But not everyone has the desire for professional treatment. Because of that, these individuals often believe that there is nothing they can do to recover. We want them to know that is not true at all.
There are many peer support groups that can provide addicts and alcoholics with help to recover. 12-Step groups like Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous have helped millions of people around the world to be successful. Also, families with addicted loved ones can get a tremendous amount of support through Al-Anon and Alateen.
We are not affiliated with these organizations, but we do believe in them. Everyone should consider professional treatment, but for those who cannot, these offer an excellent alternative. That is why they are included in this guide to the addiction recovery resources in the Issaquah area.
Nestled in beautiful Boise, ID, Ashwood Recovery is approximately 500 miles from Issaquah. Our outpatient drug and alcohol rehab facility is fully accredited, and has the staff and programs to maximize your chances of attaining and maintaining sobriety. We also offer in-state options as well for those looking to stay closer to home.

It is easy to feel alone when battling an addiction. It may seem like no one can understand what you are going through. As a result, the temptation may arise to try and wage the battle against it on your own. This is a mistake that many addicts and alcoholics fall prey to, and usually wind up back where they started.
One of the best forms of assistance in the ongoing battle for sobriety is the different support groups and recovery meetings found in your local area. Most of these resources have an approach based on faith, usually in the form of a 12-step program. This gives a participant the opportunity to get to the root of the addiction, rather than just address the outlying symptoms. There are also plenty of support meetings available to friends and family members of alcoholics and drug addicts.
Alcoholics Anonymous has long been the benchmark when it comes to tackling alcohol addiction. For over eight decades, AA has been helping millions of people the world over struggling with an alcohol addiction to regain control over their lives, and improve its quality dramatically. There are no preconditions to attending an AA meeting, other than a sincere and serious resolve to put your addiction to bed for good.Â

With over 67,000 meetings held each week, in 139 different countries, Narcotics Anonymous is the leading resource for those battling drug addiction.

Friends or loved ones of an alcoholic or drug addict are not immune to the pressures caused by the disease. At times, in fact, it may seem like caring for someone with a serious addiction is almost as hard as having the addiction itself. If these brave souls are not careful, their lives can be overwhelmed. This can result in not only trouble with providing meaningful support, it can also lead to a complete collapse of their own life.Â
The answer for friends and family of addicts and alcoholics seeking help and support is Al-Anon. Al-Anon provides a balanced atmosphere perfect for helping people open up about their struggles, without feeling embarrassed or shy. Every person attending understands what each other is going through, so no one is judgmental regardless of what is shared.Â
While the choices for Al-Anon meetings in Issaquah are somewhat slim, there are still some available.

Rather than attend an Al-Anon meeting, friends and family of drug addicts should check out Nar Anon. While these two programs are similar, Nar Anon focuses on the unique challenges and hardships present when the abused substance is drugs of any kind.

While Al-Anon and Nar Anon are good resources for adults, they are many times not a good fit for younger people. Kids and young adults have a unique challenge in front of them when faced with a friend or family member with an alcohol addiction. As a result, a different atmosphere is needed to make these impressionable people feel comfortable enough to tell their story.Â
Alateen provides this atmosphere, and has a focus that applies directly to younger generations. These meetings are made up of fellow youngsters, all of which are in similar situations. No child will feel out of place baring their sole in an Alateen meeting.Â
Alateen does not offer any meetings in the immediate vicinity of Issaquah. However, there are a few available in nearby Bellevue and Seattle.

Group name:Â West Seattle Alateen

Rather than relying on faith as the cornerstone of your recovery, you may prefer something based a little more on science. Most 12-step programs center their meetings around a higher power, and other tenets of personal faith. While this is a good foundation for many people, others can see better results attending something a little different.Â
SMART, or Self-Management And Recovery Training, provides that different approach with a 4-step program applicable to all types of addictions. Tools and skills are developed that have proven to be immensely effective when it comes to battling urges and cravings.Â
SMART meetings can be found within driving distance of Issaquah.

Even though there are great reasons to attend a 12-Step group, that is often not the best place to begin recovering. For those who have never been through a professional treatment program before, they may find that they need more support.
Going through a quality alcohol and drug addiction treatment program can be so beneficial. People have the chance to work with experts who know exactly how to treat addictions. They can learn so much from them, including how to avoid relapsing and how to live without substances.
There is one alcohol and drug rehab center in the City of Issaquah, according to the SAMHSA treatment locator tool. It is an outpatient program. Of course, there are additional options that are available further away from the city.
There are a total of 15 addiction recovery facilities located within 10 miles of Issaquah. They are a mix of both inpatient and outpatient programs.
At Ashwood Recovery, we have one of the best outpatient rehab programs in the State of Idaho. We offer three levels of care to meet the individual needs of our clients. Every person who contact us will receive a professional recommendation for the level our staff feels is appropriate.
We offer a traditional outpatient rehab as well as partial hospitalization and an intensive outpatient program. That way, we can design our clients’ treatment plans to include the exact services they need.
Nothing is as important to us as our clients’ recovery goals. We are dedicated to offering personalized services to help everyone we serve to be successful.
Those who live in Washington State may be interested in finding an outpatient program located close to home. For these individuals, we highly recommend our program at Northpoint Seattle.
At Northpoint Seattle, their outpatient rehab is very similar to ours. They also offer the same three levels of care, and close to the same services that we offer at Ashwood Recovery.
There is no doubt that going to rehab can be expensive. This is exactly what keeps many people from pursuing professional treatment as an option. But what they do not realize is that those costs do not have to come out of their own pockets.
All health insurance companies are required to offer healthcare benefits to help cover the costs of detox and rehab. This is due to the Affordable Care Act, which was signed into law in 2010.
People with health insurance may find that their treatment is covered in full. This is especially true for those who choose outpatient rehab. Others may need to pay a small co-pay, but the amount will be minimal.
Not every person who struggles with alcohol or drug addiction may benefit from the program we offer. Just as each person is different, so is their accompanying addiction. What is effective for one person may not get the job done for the next. This makes it of extreme importance for you to contact us and find out all the information you need as early as possible.Â
There are some distinct advantages to attending a recovery program out of state. Situations or people that are negative influences are left far behind. There is even the benefit of the reduced chance of running into someone you know.Â
