YOU are worth recovery.
Drug Addictions We Treat
Lotus Recovery Treatment Center offers comprehensive, effective drug treatment services in a comforting, structured environment. Our clients have the opportunity to reconnect with their true selves and learn the skills needed to remain sober. Since everyone’s story is unique, our team creates an individualized treatment plan for each client. Plans include a combination of evidence-based therapies, holistic therapies and medication, if needed. They also take into consideration each person’s strengths, challenges and goals. Each treatment plan may also include counseling and behavioral therapy and Mental health outpatient therapy for whole-person healing.
The drug addictions that we treat include:
01
Alcohol
Alcohol is a legal controlled substance, but this does make it safe. When consumed, it slows down the body’s vital functions, leading to slurred speech, loss of coordination and slowed reaction times. Alcohol can also lower inhibitions, making it difficult to think rationally. While drinking in moderation does not seem to indicate a problem, drinking in excess can.
Alcohol addiction is treated with medications and behavioral therapies. Having continued support is also important since alcohol is likely to turn up in your everyday life. Participating in a group like Alcoholics Anonymous holds you accountable and keeps you motivated. We also support clients who require dual diagnosis treatment to manage both addiction and mental health conditions.
02
Benzodiazepines
Benzodiazepines—Xanax, Klonopin, Ativan, Valium—are pharmaceutical drugs that relieve anxiety and panic attacks. While they do have a purpose for some individuals, they can also be habit-forming. People can build a tolerance to benzos, leading to dependence. The risks of taking benzos increases when the drugs are combined with other substances like alcohol.
Comprehensive treatment for benzos typically includes cognitive behavioral therapy, support groups and medications to reduce cravings.
03
Illicit drugs
Illicit drugs include addictive and illegal substances like heroin and cocaine. These substances vary greatly, as some cause the central nervous system to slow down while others rev it up. Even just a single dose of these drugs can start you on the path to addiction. Once a physical or psychological dependence forms, using illicit drugs takes center stage. Nothing else matters but obtaining and consuming the drug. This is addiction.
The main types of illicit drugs include:
- Cocaine
- Heroin
- Fentanyl
- Inhalants
- Crystal meth
- Hallucingaones
- Ecstasy
- Ketamine
- Marijuana
Drug Treatment in Thousand Oaks
Although there is no cure, the right support can help you overcome addiction and remain drug-free. Your treatment will depend on the severity of your addiction, how long you’ve been using, and the presence of any co-occurring disorders. Our team provides specialized drug addiction treatment options to help clients safely recover from a wide range of substances.
Lotus Recovery Treatment Center provides individualized treatment services for drug addiction. Because addiction affects every aspect of a person’s life, drug treatment must be targeted and comprehensive. Unresolved trauma and co-occurring mental health conditions can make recovery more challenging. At our drug treatment center in Thousand Oaks, CA, we focus on addressing these underlying factors through structured therapy, mental health support, and ongoing recovery care. We also offer an evidence-based partial hospitalization program for those needing structured daytime treatment without overnight stays.
Alcohol withdrawal can be dangerous, so it’s important to undergo medical detox when necessary. Withdrawal symptoms may include sweating, anxiety, increased heart rate, tremors, nausea, vomiting, and insomnia. Medically supervised detox can help individuals manage withdrawal symptoms safely under professional medical care. Lotus Recovery Treatment Center does not provide on-site detoxification or medical withdrawal management. Individuals who require detox should complete this process with a qualified medical provider before beginning outpatient addiction treatment.
Once you complete detox, if medically necessary, you can begin the recovery process through structured outpatient treatment at Lotus Recovery Treatment Center. Our programs provide therapy, recovery support, and practical coping strategies to help individuals work toward long-term sobriety.
Drug addiction can be treated with the following:
Behavior Therapy
Behavior therapy is a form of psychotherapy that can be done in an individual, group or family setting. The purpose of behavior therapy is to help you develop new ways to cope, prevent relapse and repair relationships. You can also address co-occurring mental health conditions, as well as include family members in the process. Popular forms of behavior therapy include cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy and psychotherapy. Modern treatment options also include TMS treatment and evening therapy to support varying schedules and clinical needs.
Medications
In some cases, medications can help treat a drug addiction. Medicines won’t cure your addiction, but they can help manage symptoms and decrease cravings, reducing the risk for relapse. If you have dual diagnosis, medications will likely be an important part of your treatment plan, as they can help manage the symptoms of mental illness.
Self-Help Groups
Many self-help groups use the 12-step model, though not all do. Self-help groups recognize that addiction is a chronic condition that involves periods of remission and relapse. These groups can also help you deal with the shame and guilt you may be feeling from your addiction, as well as prevent social isolation. You can find self-help groups in your community or online.
Holistic Therapies
Holistic addiction therapies treat the whole person—the emotional, physical and spiritual aspects impacted by addiction. When used alongside evidence-based treatments, it’s easier to bring the mind, body and spirit into alignment so that full healing can occur. Some of the holistic therapies offered at Lotus Recovery Treatment Center include breathwork, meditation and art therapy. Clients also benefit from customized holistic therapy addiction services that promote balance and long-term healing.
