About Adult Children of Alcoholics

Adult Children of Alcoholics (Al-Anon), located in San Diego, California, provides 12-step meetings to individuals struggling with codependency. It's important to note that this is not an alcohol-in-drug rehab program but instead provides support to individuals struggling due to an addict's behavior in their life.

Adult Children of Alcoholics (Al Anon) functions on an outpatient basis. This is a free, peer-led program available to all individuals who feel their life is unmanageable due to their codependent nature. It is customary for individuals to obtain a sponsor, work the steps, sponsor newcomers, and give back to their local meetings by being of service. If a person wants to obtain professional help, they are encouraged to seek mental health counseling outside of the 12-step meetings.

Adult Children of Alcoholics (Al Anon) do not accept insurance. If a person is interested in using their insurance for any type of treatment, they are encouraged to contact the insurance carrier before starting treatment because out-of-network benefits may vary from plan to plan.

Medical briefcase icon Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient

Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.

12-step icon12-Step

12-step programs are addiction recovery models based on Alcoholics Anonymous (AA).

Middle steps including making direct amends to those who've been hurt by the addiction, and the final step is to assist others in addiction recovery in the same way. 12-Step offshoots including Narcotics Anonymous (NA), Cocaine Anonymous (CA), Dual Recovery Anonymous (DRA), Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous (SLAA) and Gamblers Anonymous (GA).

Heart icon Treatment

alcohol iconAlcoholism

The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.

Whether a marriage or other committed relationship, an intimate partnership is one of the most important aspects of a person's life. Drug and alcohol addiction affects both members of a couple in deep and meaningful ways, as does rehab and recovery. Couples therapy and other couples-focused treatment programs are significant parts of exploring triggers of addiction, as well as learning how to build healthy patterns to support ongoing sobriety.

Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.
