What Are The Benefits Of Nutritional Counseling In Addiction Recovery?

At New Beginnings Recovery Center, we believe in taking a holistic approach when offering drug and alcohol addiction treatment to our clients. Addiction is a chronic disease affecting the mind, body and spirit of those it touches, and for treatment to be effective in making long-term sobriety a reality, it must be dealt with on all three fronts. All of the clients we serve have the option of adding nutrition counseling to their recovery program.

Discover the benefits of nutritional counseling, at such a vital time for those in addiction recovery.

Benefits Of Nutritional Counseling In Addiction Recovery

Nutritional Counseling In Addiction Recovery-New Beginnings Palm BeachA number of people who have been active substance abusers have neglected their diet.

Part of recovery must involve improving physical health, which in turn has a positive effect on mental and spiritual health. Nutritional counseling for drug and alcohol detox benefits the body by restoring the necessary nutrients after both short- and long-term addiction.

Our nutrition counseling program matches clients with a health and nutrition coach who helps them to develop an eating plan that reflects their preferences, any special needs and lifestyle.

The health coach can also offer advice about how to recognize and eliminate behaviors that may lead to cravings that can start the downhill slide toward a relapse.

Through the process of working with a health coach, clients learn that preparing, serving and eating food is an enjoyable experience. Choosing what to eat, making a meal plan, shopping for ingredients, chopping and preparing fruits and vegetables, and as well as the other parts of the meal are all part of daily life.

Understanding one’s nutritional needs and learning the importance of preparing simple, nutritious and wholesome meals and snacks is something that a person in recovery can take pride in once they’re home. It helps to boost self-esteem and some people find that cooking is a relaxing activity, since it takes focus, can be fun and most of all, is rewarding.

Choosing A Rehab Based On Programs – Not Location

If you agree that the quality and types of programs and therapies offered at a rehab facility are factors in the likelihood of long-term sobriety and relapse prevention, then extending your search for a facility beyond your immediate living area makes good sense. Limiting your search to only rehabs near you means you are closing the door to considering programs which may be a better fit, even though you or your loved one may need to travel to access them.

Addiction Treatment Programs Offered At New Beginnings Recovery Center

At New Beginnings Recovery Center, we focus on offering long-term treatment options to our clients. We believe this approach provides our clients with the best chance for long-term sobriety. To help our clients achieve this goal, we offer a number of programs and therapies:

Natural Detox Program

We offer an integrative and natural addiction detox program that utilizes our Neurotransmitter Restoration Therapy. Our unique and effective detox program uses IV and oral supplements of vitamins, amino acids and minerals to replete a recovering addict’s body. Doing this allows for a faster and more complete restoration of both neurotransmitter and nutritional functions, which helps relieve many uncomfortable drug and alcohol withdrawal symptoms.

Inpatient Program

Our 28-day Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) is a day treatment program with community housing. It provides clients with a highly-structured environment for the early stage of treatment, which includes group therapy, education and relapse prevention.

Outpatient Program

Our 60 or 90-day Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) is available to clients who have successfully completed the PHP program. Our IOP is flexible and if you need, allows you to still go to school as well as work. Our Intensive Outpatient Program also includes group therapy and individual treatment programs, a 12-step program and more.

Mental Health Services

Psychiatric and mental health services are available to all clients in our programs. When clients come to us for detox, they automatically receive a psychiatric evaluation.

We can also provide outpatient psychiatric treatment for co-occurring disorders (mental health issues and addiction). Session frequency is based on our clients’ needs.

Integrative Medical Programs

Our integrative medical addiction treatment programs combine conventional medical therapies and alternative medicine to provide a holistic approach to treatment. By taking into account a person’s mind, body and soul, we get them on moving toward recovery quickly and completely.

Counseling

At New Beginnings Recovery Center, we have a number of mental health and substance abuse counseling programs to fit our clients’ busy schedules. Day and night groups meet five days each week. Individual counseling is offered in conjunction with our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP).

