Toms River LGBTQ-Friendly Substance Abuse Recovery Holistic Treatment Updated

Nov 7, 2023

Summary

Avisa Recovery, a family-owned addiction treatment center in Toms River, NJ, has announced its updated substance abuse recovery programs specifically designed for members of the LGBTQ+ community in New Jersey. The programs aim to provide the necessary support for LGBTQ+ patients to successfully recover from addiction, as it has been observed that LGBTQ+ adults are twice as likely as their heterosexual counterparts to use illicit drugs or have substance abuse disorders. The updated programs focus on helping patients develop effective coping mechanisms for social isolation and internalized homophobia, while also undergoing detox. The goal is to help patients recognize their triggers and learn how to avoid or manage them in the future, catering especially to individuals who choose to remain closeted due to fear of discrimination. Avisa Recovery begins all addiction treatment programs with a comprehensive medical review, taking into consideration the patient's mental and physical well-being. They believe in a holistic approach, employing a combination of treatments such as group therapy and spiritual practices to guide patients on their recovery journey and reduce the risk of relapse. The center offers various programs depending on the patient's needs, including residential inpatient, partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient, regular outpatient, and family therapy.

Toms River, United States - November 7, 2023 /PressCable/ —

The updated programs focus on helping patients find successful coping methods for dealing with social isolation and internalized homophobia while also undergoing detox. The goal is for the patient to recognize their triggers and learn how to avoid or manage them in the future. This is especially important for individuals who choose to remain “in the closet” to avoid discrimination from their family or peers.

All addiction treatment programs begin with a thorough medical review. This allows the team at Avisa to design personalized solutions that consider the patient’s mental well-being along with their physical health. The review will also include targeted questions to assess their current risk of suicide and other mental health issues like depression and anxiety.

Avisa believes in using a holistic approach in all its custom programs. It uses a combination of treatments, from group therapy to spiritual practices, to guide patients along their recovery journey and minimize the risk of relapse. It is important, the team says, that patients feel like they are in a safe and non-judgmental environment so they can focus on healing from their addiction without distraction.

Depending on the needs of the patient, residential inpatient, partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient, regular outpatient, or family therapy programs can be offered. Regardless, all patients work with an addiction recovery specialist who will closely monitor their journey. The addiction rehab offers support for both alcohol and drug addiction.

A spokesperson for the center wrote, "Our multifaceted treatment plan addresses the healing of the entire individual; emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual needs. We believe everyone should have access to quality care. Avisa continuously identifies and addresses systemic barriers that prevent marginalized populations from accessing care."
