Addiction Treatment In Newport Beach, California




Addiction treatment has a long history filled with an ever-increasing number of options. We believe in an alternative science-based medical model to treat addiction and co-occurring disorders (dual diagnosis). Our AA alternative, non 12 step approach is the only alcohol and drug treatment facility located in Southern California that utilizes cutting-edge alternative treatments, such as TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation), and combines them with medication and therapy to form the complete treatment package. As an addiction alternative, unlike common treatment centers, Brookside Institute serves as a center willing to address the underlying neuroscience in combination with its already excellent level of therapy, groups, and clinical attention. With the new NeuroScience Center, a cutting edge research facility located onsite, our patients have access to the latest breakthroughs in brain function, neurophysiology, and alternative treatments. If you are looking for an alternative to addiction, and/or an alternative to AA and 12-Step addiction treatment, and you want to break the relapse cycle, we can help.

We have recently become host to third and fourth year medical students from the University of California Irvine Medical School, serving as a teaching facility for addiction treatment.

Pulling Back The Curtain To The Brain; Referenced EEG, Addictions and Dual Disorders

Scientific Breakthrough in Brain Wave Analysis.

In its leadership role in the treatment of addictions, Brookside Institute insists on using the latest in modern diagnostic and treatment methods. As part of Brookside Institute's science based protocol, the Referenced Electroencephalograph [rEEG] offers treatment professionals of many disciplines and patients the first real hope for long term recovery.

Among the great advances in the scientific and professional treatment of addictions is the increasing availability of brain diagnostic tools, such as the electroencephalograph [EEG]. Traditional treatment methods have largely ignored the actual organic brain and its function, and have suffered an undue amount of failures in recovery.

Cooperation, Not Affiliation

Qmpas™

The Brainwave Entrainment Process developed by Brookside Institute uses the Q Factor of the patient’s brainwave integrated with music to produce a frequency that reinforces the patient’s improved brain function achieved during treatment. "We are able to improve our patients’ brain functions with Magno-EEG Resonant Therapy (MERT), Neurofeedback and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. QMPAS™ helps them retain that improvement," stated Dr. Trung Thai M.D., F.A.C.G.S., Medical Director of Brookside Institute.

During treatment, the patient’s therapist and other members of the treatment team create audio and video segments that help remind the patient of the concepts he or she learned during different therapy sessions. The entrainment, audio files and videos are downloaded onto an iPod™ that is given to the patient to take home. "QMPAS™ is the next best thing to going home with our patients. With QMPAS™ patients have access to us whenever they need a little extra help," said Laura Rothafel, M.A., L.M.F.T., Clinical Director of Brookside Institute.
