What Is Addiction Rehab?

Addiction rehabilitation is a comprehensive treatment program that addresses the psychological, behavioral, and social aspects of substance use disorder. While detox removes drugs from your body, rehab teaches you how to live without them. At Better Choice Treatment Center in Las Vegas, our rehab programs combine evidence-based therapies, holistic healing, and individualized care to help you build a foundation for lasting recovery.

Addiction is a chronic brain disease—not a moral failing. Our clinical team understands that sustainable recovery requires treating underlying trauma, mental health conditions, and learned behaviors. Through intensive therapy, skill development, and peer support, you'll discover the tools to maintain sobriety and rebuild your life.

Research consistently shows that longer treatment durations lead to better outcomes. While detox typically lasts 5-10 days, rehabilitation programs range from 30 to 90 days or more. The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) recommends a minimum of 90 days of treatment for optimal results. During this time, you'll work intensively on the root causes of addiction, develop relapse prevention skills, address co-occurring mental health disorders, and build a strong foundation for long-term sobriety.

Rehabilitation is where real change happens. You'll learn to identify triggers that led to substance use, develop healthy coping mechanisms to replace drugs and alcohol, understand the neuroscience of addiction and how your brain has changed, repair relationships damaged by addiction, build new social connections with people in recovery, establish structure and routine in your daily life, and create a relapse prevention plan for maintaining sobriety after treatment. Our goal is not just to help you stop using—it's to help you build a life you don't want to escape from.

Why Detox Alone Isn't Enough

Many people mistakenly believe that once they complete detox, the hard part is over. In reality, detox is just the beginning. Statistics show that people who complete detox but don't continue to rehabilitation have relapse rates exceeding 90% within the first year. Why? Because detox only addresses physical dependence—it doesn't address the reasons you started using in the first place.

What Detox Does

  • Manages acute withdrawal symptoms safely
  • Removes drugs/alcohol from your system
  • Stabilizes vital signs and medical conditions
  • Prepares you physically for treatment
  • Typically lasts 5-10 days

Detox addresses ONLY physical dependence

What Rehab Does

  • Addresses psychological dependence and cravings
  • Treats underlying trauma and mental health issues
  • Teaches coping skills and relapse prevention
  • Repairs relationships and family dynamics
  • Builds life skills for sustainable recovery
  • Creates aftercare plan for long-term success
  • Typically lasts 30-90 days or longer

Rehab addresses the ROOT CAUSES of addiction

The Bottom Line: Detox gets drugs out of your body. Rehab teaches you how to keep them out. Completing both gives you the best chance at lasting recovery. Studies show that people who complete 90 days of treatment have relapse rates 50-70% lower than those who leave after detox alone.

Evidence-Based Therapies We Use

At Better Choice Treatment Center in Las Vegas, we use scientifically proven therapies that research has demonstrated to be most effective in treating addiction. Our clinical team combines multiple therapeutic approaches tailored to your specific needs.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

The gold standard in addiction treatment. CBT helps you identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors that fuel addiction. You'll learn to recognize triggers, challenge distorted thinking, develop coping strategies for high-risk situations, and build problem-solving skills.

Proven to reduce relapse rates by 50-60% when combined with other treatments.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Originally developed for borderline personality disorder, DBT is highly effective for addiction, especially when co-occurring with emotional dysregulation. You'll build skills in four key areas: emotional regulation (managing intense feelings without substances), distress tolerance (surviving crises without using), mindfulness (staying present and aware), and interpersonal effectiveness (healthy relationships and communication).

Especially effective for people with trauma history and co-occurring mental health disorders.

Trauma-Informed Care & EMDR

An estimated 75% of people with substance use disorders have experienced trauma. Many turned to drugs or alcohol to cope with PTSD, childhood abuse, or adverse experiences. Our trauma-informed approach recognizes the connection between trauma and addiction. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a specialized therapy that helps process traumatic memories in a safe, controlled environment, reducing their emotional impact.

EMDR can reduce PTSD symptoms by 77-90% in 3-6 sessions.

Group Therapy & Peer Support

Connect with others in recovery who understand what you're going through. Group therapy provides accountability, shared experiences, learning from others' successes and struggles, reduced isolation and shame, practicing social skills in a safe environment, and building a recovery community. Groups are led by licensed therapists and focus on specific topics like relapse prevention, anger management, grief and loss, and relationship building.

Peer support is one of the strongest predictors of long-term recovery success.

Individual Counseling

One-on-one sessions with licensed therapists (3-5 times per week). Your therapist creates a personalized treatment plan addressing your unique circumstances, goals, trauma history, family dynamics, mental health, and life situation. Individual therapy provides a safe space to explore sensitive issues you may not feel comfortable sharing in groups.

Family Therapy

Addiction affects the entire family system. Family therapy helps heal relationships damaged by addiction, educate loved ones about the disease of addiction, teach families how to support recovery without enabling, address codependency and unhealthy dynamics, and rebuild trust and communication. Family involvement significantly improves treatment outcomes and reduces relapse risk.

Holistic Healing Approaches

In addition to evidence-based therapies, we incorporate holistic practices that support whole-person healing—mind, body, and spirit.

  • Mindfulness & Meditation - stress reduction and present-moment awareness
  • Yoga & Fitness Programs - physical health, stress relief, endorphin boost
  • Nutritional Counseling - repairing body damage from substance use
  • Art & Music Therapy - creative expression and emotional processing
  • Recreational Activities - building healthy leisure skills
  • Acupuncture & Massage - pain relief and relaxation without medication

12-Step Facilitation

We integrate 12-step principles (AA/NA) into treatment and facilitate attendance at meetings. While not required, 12-step involvement significantly increases long-term recovery rates. We also support alternative recovery pathways like SMART Recovery, Refuge Recovery, and secular recovery programs.

Our Addiction Rehab Programs in Las Vegas

Specialized treatment programs for every substance and situation. Each program is tailored to address the unique challenges of specific addictions.

Co-Occurring Disorder Treatment

Most people with addiction also struggle with mental health conditions. Our dual diagnosis program treats both simultaneously for better outcomes.

Depression & Anxiety Disorders
PTSD & Trauma Disorders
Bipolar Disorder
Personality Disorders

Why Dual Diagnosis Matters

Treating only addiction or only mental health leaves the underlying issues unresolved, leading to relapse. Our psychiatrists and therapists address both conditions with integrated care.
