We Seek To Reset, Restore, & Recover

Though the cliché states that men suffer most heavily from alcohol abuse, reality shows that women often develop a dependency that can be just as hard to fight. Many will need alcohol addiction treatment to overcome this problem or find themselves in a spiral lasting for years.

Thankfully, our LifeHouse alcohol addiction treatment will provide the kind of long-term care that many women need to recover. Please take a look at what steps we take to help you better understand the potential of our LifeHouse addiction treatment for your overall care.

Admissions — A Sometimes Challenging Process

The admissions process for alcohol addiction treatment in Iowa City or Wilton, Iowa, may be the most challenging part for some women to handle. It starts with them admitting that they have a problem and being willing to take steps to manage it. This step might take years to complete for some women, but it is still essential to avoiding health issues.

First, they need to contact us at LifeHouse alcohol addiction treatment and take steps to integrate themselves into our facility with ease. You'll get the chance to meet our counselors, take a look at our facility, learn more about our five-phase process, and get a feel for our care.

Once you are at a LifeHouse addiction treatment center, you'll be checked for any items that you shouldn't bring, including drugs, weapons, or anything else that is not allowed. We can provide you with a list of each item if you aren't sure about what we allow.

Our team will make sure to check every aspect of your belongings, including your suitcase. If we find anything you shouldn't have but which isn't too problematic, we'll talk about why we don't allow it and give you a chance to understand our policy.

We go through this process to ensure that each of our clients feels comfortable with the demands of recovery and can handle the unique difficulties that it may place on them. Our team wants you to feel satisfied with our alcohol addiction treatment and do what they can to help you meet that goal.

After your initial admissions phase is over, you can transition to more in-depth care with our team. This process can be challenging, but it ensures that you get the help you need. Our team works to assure your full preparedness for our uniquely beneficial process.

Assessment — Necessary for Finding the Best Care Options

After your intake into our alcohol addiction treatment program, you'll be assessed to gauge what kind of therapy is best for your needs. Our team will take the time to understand your life better and give you the chance of recovery that you deserve. The steps of this process will help to figure out:

• The Difficulty of Your Addiction — We'll do a series of surveys and tests to gauge the substances that have created an addiction in you and figure out the severity of your addiction. This step aims to help us better grasp what needs to be done to help you fully recover as a person.
• Any Medical Problems Affecting Your Recovery — Our specialists will assess your overall level of health to see if you need any care. We'll work to strengthen your body during this process and make it easier for you to transition to a more long-term care proposition without experiencing many challenges.
• The Depth of Co-Occurring Disorders — Most addictions have co-occurring mental health disorders that can worsen with time and make your dependency more challenging. Thankfully, our staff can assess the intensity of these disorders to ensure that you get the care that you need to recover properly.
• What Methods May Work the Best for You — After evaluating all of these elements of your life and gauging the intensity of your experience, we'll estimate which therapy option is the best for your needs, including counseling sessions that may help you overcome the intensity of this experience.

We believe that many women learn exciting facts about themselves during this process. You may find yourself coming to some great epiphanies about your addictive behaviors that will make your recovery process smoother and easier to handle, minimizing the dangers of long-term complications.
