EXPLORE OUR SERVICES

Our Alcohol Addiction Treatment Programs

Alcohol use disorder affects everyone differently. Some may need intensive medical detox, while others may benefit from outpatient counseling and support. At Wavecrest, we offer a full continuum of care tailored to your needs.

Alcohol Detox

Detoxing from alcohol without medical supervision can be dangerous—even life-threatening. Our 24/7 medically monitored detox program helps manage withdrawal symptoms safely and comfortably. Medications may be used to reduce cravings and prevent complications.

Inpatient (Residential) Alcohol Rehab

For individuals needing a structured, immersive setting, our inpatient rehab program provides round-the-clock care. With therapy, group support, medical oversight, and holistic wellness activities, residential treatment gives you the time and space to focus entirely on recovery.

Outpatient Alcohol Treatment

If you are transitioning from inpatient rehab or need flexible care that allows you to continue with school, work, or family, outpatient options may be right for you. We offer Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) and Partial Hospitalization Programs (PHP) designed for ongoing support.

Dual Diagnosis Treatment

Alcohol addiction often co-occurs with mental health challenges such as depression, anxiety, or trauma. Our dual diagnosis program treats both conditions simultaneously to ensure lasting recovery and improved mental health.

Relapse Prevention and Aftercare

Recovery doesn’t stop at discharge. We create individualized aftercare plans that include alumni support, continued therapy, peer groups, and community resources to keep you strong in your sobriety.
