The Focus

Pensacola Men’s Rehab Focuses on the Total Person

Christian rehab center

All aspects of our Christian rehab center focus on achieving abstinence from alcohol and other drugs, and most importantly, building the foundation to support recovery for a lifetime, including spiritual recovery.

  • Spiritually: our addiction counselors know that the student’s symptoms indicate deeper problems and conflicts; we understand that a new life in Christ will give them the power and ability to overcome these problems and live a more productive life.
  • Emotionally: the healing of past abuses is necessary. Biblical studies enhance mental growth and serve as a foundation for creating new lives.
  • Physically: our addiction counselors care for the physical needs of the students. These needs – a drug-free environment, food, recreation, etc. – are critical factors to the student’s success in the program.
  • Socially: Students learn to work through relationship problems with their peers and with their families at home. They will learn to apply the character qualities they learn in the classroom to their everyday lives.
  • Educationally: our addiction counselors have developed a life training curriculum specifically designed to develop the skills required to become successful members of society. Comprehensive education includes subjects ranging from the related health aspects of chemical dependency, boundary setting, anger management, coping skills, relapse prevention, and cognitive behavioral tools to help build a strong foundation in recovery.

Why Choose Teen Challenge Pensacola First?

Long-term residential recovery programs like Teen Challenge Pensacola Men’s Rehab differ from typical short-term rehabs for men programs. Short-term “revolving door” addiction treatment programs are visited repeatedly by relapsed addicts, temporarily solving the addiction but never solving the core of the problem, so the addiction comes back again. So, the addict has to return to rehabs repeatedly, costing them, their insurance carrier, or their family tens of thousands of dollars each time. Every day, Teen Challenge adult addiction treatment centers enroll individuals who have previously attended 5, 10, 20, or even 30 costly short-term rehabs, to no avail. They should have come to Teen Challenge Florida first!

So, why is Pensacola Men’s Rehab different?

It is one of few substance abuse treatment programs that will dedicate a whole year to work with each addict. That is a substantial financial commitment by the organization and community, but it is the time needed for the recovery rates to be what they are. The day-to-day structure, community, and faith emphasis over such an extended period bring addicts slowly out of wrong and drug-impacted thinking into an awareness of a purpose for their life and a new way of thinking and living. Such a new purpose and way of living has no place for abusing drugs or alcohol; addiction is replaced by self-love, peace, happiness, purpose, and excitement for the future.

Will Forced Avoidance of Substances Solve the Problem?

The short answer is “No.” Detoxing and keeping an individual from drugs or alcohol only lasts as long as the addict is in a very controlled environment. After that, if other life issues are not dealt with, the addict will return to the addiction. This isn’t because it is a disease — it is a learned behavior for covering up the individual’s hurts and longings, and it feels terrific, at first. Yes, Teen Challenge addiction treatment programs separate addicts from their addicting substances for a more extended period, but the more challenging work they do is to replace the addiction with a whole new way of living. They gradually work the individual back into the community with a new goal in life and have the strength to avoid negative behaviors and environments on their own.

Pensacola Men’s Rehab, part of Teen Challenge, also teaches responsibility, work ethic, and pride in work. More importantly, they instill truthfulness and trustworthiness in each individual, the cornerstones of relationships and responsibilities.

Pensacola Men’s Rehab Definition of Addiction

Addiction is characterized by an individual’s progressive loss of control over the continuing use of a substance or behavior. The user becomes obsessed with the substance or behavior despite adverse consequences and vigorously denies the existence of a problem if confronted. The user will do just about anything to maintain their addiction, so it affects not only the addict but can also damage families, relationships, careers, and many other aspects of life. The Teen Challenge residential drug addiction rehab programs are designed to provide long-term recovery from such addictions.

Christian Rehab & Addiction Recovery – Final Word and a Promise

At the core of Pensacola Men’s Rehab is this principle: 

“God’s love has the power to reach and transform every addict, offering them instead of a life of truth, peace, and purpose.  Our goal is to clear the addict’s mind and provide the right motivations, environment, training, and mentorship to support this transformation.  So, if you or a loved one is on the downward spiral of substance abuse, contact Pensacola Men’s Rehab addiction counselor first.  We promise it will be the last rehab center you or they will ever need.”
