The Need for Women’s Substance Abuse Treatment on the East Coast
Substance use is a chronic disease, which means that like diabetes or asthma, it is important to seek professional inpatient addiction treatment. Unfortunately, many people are unaware of the severity of their use. Signs that may indicate that someone is battling an addiction to drugs or alcohol and need a women’s substance abuse treatment program include:
- They’re unable to perform their duties at home or work because of their drug or alcohol use.
- They’ve experienced cravings for drugs or alcohol when they aren’t using them.
- They have damaged the relationships between their loved ones or friends due to their substance use.
- They drink or use drugs excessively in short periods of time.
- They’ve experienced adverse physical or mental health conditions because of their drug or alcohol use, but they’ve continued to use them anyway.
- They’ve developed a tolerance for drugs or alcohol, which means their need to use more of it to get the same effect.
- They have withdrawal symptoms when they don’t use substances.
- They’re unable to cut down or quit using drugs or alcohol alone.
If a woman is experiencing any of these symptoms, further evaluation by a healthcare professional may be recommended. At Hammocks on the Edisto, we’re committed to providing long-term support for women who are struggling with substance use.

What Challenges Do Women Face in Recovery?
Substance abuse can be difficult for anyone to overcome. Women face numerous challenges, from denial and shame surrounding their addiction to not receiving the exact treatment for their unique needs. These can all deter a woman’s ability to overcome addiction successfully. This is why a women’s substance abuse program can provide specialized care.
Here are some common challenges women face when it comes to their addiction recovery journey.
Below are some of the top benefits of our women’s substance abuse treatment programs:
Support for Overcoming Denial & Shame
Women may feel stronger feelings of shame and denial surrounding how severe their addiction truly is. This sense of shame, guilt, and denial can delay and potentially deter a woman's ability to go out and seek professional inpatient treatment essential for recovery.
A woman may especially feel a heightened sense of guilt surrounding their addiction if they are a mother. However, delaying your opportunity to receive life-changing treatment will only continue to hurt you and your family in the long run.
Gender-Specific Needs
Receiving substance abuse treatment for women is important for a woman to effectively treat her addiction once and for all. By not receiving gender-specific treatment that covers a wide range of issues from potential mental health conditions to eating disorders, hormonal issues, and more, a woman is not fully treating the scope of her addiction that may be exacerbating her substance abuse.
The Specific Needs of Women
Similar to the above reason, women and men are wired differently and thus react differently to different addiction recovery treatment programs.
Connecting and feeling supported by a community of peers who may be facing similar struggles as you is important when it comes to recovery. Therefore, women are better able to connect and likely resonate inside a women’s substance abuse treatment center as they will be surrounded by and be able to share similar stories of recovery with other women.

Effective Approaches to Substance Abuse Treatment for Women
Relationships are critical in maintaining long-term sobriety for a woman overcoming addiction. Additionally, addressing a woman’s past trauma and whether the woman is a mother or pregnant (and how her substance abuse is/can harm her child) is essential to effectively address during addiction treatment for women.
While every addiction recovery journey is different, women respond effectively to the substance abuse treatment approaches below.
- Family Counseling: Helps a woman rebuild relationships with loved ones that may have been fractured because of her addiction.
- Individual Therapy: Receive professional support to address how her substance abuse is impacting her life, whether she is a mother, daughter, wanting or expecting a child, etc.
- Cognitive Processing Therapy for Trauma: Effective treatment designed to address trauma safely rather than masking trauma with drugs and alcohol.
- Group Therapy: Connect with women who may be in a similar situation as you to learn and lean off of peers for support.
Each of these approaches explains why seeking a women’s only substance abuse treatment on the East Coast is important for women to receive the exact care for their unique needs.
