It's nice to have a faith-based program to go to. It really helped a lot to surrender all my problems to God and trust in him. I felt like I really progressed a lot. The only thing I didn't like was that the house was not that comfortable.
About A New Beginning
A New Beginning provides substance addiction treatment in Florence, Alabama. The team takes pride in having a safe, comfortable setting that encourages the resources women need to make a full recovery from addiction.
More Than Therapy
Their facility doesn’t only offer the traditional methods for substance use treatment. They provide guests with the basics and additional educational options, like anger management, grief and trauma assistance, and certified parenting classes. The goal is to help women have all the resources to start a fresh life with sobriety.
One of the features of their program is relapse prevention. This service helps women avoid some of the temptations that may present after treatment and recognize substance use triggers that may have led to addiction.
Prevention and Awareness Classes
Along with the educational classes for recovery, they also have HIV and AIDS awareness and prevention classes. Many people with addiction issues use intravenous drugs and these classes can help guests understand more about the dangers that come with that method.
They teach life skills that may look like budgeting, healthy eating, and how to deal with stressful situations when they arise. Life skills training can help women become more self-sufficient and have better confidence levels.
A New Beginning also has deep ties to the community with local partners, like the Community Action of Northwest Alabama, the Food Bank of North Alabama, and the United Way of Northwest Alabama.
The team at A New Beginning wants you to know that your mistakes don’t define who you are and that you can make positive changes that help you overcome addiction for good.

I stayed here for a few months and I didn't feel welcomed at all compared to how they welcomed other clients into the house. I didn't have my glasses or contacts with me and I kept telling them I was legally blind but they brushed me off like they weren't hearing what I was saying and I got wrote up for missing a tiny hair in the laundry room losing my phone privileges. Lucy who is the one over the program jumped all over me in group for holding the reading material up to my face where I could see the words to read along and when I tried to explain i was legally blind she blew me off. It took a long while but I finally got to the eye doctor and they had to explain to them I was telling the truth. It got to the point that I felt singled out and bullied by Lucy. When I opened up about something traumatic from my childhood she out right said "Bullshit! I call bullshit when I see it!" I told her to go call some of my family members and ask them because one of my triggers is being told I'm not being truthful when I am! I had to say I was an alcoholic at AA meetings which was a lie. I'm giving 2 stars One for Angie and one for Amanda because they were professional and caring. One night over a misunderstanding Lucy got right in my face in an aggressive way like she wanted to fight me and it took every ounce of control in me not to physically fight her. As long as Lucy wasn't around I was fine. Her temper was terrible and unprofessional and I felt singled out. They also told me if I left i would be charged with escape which was a lie. I'm thankful for what I learned there I'm applying it to everyday life but her behavior was very uncalled for unprofessional, and disrespectful. Her nickname is "Lucifer "

I never thought this day would come. I am and will forever be greatful for the help they gave her. She had be to at least 3 other faculties and she didn't last a week. She's going on 7months now.

Levels of Care
Inpatient Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.
Sober Living Homes Sober Living Houses (SLHs), aka sober homes or halfway houses, are safe, substance-free, supportive living facilities for those recovering from substance abuse. Ideal for those who've just been through inpatient or outpatient treatment, SLHs are supervised environments with rules that support sobriety, such as curfews, shared chores, and therapeutic meetings. Residents are also often trained on life skills and coping skills to make it easier to transition into society. SLHs also provide a strong sense of community that can lead to the kind of deep and lasting connections with other sober individuals that supports a new, healthy lifestyle.
12-Step 12-step programs are addiction recovery models based on Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). A number of substance abuse programs (including some drug and alcohol rehab centers) use the 12 steps as a basis for treatment. Beginning steps involve admitting powerlessness over the addiction and creating a spiritual basis for recovery. Middle steps including making direct amends to those who've been hurt by the addiction, and the final step is to assist others in addiction recovery in the same way. 12-Step offshoots including Narcotics Anonymous (NA), Cocaine Anonymous (CA), Dual Recovery Anonymous (DRA), Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous (SLAA) and Gamblers Anonymous (GA).
Treatments
The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.
Drug rehab in Alabama provides medical or psychotherapeutic treatment for drug dependency. Methods of treatment often include a combination of medication, counseling, and recreational therapies.
Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.
A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.
Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.
Programs
Adult Program
Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.
Young Adult Program
Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.
Clinical Services
Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.
In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.
Life skills trainings involve all the skills a person must have in order to function successfully in the world. These include time management, career guidance, money management, and effective communication. Truly successful addiction recovery is based on the ability to not only live substance-free, but to thrive. Life skills teaches the practical necessities of functioning in society, which sets clients up for success in life, and therefore sobriety.
Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.
