Freedom from addiction requires affirming care.
Recovery is possible when we feel as authentic & congruent as possible. Our trauma-informed approach with a comfortable medical detox will make you feel at home.
The LGBTQ community faces unique and significant challenges when it comes to addiction, often stemming from societal stigma, discrimination, and a lack of understanding from mainstream treatment facilities. These challenges can lead to higher rates of alcoholism and substance use disorders within the community, as individuals may turn to substances to cope with trauma, marginalization, and identity-related stress. Pride Detox is the ideal place for LGBTQ individuals seeking recovery from alcoholism or substance use addiction. Our facility offers an affirming, inclusive, and trauma-informed environment specifically designed to meet the needs of LGBTQ clients. Our experienced team provides compassionate, evidence-based treatments that honor each person's identity and lived experiences. At Pride Detox, we ensure that clients feel safe, understood, and supported as they navigate their recovery journey, recognizing that overcoming addiction is closely linked to embracing one's authentic self and achieving true healing.
