Separating the men’s and women’s detox programs reduces sexual tension and allows both genders to be more open in group therapy. Men have a tendency of suppressing feelings or addictions because of the common perception that men should be strong and not show weakness. A gender specific detox allows men to open up in a safe space.
Women face unique obstacles and vulnerabilities that can be addressed in a women’s detox program. Biological factors such as hormone fluctuations and the metabolization process with drugs are unique to women. Women face expectations and challenges such as body-image, caretaking, and gender violence, so women’s group therapy can address these specific needs.
