Alcohol addiction affects millions of Americans each year, impacting relationships, health, and emotional well-being. At Pegasus, we combine medical care, therapeutic support, and modern comfort to ensure each client receives the highest quality of treatment.
Understanding Alcohol Addiction and Its Effects
- Needing to drink more to feel the same effects
- Experiencing withdrawal symptoms such as sweating, shaking, or anxiety when not drinking
- Drinking despite negative consequences
- Neglecting responsibilities due to alcohol use
- Difficulty controlling the amount or frequency of drinking
Alcohol addiction also increases the risk of serious health conditions, including liver disease, cardiovascular problems, depression, and anxiety. At Pegasus Treatment Center, our multidisciplinary team helps clients heal both the body and mind through personalized care and clinical excellence.
Our Approach to Alcohol Addiction Treatment
Our team of medical professionals, therapists, and support staff create customized treatment plans that address the physical, psychological, and emotional components of addiction. Each plan is rooted in evidence-based methods and tailored to each client’s goals, history, and health needs. Treatment may include:
Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT)
Individual Therapy
Group Therapy
Family Support
Relapse Prevention Planning
Our mission is to empower clients with the tools and support they need to maintain sobriety long after leaving our program.
Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT)
Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) is a key part of alcohol recovery at Pegasus Treatment Center. MAT combines FDA-approved medications with counseling and behavioral therapies to manage cravings, reduce relapse risk, and support long-term sobriety.
Common medications used in alcohol addiction treatment include:
- Naltrexone, which helps reduce the pleasurable effects of alcohol
- Acamprosate, which supports the brain’s recovery from long-term alcohol use
- Disulfiram, which creates an adverse reaction when alcohol is consumed
Our medical team closely monitors each client’s progress, adjusting medications and therapies as needed to ensure the safest and most effective recovery possible.
Evidence-Based Therapies
Therapy plays a central role in successful recovery from alcohol addiction. Pegasus Treatment Center uses evidence-based therapies proven to help clients understand their behaviors, manage triggers, and build healthier coping skills.
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): CBT helps clients recognize negative thought patterns that lead to drinking and replace them with positive, constructive behaviors.
- Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT): DBT focuses on mindfulness, emotional regulation, and distress tolerance, skills essential for maintaining sobriety and managing stress.
Through these therapies, clients gain self-awareness, emotional balance, and confidence in their ability to live alcohol-free.
Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)
Our partial hospitalization program offers intensive daily treatment in a structured, supportive environment. PHP is ideal for individuals who require comprehensive care but do not need 24-hour inpatient supervision. Clients in a partial hospitalization program participate in individual therapy, group sessions, and educational workshops that address relapse prevention, life skills, and stress management. Each day provides a balance of clinical care and holistic recovery experiences in our luxury facility. Our PHP at Pegasus Treatment Center bridges the gap between inpatient and outpatient care, allowing clients to continue progressing toward independence with strong clinical support.
Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)
The intensive outpatient program at Pegasus Treatment Center offers flexible, high-quality treatment for individuals transitioning from higher levels of care or those seeking structured support while maintaining daily responsibilities. IOPs include multiple therapy sessions per week, continued MAT support, and relapse prevention planning. This program allows clients to strengthen coping mechanisms, reinforce recovery skills, and remain connected to a supportive community while rebuilding their lives outside of treatment.
Dual Diagnosis Treatment
Many individuals struggling with alcohol addiction also experience co-occurring mental health disorders such as depression, anxiety, or PTSD. This is known as dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder. Pegasus Treatment Center specializes in treating alcohol addiction and mental health disorders simultaneously. Our clinicians address the root causes of addiction while providing targeted therapies for mental health recovery. Treating both issues together improves outcomes, reduces relapse risk, and helps clients achieve lasting stability. Our dual diagnosis program ensures that clients receive integrated, compassionate care for every aspect of their well-being.
What to Expect During Alcohol Addiction Treatment
- Assessment and intake: Our team evaluates your needs, medical history, and goals to develop a personalized treatment plan.
- Therapy and life skill building: Clients participate in individual and group therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.
- Aftercare planning: Before discharge, we develop a detailed aftercare plan that includes ongoing therapy, support groups, and relapse prevention tools.
From day one, our goal is to provide compassionate, structured care that builds confidence and promotes lasting recovery.
