Alcohol Addiction Treatment At Spring Hill

Our Comprehensive Approach To Alcohol Addiction Recovery

Spring Hill’s campus in the mountains of central Massachusetts offers a peaceful, natural setting and retreat-like experience for recovering from alcohol addiction. We focus on evidence-based treatment options and building a community of support for long-term recovery.

We also provide a seamless treatment experience for our clients, with connections to nearby detox centers and outpatient treatment as required, including options for retaining your same care team throughout.

Alcohol Detox

Alcohol withdrawal can involve serious, even life-threatening withdrawal symptoms and complications at times, which is one reason why medical detox is often recommended as a first step. Our clients may begin treatment at our sister facility in Canton, MA, Bedrock Recovery Center, or another treatment center where medically monitored detoxification is provided, offering 24-hour medical support and supervision.

The length and severity of the withdrawal process can vary according to factors such as:

• how long you’ve been using alcohol
• how much alcohol you drink
• your age
• co-occurring mental health disorders
• genetic factors
• previous attempts to stop using alcohol

Clients may receive medications to avoid or ease withdrawal symptoms and cravings, including beginning medication-assisted treatment (MAT) at this time, in addition to receiving other medical care and support.

Once you have stabilized, we will arrange your transportation to Spring Hill in Ashby, where you can begin the next steps in recovery through our residential program. People with milder addictions may begin treatment at our outpatient facility in Quincy, MA, instead.

Spring Hill’s Residential Rehab Program

Shortly after you have arrived and settled in at Spring Hill, our care team will begin getting to know you and discussing your treatment needs, preferences, and goals for recovery, all of which will be addressed through an individualized treatment plan.

Our residential treatment program offers a group therapy-based curriculum and other evidence-based recovery methods, including:

• Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)
• Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT)
• Medication-assisted treatment (MAT)
• Community reinforcement approach (CRA)
• Dual diagnosis treatment
• Case management
• Family therapy and psychoeducation
• Aftercare planning

Peer support groups such as Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and SMART Recovery are also available, along with holistic treatment options like music therapy, yoga, and meditation. A wide variety of wellness services and recreation activities contribute to our whole-person approach to recovery.

Outpatient Treatment Programs In Quincy, MA

After completing our residential treatment program, many clients will transition into an outpatient program at our Quincy, MA, outpatient center, allowing them to retain the same care team during ongoing care. People with milder addictions may begin treatment here.

Types of outpatient treatment we offer in Quincy include:

• Day treatment/partial hospitalization programs (PHP)
• Intensive outpatient programs (IOP)
• Standard outpatient programs (OP)

We can also help connect clients with partnering sober living homes in the area for a supportive, substance-free place to live while completing outpatient treatment.

Learn More About Alcohol Addiction

Alcohol is the most widely used substance in the United States, and alcohol use disorder (AUD) is the most common substance use disorder.

When someone is unable to control their drinking, including reducing how much or how often they drink, they may have an AUD. This chronic disease is characterized by a physical and/or psychological dependence on alcohol, which often develops through a pattern of frequent, heavy drinking.

The following are some common signs of AUD and alcohol addiction:

• being unable to stop drinking
• having to drink more over time to feel the same effects (increased tolerance)
• relying on alcohol to get through the day
• constantly thinking about getting or drinking alcohol
• losing interest in non-drinking activities that you used to enjoy
• continuing to drink alcohol despite negative effects on physical or mental health
• hiding or lying about your alcohol use
• getting into legal problems as a result of your drinking
• experiencing withdrawal symptoms if you don’t use alcohol
