Specialized addiction treatment for young adults ages 18-25 in Beverly Hills. Evidence-based care addressing the unique challenges of this critical developmental stage.
At Refine Recovery, we recognize that young adults face distinct challenges when seeking addiction treatment. Our Beverly Hills facility provides a specialized environment where individuals ages 18-25 can heal from substance use disorders while navigating this critical developmental period. We believe that effective addiction treatment must address not only substance use but also the unique psychological, social, and neurobiological factors that influence young adult recovery.
Research consistently shows that young adults experience substance use disorders at significantly higher rates than any other age group. According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), nearly half of young adults aged 18 to 25 had either a mental illness or a substance use disorder in 2022. Young adults are the most likely age group to engage in binge drinking, with approximately 29% reporting this behavior in the past month.
Several factors contribute to these alarming statistics:
Refine Recovery’s treatment philosophy centers on creating an environment where young adults feel understood, supported, and empowered to build a foundation for lasting recovery. Our approach includes:
Our clinical team receives specialized training in young adult development, ensuring that all staff understand the unique neurobiological, psychological, and social factors affecting this age group. We recognize that effective treatment requires more than traditional approaches—it demands an understanding of the developmental stage young adults are navigating and the specific challenges they face in establishing adult identities while managing addiction.
We utilize proven treatment modalities that have been specifically adapted for young adults:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Our cognitive behavioral therapy program helps young adults identify and modify negative thought patterns, develop healthy coping strategies, and build decision-making skills critical for this developmental stage.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT): Our dialectical behavior therapy program focuses on emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills, particularly valuable for young adults managing the intense emotions and impulsivity associated with brain development and life transitions.
Group Therapy: Our group therapy services include age-appropriate groups where young adults can connect with peers facing similar challenges, practice interpersonal skills, and develop healthy relationship patterns.
Young adulthood is a critical period for identity formation. Our treatment approach specifically addresses identity development, helping young adults discover who they are beyond their substance use. Through our life skills development program, we address practical concerns young adults face, including:
Many young adults have experienced trauma that contributes to substance use, including adverse childhood experiences, bullying, academic pressure, relationship difficulties, or traumatic events during adolescence. Our trauma-informed approach recognizes these experiences and integrates healing into the recovery process, helping young adults process trauma while building resilience.
Located in Beverly Hills, Refine Recovery is more than just a treatment center—it’s a sanctuary for transformation. Our approach to young adult addiction treatment is deeply personal, combining medical expertise with a compassionate, developmentally-appropriate philosophy.
Each young adult receives personalized individual therapy sessions with clinicians trained in young adult development and addiction. These sessions address substance use while also focusing on identity exploration, relationship building, emotional regulation, and future planning—helping clients develop a strong sense of self while building recovery skills.
Our specialized process groups provide a safe space for young adults to explore their relationships with substances while discussing the unique challenges of this life stage. These groups foster community building and peer support in healthy, recovery-oriented ways, replacing destructive peer influences with positive connections.
Our health and wellness treatment includes mindfulness practices specifically designed for young adults. Our daily intentions and mindfulness group provides practical tools for managing stress, building emotional resilience, and developing self-awareness during this transformative period.
Through our family therapy programs, we work to repair and strengthen relationships with family members while also helping young adults establish healthy boundaries and independence. We understand that young adults are navigating the complex balance between family connection and autonomy, and we support both the individual and their family system.
Young adults frequently present with co-occurring mental health conditions alongside substance use disorders. Our dual diagnosis treatment addresses:
According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, integrated treatment that addresses both substance use and mental health simultaneously produces the best outcomes for young adults.
We provide specialized treatment for substances frequently used within young adult populations:
Our alcohol rehab program addresses binge drinking patterns common in college and social environments, helping young adults understand the risks of alcohol misuse and develop healthier social connection strategies.
Our marijuana addiction treatment recognizes the high rates of cannabis use among young adults (38% in 2023) and addresses both the substance itself and the underlying reasons young adults turn to marijuana for stress relief or social acceptance.
Our prescription drug addiction treatment addresses the misuse of ADHD medications like Adderall and Ritalin, which young adults often use for academic performance enhancement or recreational purposes.
Our fentanyl addiction treatment and opioid rehab programs recognize the devastating impact of the opioid crisis on young adults, many of whom began with prescription pain medications before progressing to more dangerous substances.
Our cocaine addiction treatment and stimulant addiction treatment address the use of these substances in party and social settings, helping young adults find healthy ways to socialize and manage energy levels.
Our polysubstance addiction treatment recognizes that many young adults use multiple substances simultaneously, requiring comprehensive treatment that addresses complex use patterns.
We understand that many young adults in treatment are concerned about their educational and career trajectories. Our treatment approach incorporates:
Through psychoeducation and skill-building exercises, we help young adults:
Our relapse prevention therapy specifically addresses triggers unique to young adults:
Our aftercare planning for young adults includes:
Research demonstrates that individuals who begin drinking by age 13 have a 43% chance of developing alcohol use disorder, while those who wait until age 21 have only a 10% chance. Early intervention during young adulthood can prevent decades of struggle with addiction and its consequences.
The brain’s neuroplasticity during young adulthood also means that this period offers unique opportunities for change. With proper treatment and support, young adults can redirect their developmental trajectory, establish healthy patterns, and build a solid foundation for their future.
