In addition to treatment, there are a number of addiction recovery resources in the Olympia area. For instance, Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous are both available, and they have helped millions of people recover worldwide. Families can find the help and support they need through Al-Anon and Alateen.
Though we are not affiliated with these programs, we know their value and how they have helped addicts recover. This guide offers information on them and the different meetings that take place on a weekly basis in Olympia. It also includes everything a person might need to know if they are considering going to treatment.
The Olympia area offers several NA meetings all week long.

Even though there is so much research to support 12-Step programs, they are not the right choice for everyone. Some people need a higher level of care, and this is especially true for those who have never been to rehab before. AA and NA do provide peer support, but the professional aspect of recovery is absent completely. This is just due to the nature of these programs.
That is why it is important to consider going to drug and alcohol treatment as the first step in recovery. Some people may find that they need to go through detox, depending on the type of addiction they suffer from. Detoxing will help them get through withdrawal, and possibly avoid some of the complications that can occur when people stop using.
Afterwards, continuing on to rehab is critical because it is important to address the psychological aspect of the addiction. Uncovering the root cause and treating it is often the only hope a person has if they want to be successful long-term.
According to the SAMHSA treatment locator tool, there are 13 different facilities that offer drug and alcohol rehab in the Olympia area. That includes every program within a 5-mile radius of the city. When the search distance is widened, there are more than 40 of them within a 25-mile radius.
It is good for people to know that there are options. But those who are interested should not choose a program simply because it is close to home. They should always do their research to make sure they pick one that is targeted to meet their needs.
At Ashwood Recovery, we offer an outpatient rehab program that is designed to offer our clients personalized help for their addictions. We recognize the fact that every addiction is different. Likewise, people recover in various ways. That is why we have put together a program that is as varied as possible.
We offer intensive outpatient treatment and partial hospitalization for those who need flexible treatment options. We also have a more traditional outpatient program for those who are appropriate for that level of care.
For those who live in Washington State, we actually have two outpatient programs that may be more conveniently located. Northpoint Seattle has one location in Seattle. Their program is very similar to ours and they offer high quality care that mimics our own.
There are some cases in which an inpatient program is absolutely necessary. For those individuals, we highly recommend our own Northpoint Washington for treatment.
At Northpoint Washington, they offer both drug rehab and detox, as well as a quality alcoholism treatment program. These types of care include everything a patient needs to recover from both the physical and the psychological aspects of their addiction.
Their inpatient program lasts for 28 days, and that includes any time the patient spends in detox. Upon completion, patients are usually referred to an outpatient program to continue working on recovering.
Ashwood Recovery’s closest facility to the Olympia area is just under eight hours away. For many people, this is the perfect distance to allow them to start over and begin a new life. They can take the time they need to truly focus on recovering.
We offer one of the best drug and alcohol rehab programs in the region. Of course, our services also include detoxification, which is often necessary when someone wants to stop using. When these two types of treatment are combined, people have a much better chance of being successful.
