Detoxification.
This is the first step in the recovery process when struggling with alcohol or drug dependence.
Starting recovery can feel overwhelming, and detox is often the first important step.
Detoxification helps your body safely adjust as drugs or alcohol leave your system. At Tara Treatment Center, we use the American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM) Criteria to guide this process, so that you receive care tailored to your unique needs.
We work to ensure that your detox care is individualized, evidence-based and medically appropriate.

Why the ASAM Criteria Matters.
It helps us prepare you for the next stage of treatment. It’s about giving you the best possible start toward long-term recovery.
Personalized Care
The approach toward your recovery is based on medical, psychological and social needs.
Safe Care
Your health and well-being remain a priority during withdrawal.
Clear Pathway
You will have a defined plan from detox to ongoing treatment and recovery.
Long-Term Outcome
Your plan increases the likelihood of lifelong recovery success.
