction treatments, including non-12-step addiction rehab.

Unfortunately, some models of rehabilitation centers typically base their program model on the most modern scientific research available. These centers are well aware of current information about dual diagnosis treatment, the mechanics of how substances work within the brain, and modern psychological research as it relates to substance abuse. This up-to-the-minute information can make these treatment centers an excellent option for many individuals. Individuals who have attempted to follow a program based on outdated science or methods that are non-scientific may find a scientifically based treatment model a welcome change.

Studies show that taking a one-size-fits-all approach to addiction treatment is very often a recipe for failure. At Coast to Coast, our motto is “getting it right the first time,” and to do this we make sure to work with you to create a treatment plan that’s unique to you – one that matches your experiences, relationships, addiction, health history, and more.

Benefits of Non-12-Step Treatment

While 12-step programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or one of the 12-step spin-offs have helped millions over the decades, it’s not for everyone. For example, clients facing dual diagnoses and mental health conditions often require a blending of medication, counseling, and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to manage their addiction and restore psychological stability. Or, perhaps another client may have better success with a completely different approach to getting sober, like a combination of SMART Recovery, which teaches self-empowerment and uses mutual-help support groups, gender-specific therapies, and wilderness or art therapy.

The benefits of non-12-step addiction treatment programs are plenty, including:

Tailoring treatment to a client’s strengths and weakness
Utilizing the latest scientific research on addiction, including current information about treating dual diagnosis
Helping individuals learn to rely on a support team, medical intervention, and new coping skills
