IMPROVING ADDICTION TREATMENT & RECOVERY OUTCOMES THROUGH CLIENT-CENTERED, CUTTING-EDGE, INDIVIDUALIZED SOLUTIONS THAT TRANSFORM LIVES.
MAINSTREAM ADDICTION TREATMENT MODELS ARE OUTDATED AND FAILING
According to national statistics, addiction recovery outcomes are typically poor. The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) currently reports the relapse rate to be 40-60%, raised to 50%-90% for opioid addiction.
Globally, over 296 million people struggled with substance abuse in 2021, an increase of almost 25% over the previous decade. The number of people globally who suffer from drug use disorders, meanwhile, has skyrocketed to 39.5 million, almost a 50% increase over the last 10 years.
Global drug overdose deaths are skyrocketing. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) and the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), recent years have seen an estimated 500,000 to 600,000 drug-related deaths annually across the globe. This amounts to approximately 1 person per minute dying of drug overdose worldwide. UNODC World Drug Report 2023 warns of converging crises as illicit drug markets continue to expand. New synthetic, more powerful, and more lethal synthetic drugs are continually being introduced to the global market at an alarming rate. Each new synthetic presents its own nuanced challenges in treatment and recovery. Currently, this is the case with Fentanyl. Fentanyl is ravaging the United States with much of the recovery industry inexperienced in dealing with its specific challenges.
AT RED DOOR LIFE WE HAVE IDENTIFIED THE MANY REASONS WHY MAINSTREAM ADDICTION TREATMENT OUTCOMES ARE SO POOR, AND WE DO THE OPPOSITE:
A MODEL OF RECOVERY, NOT JUST TREATMENT
Mainstream treatment usually only takes into account a client’s presenting symptoms- their model is not designed for deeper, holistic recovery. As they rely on insurance revenue, their model is only designed to house clients and treat their surface-level presenting symptoms. Once a client goes below a certain level of care they do not have the resources to continue helping the client recover. This is a model of treatment, not a model of recovery. This creates a cycle of failure where once a client completes a standardized term of care they must leave, and often they will relapse to be able to come back into the safety and support of a treatment center at a higher level of care.
The hallmarks of ineffective mainstream treatment models with poor recovery outcomes are disconnection, abandonment, punishment, dealing only with the surface issues, disempowering the client, generic care practices with a one-size-fits-all approach, lack of treatment team efficiency & efficacy, prematurely ending treatment before the brain has a chance to heal, failing toprovide an environment that is engaging enough to have clients want to stay, crisis response instead of preventative care, treatment lacks critical dimension– such as critical personal development, finding purpose & sober world re-discovery, and a lack of integration support.
“AT RED DOOR LIFE, WE GO BEYOND THE STATUS QUO AND HAVE CREATED A HOLISTIC APPROACH TO TREATMENT THAT TAKES RECOVERY FURTHER- FROM SOBRIETY TO LIFE TRANSFORMATION. WE IMPROVE ADDICTION TREATMENT & RECOVERY OUTCOMES THROUGH CLIENT-CENTERED, CUTTING-EDGE, INDIVIDUALIZED SOLUTIONS THAT TRANSFORM LIVES.”
AT RED DOOR LIFE, WHAT DOES CLIENT-CENTERED, CUTTING-EDGE, INDIVIDUALIZED SUBSTANCE ABUSE TREATMENT MEAN?
True client-centered, individualized care means that we do not conform you to a one-size-fits-all program with a pre-determined length of stay. We look beyond your symptoms and diagnoses. We see you as a whole and special person. We recognize you have a unique story and needs which must be an integral part of your healing equation. Using our evidence-based proprietary model of care, The 12 Dimensions of Human Health and Wellness, we partner you with a Client Advocate to walk with you on your journey, and together, you investigate all the areas of your life that might be causing you dysregulation which manifests as mental health issues and underlies the urge to abuse substances. We do not meet to discuss a plan for you behind closed doors that you must conform to. Instead, we empower you to participate. Evidence has shown that when clients feel empowered and have agency in their recovery process, they feel more invested and inspired.
With you at the center of our client-driven individualized care, we collaborate with you to create a wrap-around team of cutting-edge multidisciplinary support to help address all 12 key aspects of your life. The key life areas we assess in our evidence-based proprietary model of care,
The 12 Dimensions of Human Health and Wellness are:
- Substance use & medications
- Education
- Finances
- Career
- Legal/Criminal & civil
- Family
- Romantic relationships
- Purpose
- Connection to community & friendships
- Housing & living situation
- Medical & physical health
- Spirituality & religion
- Mental health & emotional regulation
- Nutrition & fitness
We meet you where you are at, and support you with compassion, helping you with whatever changes and improvements you are ready for.Each week you meet with your treatment team to create goals and evaluate the progress you have made. We evaluate what we need to adjust so that you can keep making progress at whatever pace you are ready for. As your life changes and new circumstances in life arise, we work with you to adjust your treatment plan accordingly.
We also offer many groups as well where you learn healthy perspectives, beneficial thought processes, gain insight and skills to navigate life, and manage your inner world- mentally, emotionally, and physically. Our groups are specialist-led and will help create new practices, revelations, and behavior patterns that are all a part of the transformation that takes place in recovery. Our groups include a wide variety of topics of psychoeducation, life skills, mental and emotional skills, fostering creativity, entrepreneurship/ technology, and nervous system regulation.
Another critical aspect of recovery is connection and community. Community is a vital part of the medicine that heals at Red Door Life. Often in addiction, one becomes isolated. In this isolation, we are in danger… the danger of our situation getting worse and of relapse or overdose. Red Door Life is more than just a residential treatment center, we create a culture of connection that will support you even during turbulent times and help you stay on track to achieve your goals. Life is easier with comprehensive support from specialists, dedicated recovery partners, and peers, ready to help lift you up. Through connection and community, our minds expand, and our nervous systems are soothed- we learn new perspectives, habits, and ways of feeling and being.

LIFE TRANSFORMATION: BEYOND THE WALLS OF RESIDENTIAL TREATMENT
Our individualized treatment goes beyond the walls of our world-class luxurious treatment center nestled in the hills on Mulholland Drive in Beverly Hills, CA. Often when one makes the decision to go into treatment, they lose their peer group and have to forge a whole new lifestyle, and it can feel like an identity crisis. We offer sober world rediscovery, which helps our clients form a sense of safe community and learn who they are beyond substance use- what they like, what they don’t like, what is triggering, and what enlivens them with new passion.
We also foster entrepreneurship as part of recovery. Evidence has shown that when one develops passion and purpose their chances at successful recovery greatly improve. At Red Door Life we understand the nuances of finding passion, purpose, and entrepreneurship in new recovery and we build support for that into our individualized programs. Our individualized care truly helps our clients rediscover their joy and transform their lives into lives of purpose, connection, and fulfillment.
