Being able to be yourself in treatment
Treatment works best when you can talk honestly about your life: your partner, your family, your gender, where and why you use. In a program that runs an LGBTQ group, those conversations are expected rather than awkward. Ask any program how staff are trained and how they handle names, pronouns and rooming.
See questions to ask an LGBTQ rehab before you commit.
How alcohol rehab works
Alcohol rehab begins with a safe detox when needed, because alcohol withdrawal can be dangerous after heavy daily drinking. Treatment then combines therapy with medications for alcohol use disorder, such as naltrexone, acamprosate or disulfiram, when they fit.
The programs on this page report alcohol detox or alcohol use disorder medications along with an LGBTQ program or group.

What medications help with alcohol use disorder?
Naltrexone, acamprosate and disulfiram are FDA-approved. A doctor can help decide whether one fits you.
What does it mean that a program reports an LGBTQ program?
Each listed facility told SAMHSA's national treatment survey that it offers a program or group specifically for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or queer clients. It's self-reported, so ask the program how the group works and how often it meets.
Is alcohol withdrawal dangerous?
It can be. After heavy daily drinking, stopping suddenly can cause seizures or delirium tremens. Medical detox manages this safely.
