Alcohol Addiction Treatment
Treatment starts with a call and a straight answer about where you are right now. At Lousage Institute, we help you stop drinking safely through medical detox, then build the daily habits and support that keep it going, from your first week here through long-term aftercare. We stay with you.
How Lousage Institute Treats Alcohol Addiction
Your first step with us is a clinical assessment. We look at how much you drink, how long you have been drinking, your medical history, and your mental health, and that picture tells us the right level of care to start with.
Alcohol withdrawal can be dangerous. Shakes, sweating, high blood pressure, and in some cases seizures mean withdrawal needs medical supervision, so when that risk is present we begin with medically supervised detox.
After detox, treatment continues. Some people need the structure of residential rehab, while others do well in an intensive outpatient program that fits around work and family.
If you are living with anxiety, depression, or trauma, we treat those alongside the drinking. We do not split them into separate problems, because for most people they feed each other.
Therapies We Use
Your care plan starts with an assessment, then we build the mix that fits what you're actually dealing with. That usually means cognitive behavioral therapy to work through the thinking behind use, group therapy to practice it with others, and family support when the people close to you need to be part of recovery. When it's clinically appropriate, we add medication-assisted treatment.
