What Are the Benefits of a Men's Rehab Program?
When people go to rehab, they each have unique needs. This also applies to the treatment needs between men and women. Gender-specific or men’s substance abuse treatment programs provide many benefits to help you heal and meet your treatment goals. For example:
The opportunity to share difficult experiences
Men in addiction treatment often have difficulty expressing difficult emotions or sharing their experiences related to addiction in a mixed-gender therapy environment. When participating in a co-ed treatment program, they may be reluctant to openly discuss the triggers and traumas that led to their addiction. A gender-specific treatment environment allows men to express and disclose worries and emotions in a rehab setting surrounded by peers who likely share a similar history.
Developing a new and like-minded peer support group
Men with substance use disorder often experience mood changes (including anger and problems with control) at a greater rate than women with substance use disorders. For this reason, men often experience more success in achieving and maintaining lasting sobriety in a gender-specific rehab where therapy addresses these issues while surrounded by other men who can relate to their emotions. Men with a history of aggression in emotional, physical, or sexual abuse situations should always choose a gender-specific addiction treatment program.
Gender-focused problem-solving tools
Women and men typically thrive in different therapeutic environments. Women are often more successful in treatment programs that are open and warmer. Conversely, men generally achieve greater levels of success in a therapeutic environment where sessions are less personal and more focused on problem-solving and behavior modification. Gender-specific rehabs like Hillside Mission consider these treatment considerations when designing their therapy programs.