Alumni Programs And Aftercare

We offer both Alumni and aftercare addiction programs as well. Our Alumni program is free to join for program graduates and consists of catered, weekly meetings held on the property. The goal is to build relationships with peers, provide service opportunities, and foster a sense of belonging.

Sober Living

New Beginnings Recover Center offers Foundations Sober Living where we provide adults a safe place to live after finishing treatment while still in early recovery. Our Florida sober living also provides assistance with transportation, employment and basic life skills while transitioning to independent living. Each home has a resident manager on site 24 hours a day to oversee operations and provide assistance.

Basing Your Rehab Choice On Programs Rather Than Location

As you can see, with all of New Beginnings Recovery Center’s effective and unique programs offered in sunny and beautiful Palm Beach, Florida, it makes much more sense to choose a rehab facility based on programs, not solely location.

Our caring and professional staff treat each and every client with the respect that they need and deserve. We will create a customized plan made just for your individual needs and goals. We would love to hear from you today.

Program Spotlight: Integrative Medical Addiction Treatment Programs

Treating addiction involves looking at several aspects of a client’s lifestyle. Substance abuse has the potential to impact a person’s life in a number of ways. To achieve the goal of long-term sobriety, a treatment program needs to approach the disease from several fronts. The medical addiction treatment programs available here at New Beginnings Recovery Center offers help to treat the entire person.

Integrative Medical Addiction Treatment Programs-New Beginnings Center

Our approach to healing integrates clients’ body, mind and spirit. We make sure to look at the lifestyle aspects of each individual, since this is part of what determines each person’s needs when seeking help for substance abuse. Clients can benefit from both conventional and alternative therapies as part of their program.

Integrative Medical Addiction Programs

Restore Neurotransmitter Restoration Program

Our Restore Neurotransmitter Restoration Program includes providing IV treatments and oral supplements including amino acids, vitamins and minerals. The advantage of this form of treatment is that it restores nutritional and neurotransmitter function that has been damaged by ongoing drug or alcohol use. As a result, a number of the symptoms commonly associated with withdrawal from drugs and alcohol are alleviated.

The vitamins and minerals also give a boost to an individual who may not have been eating very well due to their addiction. Starting this process early gives our clients a jump start on restoring their nutritional health.

The program is individualized to suit each client’s needs. The basic oral supplementation program begins during the evaluation process to repair stomach and cellular function.

Personalized IV amino restoration treatments are administered a minimum of three times per week for three weeks. Additional weeks of treatment will be scheduled, if necessary.

Once the treatment has been completed, assessments are conducted to determine a client’s oral maintenance protocol. It includes amino acids, as well as personalized medical recommendations to lower the likelihood of a relapse.

Integrative Detox Programs

At New Beginnings Recovery, our Integrative Detox Programs combine the traditional approach to detox medicine with complementary alternative medicine therapies. This includes our Restore Neurotransmitter Restoration Program.

To support our clients who are going through detox, we of course provide nutritional support counseling. This is important, since many people who have been living with addiction have neglected this basic building block of good health.

We also offer a unique laser addiction treatment program called Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT). LLLT is theorized to decrease anxiety and improve mood by increasing the brain’s “feel-good” hormones, endorphins.

Another alternative therapy we offer is visual imagery and progressive muscle relaxation techniques to help our clients get into a peaceful state of mind where they can use their own problem-solving skills to improve their lives.

Hypnotherapy is also offered, and it is also helpful for clients who are looking to achieve a peaceful frame of mind where they are free from worry and anxiety.

What Are The Benefits Of Ongoing Drug And Alcohol Abuse Counseling?

At New Beginnings Recovery Center, drug and alcohol abuse counseling is one of our core programs. Ideally, our clients make counseling a priority on a long-term basis so that they can get the benefits of ongoing drug and alcohol abuse counseling.

Why Offer Counseling As Part Of Drug And Alcohol Treatment?

When individuals understand themselves and the nature of their addiction more clearly, they are able to make better choices. Someone who has experience emotional pain or trauma and wants to numb their feelings may have originally turned to drugs or alcohol because the substances helped them do this.

