Whether you or a loved one is struggling with benzodiazepine dependence, our comprehensive programs offer the medical supervision, therapeutic support, and holistic care needed to overcome addiction safely and sustainably.
Our Approach to Benzodiazepine Treatment
Our treatment model combines medical detox, individual and group therapy, and integrative wellness services. From the first day of admission, clients are supported by a multidisciplinary team that includes physicians, therapists, nurses, and recovery specialists. Together, we help you address both the physical dependence on benzodiazepines and the underlying emotional or psychological issues that contribute to substance use.
We emphasize three key principles in our approach:
Safety
Ensuring detox and withdrawal are medically monitored to prevent complications.
Support
Providing a structured, nurturing environment for healing.
Sustainability
Equipping clients with lifelong coping tools and relapse prevention strategies.
Medication-Assisted Treatment for Benzodiazepine Dependence
Because benzodiazepine withdrawal can be dangerous, especially if stopped abruptly, medical supervision is critical. At Pegasus Treatment Center, we offer medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to ensure a safe and comfortable detox process.
Our experienced medical team uses a gradual tapering method to reduce withdrawal symptoms and minimize discomfort. In some cases, longer-acting medications may be prescribed to stabilize symptoms while your body adjusts. This approach helps prevent seizures, severe anxiety, or rebound insomnia that can occur during withdrawal.
MAT is always combined with counseling and therapy, ensuring that physical stabilization goes hand in hand with emotional and psychological healing. This integrated approach gives clients the best chance for lasting recovery and long-term wellness.
Evidence-Based Therapies for Benzo Addiction
Some of the therapies we offer include:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
Motivational Interviewing (MI)
Trauma-Informed Therapy
Group and Family Therapy
Our therapists use a collaborative approach that empowers clients to take control of their recovery journey. Each session is designed to promote insight, resilience, and personal growth.
Inpatient Rehab for Benzodiazepine Addiction
During inpatient care, clients reside at our New Jersey facility and participate in a full schedule of therapeutic programming. This includes daily group sessions, individual therapy, medication management, and wellness activities such as yoga, meditation, and exercise.
Our inpatient rehab allows clients to step away from daily stressors and triggers while focusing entirely on recovery. The immersive nature of residential care ensures that clients receive continuous medical monitoring, emotional support, and access to clinical care whenever needed.
Inpatient treatment is especially recommended for individuals who:
- Have experienced multiple relapses.
- Are detoxing from high doses of benzodiazepines.
- Have co-occurring mental health disorders.
- Need a stable and supportive environment to recover.
Dual Diagnosis: Treating Benzo Addiction and Mental Health
Our clinical team works to uncover the root causes of addiction, whether related to unmanaged mental health symptoms, trauma, or chronic stress. By treating both the addiction and the co-occurring disorder, clients experience more complete healing and a lower risk of relapse.
Dual diagnosis treatment may include:
- Psychiatric evaluations and medication management.
- Individual and group therapy tailored to co-occurring conditions.
- Holistic therapies to support emotional regulation and stress relief.
This integrated approach ensures that each client receives comprehensive, personalized care that promotes long-term stability and mental wellness.
What to Expect During Benzo Addiction Treatment
- Comprehensive Assessment: Upon arrival, clients undergo a detailed medical and psychological evaluation to develop a personalized care plan.
- Medical Detox: For those physically dependent on benzodiazepines, detoxification is supervised by medical professionals to ensure safety and comfort.
- Therapeutic Programming: Clients participate in a variety of therapy sessions designed to build coping skills, emotional resilience, and self-awareness.
- Holistic Care: Activities such as mindfulness training, art therapy, and fitness are incorporated to promote overall well-being.
- Aftercare Planning: As treatment concludes, our team works with each client to develop a relapse prevention plan and connect them with ongoing resources.
Throughout every stage of recovery, clients are guided by a compassionate team committed to their long-term success.
Aftercare and Relapse Prevention for Long-Term Recovery
Our aftercare services include:
- Outpatient therapy and support groups for continued counseling.
- Relapse prevention education to identify and manage high-risk situations.
- Alumni programs that foster community and accountability.
- Connections to local recovery resources throughout New Jersey.
We also encourage ongoing participation in peer recovery groups and therapy sessions to reinforce the skills learned in treatment. With the right tools and support, long-term recovery from benzodiazepine addiction is achievable.
