Welcome to Pecan Haven, your sanctuary for recovery and renewal from alcohol addiction in Monroe, LA. At Pecan Haven, we understand the complexities of alcohol addiction and offer comprehensive treatment solutions to help individuals reclaim their lives in a supportive and healing environment.

 

Understanding Alcohol Addiction

Alcohol addiction, or alcoholism, is more than just drinking too much. It’s a chronic condition characterized by the compulsive use of alcohol despite adverse effects on health, relationships, and responsibilities. Many people mistakenly believe they can stop drinking at will, not realizing the psychological hold alcohol has. It’s one of the toughest addictions to overcome, largely due to its widespread acceptance and availability.

At Pecan Haven, we approach alcohol addiction with the respect and seriousness it demands, providing our clients with the tools and support necessary for effective recovery.

Medical Detox

Medical detox is a crucial first step in treating alcohol addiction at Pecan Haven Addiction Recovery Center.

During medical detox, patients are closely monitored by our healthcare professionals who can provide medications to help mitigate withdrawal symptoms, reduce cravings, and address any complications that arise. The goal is to ensure that you achieve physical stability in a supportive, controlled environment, which prepares you for the next stages of recovery, including therapy and counseling.