The problem with self-medicating however, is that it prevents people from properly dealing with their issues and tolerance can quickly build. There may not have been a lot of thought involved at the time; as it may have been a simple matter of cause-and-effect, which got out of their control.

Benefits Of Ongoing Drug And Alcohol Abuse Counseling-NewBeginningsIn treatment counseling, our caring and professional staff works with each individual to get them to look at the events or feelings that brought them to the point where they felt they needed to numb out and not be fully present. By understanding and observing the negative thoughts from the past and by learning to change them to more positive ones, individuals are able to adopt new behaviors in the present.

Some Benefits Of Ongoing Drug And Alcohol Abuse Counseling

There are a number of benefits to continuing counseling after the initial course of substance abuse treatment has concluded, such as:

  • It provides a source of support as our clients continue to use the coping strategies they have learned in treatment.
  • Counselors (and other participants if client is in group therapy) can provide helpful feedback when clients are facing challenging interpersonal situations.
  • Clients can continue to work on self-confidence and self-esteem issues.
  • Not all issues around negative thoughts can be solved during initial drug and alcohol treatment; our clients can address these issues during ongoing counseling as needed.
  • Counselors are available to help clients who are at risk for a relapse and help them head off the situation before a slip (or the possibility of one) becomes a full-fledged binge.
  • An important part of the work that substance abuse counselors do is to help clients learn to forgive themselves — and the other people in their lives – so that they can move forward.

Ongoing Substance Abuse Counseling Can Help You

As you can see, ongoing substance abuse counseling can benefit anyone – even if they have remained successful in their sobriety.

Why Do Individualized Drug Treatment Programs Offer The Best Chance For Success?

Individualized Drug Treatment Programs-New BeginningsTreating addiction is not like treating an illness where a physician can prescribe a course of treatment based on test results. Addiction is a chronic illness that is complicated and requires comprehensive and unique treatment.

At New Beginnings Recovery Center, we offer individualized drug treatment programs that recognize the uniqueness of each person we treat. This approach offers our clients the best chance for success and we have seen many of them move from the active stage of addiction to successful recovery using our methods.

Benefits Of A Personalized Addiction Program

The benefits of a personalized addiction treatment program are countless since as a one-size-fits-all rehab simply does not work for each and every person seeking help for addiction. Each individual has their own history, story about why they became addicted, reasons why they continue to use, issues they particularly want to address with their counselors, and treatment goals.

For this reason, clients need a personalized treatment plan that is centered around their own needs and individual goals.

At New Beginnings Recovery, we offer individual and group counseling and therapy sessions to get at the root of each individual’s addiction. We also offer other customized activities to encourage our clients to learn relaxation skills, become more physically fit and develop (or rediscover) their creativity. From this “basket” of activities, clients can choose therapies to help them work through the stressors in their lives instead of turning to drugs or alcohol. The tools learned from these programs can be applied long after a client leaves our program.

Effective For Dual Diagnosis

Not all of the clients we see are being treated solely for substance abuse issues. We also treat people who need help for mental health concerns like depression, anxiety and PTSD (Post-traumatic Stress Disorder). It’s not uncommon for people living with these conditions to use drugs and/or alcohol to self-medicate, either because they don’t know what is wrong with them or because they don’t know how to get the help they need.

Unfortunately, self-medicating can complicate any underlying mental health conditions. At New Beginnings Recovery Center, we can offer detox as well as a personalized treatment plan to fit each clients’ specific treatment needs and goals. We can help you and your loved ones recover today!

What Are The Unique Benefits Of Our Individual Addiction Therapy?

Benefits Individual Addiction Therapy-New Beginnings Recovery CenterAt New Beginnings Recovery Center (NBRC), we know that utilizing multiple addiction treatment options provides the greatest chance at recovery. This is exactly why we provide several treatment methods to our clients.

