Honoring Your Service with Comprehensive, Military-Informed Addiction Recovery
At Refine Recovery, we understand that veterans face unique challenges when seeking addiction treatment. Our Beverly Hills facility provides a respectful, military-informed environment where you can heal from substance use disorders while honoring your service and sacrifice. We believe that effective addiction treatment for veterans must address both the visible and invisible wounds of service, including combat trauma, military sexual trauma, and the challenges of transitioning to civilian life.
Research shows that veterans experience substance use disorders at significantly higher rates than the general population. According to the Department of Veterans Affairs, approximately 1 in 10 veterans has a substance use disorder, with rates even higher among those who served in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Several factors contribute to elevated substance use rates among veterans:
Refine Recovery’s treatment philosophy centers on creating an environment where veterans feel understood, respected, and honored. Our approach includes:
Our clinical team receives specialized training in military culture, understanding the values, experiences, and challenges unique to service members. We recognize that effective treatment requires more than just clinical expertise—it demands deep respect for military service and understanding of military trauma.
Many veterans have experienced trauma related to their service, including combat exposure, military sexual trauma, or moral injury. Our trauma-informed approach recognizes these experiences and integrates specialized healing modalities into the recovery process. Research published in the Journal of Traumatic Stress demonstrates the effectiveness of trauma-informed care for veteran populations in substance abuse treatment.
Through our family therapy programs, we work to repair and strengthen relationships with spouses, children, and support networks that may have been strained by addiction and service-related challenges. We understand the unique stressors military families face and provide specialized support.
We utilize proven treatment modalities that have been specifically adapted for veteran populations:
Our cognitive behavioral therapy program helps veterans identify and modify negative thought patterns while developing healthy coping strategies for both addiction and trauma symptoms.
Our dialectical behavior therapy program focuses on emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills, particularly valuable for veterans who have experienced trauma or struggle with emotional volatility.
Our group therapy services include veteran-specific groups where service members can connect with others who share similar experiences and understand the unique challenges of military life and transition.
Located in Beverly Hills, Refine Recovery is more than just a treatment center—it’s a sanctuary for healing where veterans can recover with dignity and respect. Our approach to addiction treatment is deeply personal, combining medical expertise with military cultural understanding and a veteran-focused philosophy.
Each veteran receives personalized individual therapy sessions with clinicians trained in military trauma and veteran issues. These sessions address both substance use and service-related concerns, helping veterans develop a strong sense of post-service identity while building recovery skills.
Our specialized process groups provide a safe space for veterans to explore their relationships with substances while discussing service-related challenges, moral injury, and transition difficulties. These groups foster community building and peer support among those who have served.
Our health and wellness treatment includes mindfulness practices that help veterans manage hypervigilance and anxiety. Our daily intentions and mindfulness group provides tools for managing PTSD symptoms and building emotional resilience.
Our life skills development program addresses practical concerns that veterans face, including civilian employment challenges, navigating VA benefits, relationship building, and developing a sense of purpose outside the military.
Veterans often present with co-occurring mental health conditions alongside substance use disorders. Our dual diagnosis treatment addresses:
According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, integrated treatment that addresses both substance use and mental health simultaneously produces the best outcomes for veteran populations.
We provide specialized treatment for substances commonly used by veterans:
Our alcohol rehab program addresses the cultural and social factors that contribute to problem drinking within military communities, including binge drinking culture and alcohol as stress relief.
Our opioid rehab program recognizes that many veterans developed dependencies through legitimate medical treatment for service-related injuries, providing compassionate, non-judgmental care.
Our prescription drug addiction treatment addresses the complex relationship between chronic pain management and prescription drug dependency in veteran populations.
Our stimulant addiction treatment addresses the use of stimulants to combat depression, fatigue, or to enhance performance, common issues among veterans.
All staff members receive comprehensive training in veteran competency, including:
We facilitate connections between veteran clients and alumni, creating a network of support that extends beyond treatment. This veteran peer support network is crucial for long-term recovery success and provides ongoing accountability and understanding.
Our relapse prevention therapy specifically addresses triggers that may be unique to veterans:
