Private treatment facilities are considered to be the most effective source for treating chemical dependency.
While privately-based programs tend to be more costly, they also provide more professional services, therapy & treatment options than state-funded alcohol treatment programs. Privately based programs usually are residential-based facilities. The patient stays at the facility for the duration of their program. The treatment focus is also individualized to help the patient address their personal struggles with alcoholism.
Private locations also lend to a therapeutic feel as well. It is an environment where you can feel safe, even at home. This type of environment is supportive of you and your sobriety. They help you stay focused on getting well again. There can also be things that need addressing in rehab that is not meant for the entire group to hear. Another advantage to privacy is personal therapy sessions with a licensed professional. You can work through underlying concerns that can be hurting you and forcing you to drink.