One of these options is our individual addiction therapy where clients can discuss issues based on their needs with a therapist in one-on-one counseling sessions. This type of therapy is used in combination with the group therapy offered through our Intensive Outpatient Therapy Program (IOP) and is an important component of any drug or alcohol addiction or mental health treatment program.

Learn about the many benefits of individual addiction treatment therapy.

Benefits Of Our Individual Addiction Therapy

The benefits of our individual addiction therapy include:

Knowledgeable And Caring Counselors

All of our staff therapists have extensive backgrounds in addiction therapy. We treat each and every client with the personable respect that they both need and deserve.

Male And Female Therapists

We understand that some of our clients may have a preference about the gender of their counselor, and for that reason we have both male and female therapists on staff to make our clients as comfortable as possible.

Flexible Scheduling

Individual addiction therapy sessions can be scheduled around our clients’ work, school or family responsibilities.

Multiple Issues Treated

Our individual counselors are available to help clients with the following issues or concerns:

  • Anxiety
  • Depression
  • Domestic violence
  • Parenting issues
  • Sex addiction
  • Sexual orientation
  • Substance abuse
  • Trauma

And we offer couples therapy, family therapy and marriage counseling (one or both partners) to help heal any past or ongoing issues.

Individual Mental Health Therapy For Addiction

Individual mental health therapy for addiction can be beneficial when working with clients who have a dual diagnosis (those who suffer from depression, bipolar disorder, or other mental health disorder in addition to drug or alcohol addiction). A client can work one-on-one with their own counselor to successfully work through their specific issues effectively.

Individual therapy is a necessary part of addiction treatment recovery. In a one-on-one session with a professional and caring therapist, a client has privacy to share his or her history with someone they can get to know and trust. At times, clients feel reserved or uncomfortable about expressing personal issues or past traumas in a group therapy setting. Clients can build a relationship with their counselor that creates an atmosphere of trust, which allows the client and the counselor to dig into the underlying causes of addiction and take the time to work on specific issues and concerns.

How Sober Living Houses Helps People Move From Treatment To Independent Living

One of the features that New Beginnings Recovery Center offers clients in early recovery is the opportunity to stay in one of our sober living houses. Leaving a treatment program and transitioning to living in the community is a challenging time. Simply moving from one environment to the other without adequate support is not recommended or ideal since it usually doesn’t end in a favorable outcome.

What Is A Sober Living House?

Since drug and alcohol addiction is a chronic illness, a client goes into recovery during the treatment process. This is an ongoing process, as opposed to a person being “cured.” Choosing to go to a sober living house during recovery allows someone to live in a safe supportive environment when they are either trying to get back to work or school.

Sober Living-Living Room - New Beginnings Recovery Center

During the first few months that a client leaves treatment, he or she is particularly at risk for a relapse, since using the tools to manage stressors of everyday life learned during the program are still new. Having some extra support during the first several months after leaving treatment will greatly benefit someone making this transition.

How A Sober Living Home Works

Sober living gives clients a place where they can continue to focus on their recovery and have more independence than in a residential treatment program. They offer an affordable place to stay where residents must remain drug-and-alcohol free while working on their individual recovery plans.

Sober Living Bedroom - New Beginnings Recovery Center

At New Beginnings Recovery Center, sober living house residents must commit to staying at Foundations Sober Living (our sober living homes) for at least six months, attend a 12-step program under the guidance of a sponsor, and follow house rules, including abiding by specific curfews. They must also agree to do one of the following for the duration of their stay:

  • Obtain employment
  • Go to school
  • Participate in volunteer work
  • Go to an outpatient therapy program

Sober living homes are fully furnished and the cost of the stay in these facilities includes utilities. Residents buy and cook their own food. A resident manager lives onsite to provide assistance and oversee the day-to-day operations of the house. All residents know that random drug and alcohol tests will be conducted, and that they are required to pass in order to continue their stay.

New Beginnings Recovery Center has several drug and alcohol treatment programs to help you or a loved one start a new phase in life. It starts by calling us today!

Long Term Rehab: How Much Time Is Enough?

You may have read news reports of celebrities checking into facilities for a short-term treatment program of 28 day or so, and concluded that they have received all the care that they need to deal with a substance abuse issue. While we don’t know why a person chooses a particular treatment model, in some cases the decision to choose short-term rehab may be partially motivated by scheduling considerations or other factors.

The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) describes addiction as a “complex illness.” It is a brain disease that affects the circuits controlling motivation, reward, learning, memory, and the ability to control behavior. We know that people affected by addiction will continue to drink or do drugs, even when faced with negative consequences of their actions.

Since addiction is a chronic disease, simply getting someone to stop drinking or using drugs for a few weeks is not the same thing as treating the underlying factors and completing a comprehensive treatment program. The NIDA recommends long-term rehab for best results.

Long Term Rehab For Addiction

Partial Hospitalization Program

A 28-day partial hospitalization program (PHP) for drug and alcohol abuse, such as the one offered by New Beginnings Recovery Center, provides clients with addiction education, group and individual therapy. It also gives them a foundation for further treatment with us, which will allow them to address the many underlying issues that led to their addiction.

Intensive Outpatient Program

Once the 28-day PHP has been completed, clients can move into a 60 or 90-day intensive outpatient treatment option. This level of care involves clients living in our sober housing facilities. They receive 10 hours of group therapy and individual counseling sessions per week. In addition to these services, they also attend a 12-step program and take steps to obtain employment and work on their life skills.

Long Term Rehab Is The Best Chance At Lifelong Sobriety

When an addiction is severe or has been established over several years, it is unrealistic to expect that a person will be able to make a major lifestyle change and deal with the underlying issues within a short time. Long term rehab gives a client the best chance of reaching his or her goal of being able to maintain sobriety after leaving a treatment program.

New Beginnings Recovery Center offers several treatment programs to meet its clients’ specific needs.

Program Spotlight: Intensive Outpatient Program

New Beginnings Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) was developed for clients for whom a residential program is not the best choice due to work, school or family responsibilities. Our customized and flexible, yet more intensive treatment program is also a good choice for clients who are in early recovery, since it provides a solid foundation for long-term sobriety.

About Our Intensive Outpatient (IOP) Program

We understand that our clients have busy schedules and for that reason, we have groups that meet during the day and in the evening, five nights a week. Group therapy is an effective form of therapy for clients in recovery from drug and alcohol addiction, since it gives them a sense that they are not alone. Sharing their struggles and successes with others helps all participants to gain strength on their own personal journeys to stay sober.

Intensive Outpatient Program in Florida-New Beginnings Recovery Center

Individual counseling sessions are also available in conjunction with our Intensive Outpatient Program. During these meetings, clients get at the root of personal issues, such as the reasons for their addictions, personal issues in their lives, and anything they do not feel comfortable sharing during group therapy sessions. At New Beginnings Recovery Center, our flexible treatment program allows us to schedule a mix of sessions to meet the individual needs of each client we serve.

Advantages Of Choosing Our Intensive Outpatient Treatment Program

  • Clients get the help they need to treat their addiction and can return home at the end of each day.
  • They can continue to have the support of their family, friends and members of the community during this process.
  • Treatment sessions can be scheduled around work or school hours in many cases, allowing them to continue with their regular routines.
  • Since our IOP is conducted on a flexible day and evening schedule, we can help to ensure our clients’ privacy while they are seeking help for a drug or alcohol addiction.
  • Returning to the “real world” immediately after individual and/or group therapy sessions allows our clients to practice the strategies they have learned immediately, without waiting to be released from an inpatient program. They can then return to the group or individual counselor to discuss their progress and get feedback while still in treatment to receive encouragement and further support.

Intensive Outpatient Program In Florida

Our Intensive Outpatient Program in relaxing and beautiful Florida is flexible enough to meet our clients’ needs when in early recovery. Our caring and professional staff will help you successfully overcome addiction and teach you the tools to use for long-term sobriety. We are here for you!
