Detox is the first step in overcoming substance abuse and substance use disorder (SUD). It is not just ceasing the use of these addictive substances but also managing difficult challenges that this sudden change can present when expelling these substances from the body. Drug detoxification and alcohol detox treatment services can help manage the rapid and uncomfortable symptoms that come with this first important step toward sobriety, and we at Thrive Treatment, located in Los Angeles, California, are prepared to help you navigate these challenges to begin your sober journey.
Detox marks the beginning of effective healing, but it is just the first step in your alcohol or drug rehabilitation journey. Professional detox services are not just the beginning of your healing but also support your transition to further care at our residential treatment center.
Professional detox treatment may be appropriate for anyone overcoming any kind of addiction. However, it is most beneficial for those with severe addictions or whose withdrawal symptoms can be challenging when ceasing the use of drugs or alcohol.
Those who experience difficult withdrawal, have attempted to decrease or stop their use of drugs or alcohol in the past but have been unsuccessful, or who are living with multiple challenges such as substance abuse and a mental health disorder in dual diagnosis can all benefit most from a professional detox program.
Lastly, those living with substance use disorder and finding themselves unable to decrease or address their use of addictive substances due to persistent urges, cravings, or other challenges can benefit from a professional detox program to take their first step toward sobriety while being supported during this difficult time. Working with an addiction and mental health professional to challenge urges and cravings and distance yourself from environments that may not be conducive to sober healing can all be instrumental when overcoming alcohol use, opioid use disorder, heroin use, and many other challenges.
At Thrive Treatment℠ we accept most private insurance plans and we are in network with Cigna, Optum, First Health, and Anthem Blue Cross. Additional payment options are available so don’t hesitate to give us a call so we can get you the help that you need.

While a necessary part of effective treatment for substance abuse, detox is difficult and uncomfortable. There is no replacement for an effective professional detox program. Detox can be when symptoms of alcohol and drug withdrawal can be at their most intense and uncomfortable, and having professional support, therapy, or medical detox treatment services to provide medication can be necessary for successfully navigating this difficult time.
Likewise, being in a safe and sober-curated environment can be paramount to preventing relapse during this first step into sobriety and healing. Removing yourself from stress and reminders of past use, having support overcoming withdrawal symptoms, and being able to transition to further care while maintaining your sobriety are all advantages of professional detox that cannot be replicated at home.
Thrive Treatment is committed to this continuum of care, offering not just professional detox treatment options but a residential treatment program, partial hospitalization program, and outpatient treatment, and working in tandem with The Last House, a sober living community to help you through each stage of your recovery.
Recognizing the signs and symptoms of addiction is the first step in taking action and committing to a detox treatment program at Thrive Treatment. Some signs that professional detox may be necessary include:
Loved ones voicing concerns about your drinking or drug use can also be a major sign of an unhealthy and dangerous relationship with addictive substances. However, the best way to determine the right program for you is to talk to a professional honestly about your use of addictive substances, expectations of their use, and personal goals. The professionals at Thrive Treatment can help you understand the role of detox and how it can affect your life, goals, and more.
Knowing what to expect when you take your first step into detox treatment can help you commit to change and sobriety right from the beginning. Detox can be difficult and uncomfortable, with alcohol and drug withdrawal symptoms, mental health needs, and much more all being a part of this important change. Typical detox programs typically last from a few days or a week up to about two weeks in more severe situations. We at Thrive Treatment can always help you through this stage of healing on your journey to a sober life.
Withdrawal is difficult. Our detox treatment program comes equipped with 24/7 supervision and access to dedicated addiction recovery professionals to help you monitor withdrawal symptoms and manage their effects on your daily life. From emotional support to medical detox practices and medication to manage the effects of specific symptoms, we provide a robust support network to ensure that you can navigate detox successfully and transition to further levels of care.
Education is a major part of healing, and our treatment services also provide education in a comfortable and sympathetic environment to understand how addiction affects the body, mind, and daily life of those it impacts. We also help you explore the role of mental health disorders in your recovery to overcoming dual diagnosis. For some, mental health disorders can inform the use of drugs or alcohol as a coping mechanism, while others may experience increased feelings of anxiety, depression, and stress as a result of addiction. Addiction and mental health disorders are closely connected, and support in overcoming co-occurring disorders and their challenges in tandem is paramount for effective healing and release prevention.
Your recovery journey will be unique, and you will have your own unique experiences, goals, and challenges in overcoming addiction, even at your first step into detox. At Thrive Treatment, we are prepared to build a treatment program to address your specific challenges and goals, with dedicated strategies to help you manage withdrawal and the stress of addiction and recovery in a way that resonates with your healing path. Combining effective therapies like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) with experiential healing opportunities and medical support, we can work with you to find your best practices.

Thrive Treamtent’s dedicated professionals are prepared to help you take your first step in overcoming many different forms of addiction, including:
Alcohol and drug withdrawal is the first major hurdle for many, and it can be difficult to overcome without the right support and preparation. Withdrawal symptoms can be intense and can compromise the sobriety of even those truly dedicated to healing. Knowing what to expect and how Thrive Treatment can help you navigate these symptoms can help you overcome this hurdle in your successful healing journey.
Common alcohol and drug withdrawal symptoms include:
Withdrawal comes with a myriad of physical and emotional effects, and it can all feel overwhelming. In some cases, hallucinations are possible, further complicating the situation. Having access to support during this time to understand these effects and provide effective care to overcome them is paramount to maintaining sobriety in detox.
The treatment services at Thrive Treatment can help you overcome the challenges of detox and begin a truly transformative life free from alcohol or drug use. While there can still be stress, embracing the advantages of professional detox treatment services can challenge substance dependence and help you begin your life of sobriety.
Each of our detox programs is medically supervised to address your unique needs and challenges throughout your stay. We can also provide medication to address specific withdrawal symptoms to help prevent relapse while transitioning to further levels of care and developing effective coping strategies.
Being in a sober, curated space away from the stress of daily life and opportunities to engage in drugs or alcohol can be necessary during this time. However, our supportive environment is also filled with sympathetic and understanding peers and professionals available to make you feel accepted and safe during detox. This can also help normalize and destigmatize ideas like addiction recovery and healing, helping you commit to your own alcohol and drug rehabilitation without feeling judged or isolated.
No two journeys overcoming drug or alcohol addiction are the same. Thrive Treatment embraces your personalized needs to help you build a treatment program that works for you. Talking about your needs and expectations during your intake interview and regular meetings to discuss the most effective practices is always a part of your personalized journey with us.
Recovery and sobriety is an evolving journey, and detox is just the beginning. However, it is also the basis for creating lasting sobriety. The education and support found in professional detox and at any stage of recovery with Thrive Treatment is not something that can be replicated at home. It can be instrumental in creating a solid foundation from which to build your new sober identity, goals, and lifestyle in recovery.
Completing a detox program at Thrive Treatment is a major accomplishment but not the end of your journey. We can help you transition to your next level of care by providing:
It is common for those who have completed any level of care to continue to experience stress and challenges to their sobriety. Urges and cravings are still common, and new triggers and stresses may arise. At Thrive Treatment, we offer a robust aftercare program to ensure you always have access to our accepting and effective sober community at any point during your rehabilitation. Whether you are committing to our residential treatment center or continuing to engage in effective outpatient treatment with us, our supportive professionals and community are always close by to help you maintain your sober changes that all started in detox.
