Have you been looking for a residential recovery center in Los Angeles that, well, feels like an actual “residence?” Does it seem like all of the different recovery centers you’ve looked at treat you like a number and not like a person? At Y and Y Recovery, we believe that detox followed by residential treatment can help a person to be stabilized. In the context of recovery and interrupting the substance abuse cycle, we define “stabilization” as “the process of becoming or being made unlikely to change, fail, or decline.” After you’ve come to our facility, you’ll be clean, sober, healthy, and happy, while unlikely to change, fail, or decline.
First Principle of Our Residential Recovery Center in Los Angeles
The first principle that our treatment is focused on is “building coping skills.” If you’re struggling with addiction, it’s very likely that you have maladaptive coping skills. That means you cope with the struggles and challenges of life with drugs, alcohol, etc. Those coping skills may help you to feel better for a moment, but ultimately, they’re worse for you in the long run (as well as the short run). Here, we can help you to build the kinds of coping skills that are healthy, that can make you happier, that can genuinely improve your life. Moreover, you’ll be able to cope, (for lack a better word) with the challenges life may present you with that much better.
Utilizing Your Living Skills
We don’t just focus on coping skills here, of course – we also work on buttressing and improving the living skills that you might have. For example, if you’re like so many others who struggle with addiction, much of your life has probably been focused on feeding the addiction, so to speak. You may have ignored your job, let your social life atrophy, and so forth. Our living skills will help you to, in a very real way, live better. That means growing (or reawakening) the skills you need to succeed socially, professionally, and more.
The Motives and Passions that Drive You Onward
The third principle that our treatment focuses on is “helping individuals redefine their motives and passions for ongoing recovery and abstinence.” For example, why do you want to live sober? “To be sober,” is good, but it may not be good enough. Not when temptation comes around, that kind of thing. By bolstering your motives and passions, we help you to make it all the more likely that you’ll stay sober, healthy, and happy come what may.
Harm Reduction and More
The fourth and final principle that our treatment is focused on is “understanding harm reduction.” By assisting folks in having a greater understanding of how they can lessen the potential for harm to themselves and others, they’ll be that much better equipped to lead the lives they want long after they’ve left Y and Y Recovery.
