Evidence-Based Treatment and Personalized Care

Las Cruces Recovery Center in Las Cruces, New Mexico, is a comprehensive facility dedicated to addiction treatment. We offer evidence-based care, meaning our treatment methods are grounded in scientific research and proven to be effective through clinical trials and data analysis. The clear evidence supporting our approach ensures that our treatment methods truly work.

We understand that every individual entering addiction treatment is unique. Each person brings their own personality, family history, and perspective. Likewise, the journey that leads to addiction is different for everyone, even for those struggling with the same substances.

For addiction treatment to be truly effective, it must be tailored to the individual. A one-size-fits-all approach simply doesn’t work. That’s why our experienced medical professionals and therapists develop personalized treatment plans designed to address each client’s specific triggers and stressors. At Las Cruces Recovery Center, we are committed to helping every client achieve long-term sobriety by offering care that meets their unique needs.

Let us Help You on Your Path to Recovery

When struggling with drugs or alcohol, it can often feel like there’s no clear way forward. This sense of hopelessness is especially overwhelming when trying to face substance use disorder on your own.

Thankfully, you don’t have to walk that path alone. At Las Cruces Recovery Center, we guide you toward taking the right path. With our evidence-based, personalized, and compassionate approach to treating substance use disorders, we can help you reclaim both your sobriety and your life. Our detoxification and rehabilitation programs, along with our commitment to continuous care, ensure that you have the support you need every step of the way.

Therapy Approaches to Treatment

At Las Cruces Recovery Center, we create individualized treatment plans that are tailored to each client’s specific needs. By offering both group therapy and one-on-one counseling sessions, we work to uncover the root causes of addiction. Once we address and treat these underlying issues, our clients are set firmly on the path to lasting recovery from drug and alcohol addiction. Our therapeutic approach may include the following:

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

ACT challenges clients to become mindful and stay focused on the present. Part of ACT is deciding to accept thoughts and feelings without judgment. The goal of ACT is to help clients move forward despite difficult emotions. The client is encouraged to put their energy toward healing instead of the negative feelings.

Cognitive-behavioral Therapy (CBT) 

CBT is often used to treat people with addictions. It focuses on the idea that positive behavioral changes will follow if someone can change their negative thoughts about themselves and the world. Clients are encouraged to record their thoughts during the day and pay attention to their negative ones. With a therapist’s help, clients can work on challenging and replacing negative thoughts with positive ones in their daily routines. 

Dialectic Behavior Therapy (DBT) 

DBT includes teaching clients personal and relationship skills. The goal is to teach clients to accept their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. DBT is based on the cognitive behavioral therapy model. Still, it focuses on the emotional and social parts of the client’s lifestyle. 

Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT) 

REBT is a type of CBT. It is based on the concept that clients can change their emotions and behaviors by identifying their irrational beliefs and then challenging them. The irrational beliefs are replaced with rational thoughts.

A Compassionate Approach to Care

Despite the frequent coverage of substance use disorders and addiction in the news, stigma around these issues still persists. Although many experts recognize addiction as a disease, some individuals wrongly believe that those struggling with it simply lack the willpower to stop using their substance of choice.

This stigma often comes with misconceptions, such as:

  • Addiction only affects people from lower socioeconomic backgrounds.
  • It predominantly impacts people of color.
  • Those with addictions are weak or lack moral character.

None of these beliefs are true. Addiction doesn’t discriminate—it can affect anyone, regardless of background or socioeconomic status. Regular use of addictive substances alters the brain at a chemical level, meaning that breaking free from addiction is not a matter of character or willpower alone. Overcoming addiction requires proper treatment, support, and a commitment to recovery.

 

People struggling with addiction need support, and the treatment professionals at an addiction recovery center play a vital role in guiding clients on their healing journey.

Many individuals battling addiction have experienced low self-esteem or trauma in their past. Drugs and alcohol often become a form of emotional escape, a way to numb their pain or overwhelming emotions. As addiction takes hold, they may recognize its harmful effects on their personal and professional lives, yet feel powerless to stop.

At Las Cruces Recovery Center, our addiction counselors understand that empathy is key to effective treatment. Clients respond far better when they are met with understanding and compassion, rather than judgment. We create a non-judgmental environment where every member of our team works to help clients maintain their dignity and self-respect. Our compassionate approach focuses on helping individuals move toward recovery, not punishing them for their struggles.
