Practical Recovery


For those who struggle with substance abuse or addictive behaviors, abstinence can seem like a hopeless reality. But recovery is possible—even for those who have tried and failed. One San Diego recovery center is making great strides in changing the lives of those who have struggled with addiction.

Alternative Strategies is proud to partner with Practical Recovery. Since 1985, they’ve been offering a unique non-12-step approach to addiction treatment. Practical Recovery understands that everyone is different—therefore, they focus on an individual’s underlying issues and promote self-empowering, personalized tools to overcome destructive behaviors.

Practical Recovery maintains a science-based, modified approach to finding which method(s) of treatment best suits an individual. This radically open-ended recuperation service consists of a primarily doctorial-level staff, a choice of therapist, optional holistic practices (such as hypnotherapy), optional group counseling and highly flexible scheduling.

While most rehab programs insist that clients fit into a pre-existing treatment plan, Practical Recovery recognizes that human complexity requires singular alternatives to stop addiction at its core. Working in collaboration with everyone who needs to be involved (typically loved ones or parents), a collective decision to customize an individual’s road to recovery is proven to be the most self-fulfilling, therapeutic and beneficial path to preventing continual abuse.

Dr. Tom Horvath, founder of Practical Recovery, is an internationally recognized expert on addiction treatment. His extensive background in addiction abuse acknowledged that traditional forms of addiction recovery plans (such as Alcoholics Anonymous) don’t help most people. He created Practical Recovery in response to the inefficiency of most rehab facilities and sought to establish a self-identifying agenda to utilize “what works best for you.”

Alternative Strategies is pleased to provide Practical Recovery with strategic public relations services designed to further resound their distinct leadership and exclusive guidance to the San Diego community. To learn more about Practical Recovery, visit them at www.practicalrecovery.com.
