Benzodiazepine Detox & Addiction Treatment in Los Angeles
At Refine Recovery in Beverly Hills, we offer specialized benzodiazepine detox and addiction treatment in a luxury setting tailored to meet the unique needs of each client. Benzodiazepines are commonly prescribed for anxiety disorders, with studies indicating that 55% to 94% of patients with anxiety in the United States are treated with these medications. While effective for short-term relief, benzodiazepines can lead to dependence, making safe and supportive treatment essential for recovery. Our program provides a structured and comfortable environment, allowing clients to focus on their health and be free from daily life stressors. Whether you or a loved one is dealing with benzodiazepine addiction or the additional challenges of polysubstance addiction, we’re here to help you reclaim a life of health, stability, and freedom.
Understanding Benzodiazepine Addiction
Benzodiazepines, a class of drugs commonly prescribed for conditions such as anxiety, insomnia, and muscle relaxation, include medications like Xanax, Valium, and Ativan. While they can be effective when used short-term and within prescribed guidelines, benzodiazepines pose a high risk of dependence and addiction. In fact, research indicates that long-term benzodiazepine use can lead to dependency in as many as 15% of users, particularly when taken for extended periods or at higher doses. This dependency can create a cycle where users feel unable to function without the drug, leading to physical and psychological addiction.
Benzodiazepines act by calming the central nervous system, which can result in users developing a tolerance, requiring increasingly higher doses to achieve the same effect. This escalation can lead to adverse effects on health, strain relationships, and significantly impact overall quality of life. Recognizing these challenges, Refine Recovery offers a comprehensive benzodiazepine detox program in Los Angeles that addresses both the physical and mental aspects of addiction. Our approach combines specialized medical care with compassionate support to help individuals build a strong foundation for long-term recovery.
Why Choose Refine Recovery for Benzodiazepine Detox in Los Angeles?
Refine Recovery is a premier choice for benzodiazepine detox in Los Angeles, offering a luxurious, client-centered approach in the heart of Beverly Hills.

The Benzodiazepine Detox Process at Refine Recovery
The detox phase is a crucial first step toward recovery from benzodiazepine addiction. Due to the complex and potentially life-threatening withdrawal symptoms associated with benzodiazepines, detoxing without professional assistance can be extremely dangerous. At Refine Recovery, our benzodiazepine detox in Los Angeles is overseen by a team of experienced medical professionals who prioritize your safety and comfort at every stage.
Step 1: Assessment and Customized Detox Plan
Your journey begins with a thorough assessment by our medical and clinical teams. We evaluate your physical and mental health, the extent of your addiction, any co-occurring disorders, and personal preferences to create a tailored detox plan. This personalized approach allows us to safely taper off benzodiazepines, minimizing withdrawal symptoms and reducing the risk of complications.
Step 2: Medical Monitoring and Symptom Management
As benzodiazepine withdrawal can bring about symptoms like anxiety, tremors, seizures, and insomnia, our team provides constant monitoring and supportive care to help you manage these challenges. Medications may be used under close supervision to ease discomfort and facilitate a smooth detox process. The length of detox varies based on individual factors but typically lasts several days to a few weeks.
Step 3: Transition to Comprehensive Addiction Treatment
Detox alone does not address the root causes of addiction. Once your body is free from benzodiazepines, we guide you into the next phase of treatment, which focuses on uncovering and addressing the psychological, emotional, and behavioral aspects of addiction. Our team provides a seamless transition into our benzodiazepine addiction treatment program, ensuring continuity of care and support.
Holistic Addiction Treatment in Beverly Hills
Following detox, our comprehensive treatment program addresses the underlying issues that fuel addiction. We offer a range of evidence-based therapies, including individual counseling, group therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), and family therapy, as well as holistic practices like art therapy and mindfulness training. This integrative approach helps clients build the emotional resilience and self-awareness necessary to maintain long-term sobriety.
Many individuals struggling with benzodiazepine addiction also face issues with other substances. If you or your loved one is dealing with polysubstance addiction, our team has extensive experience in managing the complexities of multiple substance dependencies. We recognize that each substance interacts differently within the body and brain, requiring specialized detox and treatment plans for effective recovery. Through individualized care and comprehensive treatment, we address all aspects of your addiction, offering a more sustainable path to recover.
Dual Diagnosis and Co-Occurring Disorders
For many clients, benzodiazepine addiction is closely linked with mental health conditions such as depression, anxiety, or PTSD. Our dual diagnosis program provides simultaneous treatment for both addiction and co-occurring disorders, recognizing that untreated mental health issues can often trigger relapse. Our clinicians work closely with you to address both your mental health and addiction needs in a cohesive, integrated approach.
At Refine Recovery, we offer specialized programs for a wide range of substance use disorders, including benzodiazepines, opioids, alcohol, and other prescription drug addictions in Los Angeles. Our comprehensive treatment also extends to co-occurring mental health conditions, creating a safe and supportive environment for holistic healing. Our compassionate, respectful approach is rooted in a commitment to helping you regain control of your life and well-being.
