Alcohol Rehab For Women

Addiction in its various forms is not selective with who it targets, and both men and women can suffer from drug or alcohol addiction.

However, while addiction can affect both men and women, there is some indication that alcoholism may take a different toll on women. With this in mind, Cassiobury Court will consider the specific situations impacting your addiction and tailor a bespoke treatment plan to any woman who requires addiction treatment at our residential rehab.

With the help of Cassiobury Court, we will be able to help you get the best quality addiction treatment, assistance with withdrawal symptoms, relapse prevention, and aftercare.

Our admissions process is quick, easy, and effective. All you need to do is call us on 0800 001 4070. However, if you are a woman and feel you may need more information about how addiction rehab works at our treatment services, then you should find all the information you need below.

Alcohol Addiction In Women

The majority of research into addiction was focused on how addictive disorders affect men until the early 21st century. It was initially assumed that addiction would take a similar toll on both men and women; however, due to the biological differences that occur between males and females, the effect can be very different — even in instances where men and women have been addicted to the same substances. One study, for instance, found that women may be less likely to end up abusing drugs and/or alcohol than men may be.

It is also suggested that the reason why women fall prey to addiction may be slightly different on average than the reason why men end up with addictive disorders. This is often the case as many women with addictive disorders will begin their descent into addiction by turning to drink in order to seemingly self-medicate against a stressful situation or re-occurring disorders. Additionally, some women find themselves turning to stimulants as a way to get through hectic lifestyles, enabling them to feel as though they are capable of doing more throughout the day.

While there are many drug and alcohol rehab treatment options that cater to both men and women, understanding more about how gender-specific addiction can manifest simply gives medical professionals a better chance of rooting out the underlying cause of a person’s addiction. Having more avenues to explore this means that your therapy will unearth more about your addiction and, in turn, give you a better chance of recovery.

Alcohol Rehabilitation For Women

Thankfully, there are more and more inpatient rehabs that are able to help those who have fallen prey to addiction. Additionally, the research done into how gender-specific differences may impact the manifestation of addiction means that more varied cases of addictive disorders are capable of being treated successfully.

There are also increasingly more places where women can find support in a safe space, such as with Women for Sobriety. Here at Cassiobury Court, we also take every single person’s individual relationship with addiction into consideration when plotting out their treatment plan. This means that we can pride ourselves on offering safe spaces tailored to each and every person — allowing your recovery to be conducted in an environment where you feel safe to be yourself and share your experiences.

When it comes to our therapies — and therapies available across other inpatient rehabilitation centres in the UK — you can hope to experience a wide array of treatments and therapies. By targeting both the body and the mind, our addiction specialists will be able to combat every aspect of your addictive disorder and, in turn, give you a more well-rounded and longer-lasting recovery.

Treatment And Therapy Options

When it comes to the actual treatments and therapies that you may experience when going through a course of addiction treatment, there are many different types that are used in practice. For instance, if you have developed a physical dependency upon alcohol (or another substance) then you will first need to go through a course of medically-assisted detoxification. This will allow our teams of medical staff to monitor you throughout withdrawal while also managing your side effects through carefully prescribed medication.

Once the withdrawal has been completed, you will experience such therapies as cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioural therapy (DBT), one-to-one psychotherapy, work with therapy groups, as well as the formation of a relapse prevention plan.

Aftercare And Relapse Prevention

Your relapse prevention plan will enable you to, as the name suggests, avoid falling back into old negative habits once you babe completed your addiction treatments. This works by breaking down your behavioural patterns (through the use of behavioural therapies) and then helping you to forge healthier behavioural patterns which work as an outlet for the internalised emotions which lead you to have developed an addiction in the first place.

Cassiobury Court also proved all of our clients with a complimentary one-year aftercare program. This will mean that you have all of the resources that you need once you leave our treatment centre so that you can stay on the straight and narrow.
