Rehab and Addiction Treatment Programs for Men

Treatment Program Details

Societal expectations and stereotypes can make it difficult for men to live authentic lives and ask for help when they need it. Living up to societal or internal expectations can easily lead to substance abuse, mental health problems or other dependent behaviors. This program, with peer support and a private space for treatment, offers men expert guidance to build the true strength that comes through vulnerability and relationships.

Benefits of Our Men's-Only Substance Abuse Treatment Program

Our men’s treatment program provides a focused environment that caters to the specific needs of men dealing with drug addiction, alcohol addiction and co-occurring mental health issues. This type of gender-specific rehab offers several benefits.

Targeted Treatment

Our men’s rehab program addresses issues like alcohol use, drug abuse and the underlying emotional challenges that are more common in men. By focusing on these specific areas, we are able to offer customized therapy sessions, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and relapse prevention strategies, tailored to men's individual needs.

Peer Support

Our group therapy and support group sessions can be highly effective forms of treatment. The camaraderie within our rehab facility fosters open discussions about drug rehab, alcohol treatment and other shared experiences, helping men build trust and support each other in addiction recovery.

Safe Space for Vulnerability

Men often struggle to express emotions and vulnerability, especially in mixed-gender environments. Our men-only program provides a safe, supportive space within the treatment facility where men can break free from these constraints, work through their emotions, improve mental health and build emotional strength in a way that supports lasting wellness.

Comprehensive Care

From medical detox to inpatient rehab and beyond, our men's rehab program offers a full continuum of care. These levels of care may include dual diagnosis treatment for those struggling with both substance abuse and mental health conditions, as well as access to sober living and aftercare programs for long-term recovery.

Caron’s Approach to Men’s Treatment

Caron’s men’s programs focus on treating the whole person — mind, body, and spirit — through evidence-based therapies like CBT, addiction counseling and motivational interviewing. Our team of board-certified physicians and clinicians create personalized plans to address both substance use disorder and co-occurring issues like anxiety and depression. Family involvement is integral to our approach, helping to foster long-term recovery and stronger relationships.
