About this Facility

Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) -- San Bernardino is a public community substance abuse support group in San Bernardino, California. They provide outpatient support services to adults living with drug and alcohol addiction. They have specialized groups based on age, gender, and cultural backgrounds.

AA groups are community-based support groups that provide support and education to members through peer support groups. Clients participate in the group by offering advice and support to their peers while also working with a designated sponsor for individual support and mentorship. These groups do not provide medical services but may refer clients to treatment programs for additional support.

12-step groups are a structured method of helping clients find sobriety by progressing through 12 stages of personal development. These steps teach clients vital life and coping skills and how self-compassion, forgiveness, relapse prevention, personal accountability, and spirituality can support ongoing recovery.

AA groups do not require payment to participate. However, clients seeking help from a professional treatment program (which often accepts payment from private insurance plans, like Humana, Aetna, Ambetter, ComPsych, Anthem, and others) should confirm coverage before enrolling, as out-of-network benefits may vary.

Alcoholism

Alcoholism, or alcohol use disorder (AUD), is defined by alcohol dependence. This is a state the body reaches when it experiences withdrawal symptoms in the absence of alcohol. A person who has AUD craves alcohol and continues to drink despite adverse consequences. Because withdrawing from alcohol can pose health risks, individuals with AUD should seek professional alcohol rehab in California to overcome their alcohol addiction. This process typically involves medical detox, rehabilitation, and maintenance.

Drug Addiction

Drug rehab in California teaches participants constructive ways to stay clean and sober. Treatment revolves around helping individuals stop using the substance they are addicted to and learn healthy habits to avoid relapse.

Substance Abuse

In California, substance abuse treatment programs can help individuals with any type of substance use disorders and co-occurring conditions. These rehab programs typically encompass various levels of care, including medically assisted detox, intensive outpatient, outpatient, residential rehab, and partial hospitalization. You can expect clinicians to utilize evidence-based therapies like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), and mindfulness to help you achieve and sustain your recovery. The rehab’s clinical team can provide a comprehensive assessment to determine the appropriate level of care and medical support you may need.

12-Step

Participants engaged in 12 step programs receive intensive peer coaching (sponsorship) and community support. Spiritual development as a means of achieving psychological and emotional healing and growth is the cornerstone of 12 step recovery, but religious affiliations are not required. Meetings are free, anonymous, and open to the public, though specialized formats are available, including groups for seniors, teens, and family members. Evening, night, and day meetings are conducted year-round in most communities.

Group Therapy

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.
