About Practical Recovery Services
We offer the full range of addiction
treatment, including detox, VIP care, intensive care, residential (in several settings), residential alternative, intensive, regular, or brief outpatient, and long distance phone
coaching.
We
treat
any type of substance or
activity addiction (and click here for information about eating disorders treatment). Our services are provided
one-on-one, in groups, or both. VIPs, professionals and anyone
with a demanding life will appreciate how our services are
designed around your needs and schedule.
We
use the latest scientifically supported treatments.
Although biological predisposition is important, ultimately
addictive behavior is learned, not a disease: You have the power
to change it!
PRS has
pioneered the development of the "therapy team."
This very simple but powerful concept makes you a full partner in your treatment process. Initially
you will have individual sessions with up to 10 different
psychotherapists. You may also have various alternative
health interventions, such as acupuncture, yoga, and bodywork.
We then work with you to choose the combination of therapists
and services that will be most helpful to you.
PRS was
established in 1985. We believe that there is no finer addiction
treatment program anywhere. We
work with the whole person, with special emphasis on the
underlying issues that lead to addiction. Our
comprehensive approach covers six main areas: building and
maintaining motivation, coping with craving, identifying and
overcoming any significant emotional or behavioral problems,
enhancing relationships, achieving greater lifestyle balance and
building a greater sense of purpose and meaning in life.
No
program is for everyone.
In this website we attempt to give you a good idea of what to
expect at PRS, so that you can make informed decisions about our
program. Unlike many other programs, we consider you still capable
of interpreting information and making good decisions! And you
will need these capabilities now, because what we offer is so
different from traditional
In
summary,
we offer individualized, scientific alcohol (or alcoholism) and
drug abuse treatment (also known as addiction rehabilitation). Our
psychological services are primarily cognitive behavioral (we
especially use cognitive therapy). Our services are not based on
AA (Alcoholics Anonymous) or other 12 step groups. This
approach is helpful to some, but not what our clients are looking
for! Our alternative, non-disease, non-AA, non-12-step
approach supports either abstinence or moderation for selected
clients (for alcohol this is specifically known as moderate
drinking). Clients who wish to address multiple issues ("dual
diagnosis") are particularly appropriate for our services.
Our services are offered in
Advancing
your well-being and happiness is our goal.
Think of us as a Spa for the Spirit!
