Personal Experience Treating Cocaine Addiction
“Throughout my 30 years of clinical work as a licensed alcohol and drug counselor, I have treated thousands of individuals and families affected by alcohol use disorder. Diagnosing and treating comorbid medical problems caused by long-term alcohol use, like liver disease, diabetes, and malnutrition, is crucial to helping people recover. Addressing the family system to restore broken relationships and establish recovery-supportive home settings and lifestyles also makes a significant difference in outcomes. The millions of people living in long-term recovery from alcohol abuse are a testament to the potential to stop letting alcohol control your life. Our program offers the expertise and therapies to help people take the first step and stay the course.” — Jasmine Aranda, Chief Clinical Officer
What is Cocaine Addiction?
Cocaine addiction, clinically referred to as cocaine use disorder (CUD), is a chronic, relapsing condition characterized by a compulsive need to use cocaine despite significant physical, psychological, and social consequences. It develops when repeated cocaine use alters brain chemistry, particularly the dopamine reward system, in ways that reinforce continued use and make it increasingly difficult to stop.
CUD exists on a spectrum from mild to severe, and its progression can be rapid, making it difficult for individuals or their families to recognize without clinical assessment. Like other substance use disorders, cocaine addiction is a medical condition, not a moral failing, and it responds to evidence-based cocaine addiction treatment.
Cocaine Addiction vs. Cocaine Use Disorder
The terms “cocaine addiction” and “cocaine use disorder” are often used interchangeably, but cocaine use disorder (CUD) is the current clinical diagnosis used by healthcare providers, defined in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5) as a pattern of cocaine use involving loss of control, preoccupation with use, and continued use despite negative consequences. “Cocaine addiction” is a colloquial term that generally refers to the more severe end of the CUD spectrum, where compulsive use and significant impairment are most pronounced. (American Psychiatric Association, DSM-5, 2013).
How Is Cocaine Addiction Treated?
Cocaine addiction is typically treated through a continuum of care, beginning with medically supervised withdrawal management to support clients through the acute phase safely and progressing into structured residential or outpatient programming as clinically appropriate. Cocaine addiction treatment addresses both the physical and the underlying psychological, behavioral, and social factors that contribute to ongoing use. An integrated approach that includes co-occurring mental health treatment tends to support more durable outcomes for individuals with CUD.
Common cocaine addiction treatment modalities may include:
- Medically supervised withdrawal management (ASAM 3.7)
- Residential inpatient treatment (ASAM 3.5)
- Individual therapy (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Contingency Management)
- Group therapy and peer support programming
- Medication-assisted treatment (MAT), such as naltrexone or acamprosate, where clinically indicated
- Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP), in-person or virtual
- Family therapy and psychoeducation
- Dual diagnosis / co-occurring mental health treatment
- Relapse prevention planning and aftercare support
Why Timely Cocaine Addiction Treatment Matters
Seeking cocaine addiction treatment for cocaine use disorder can be a meaningful step toward stabilizing health, rebuilding relationships, and reducing the compounding risks that untreated CUD carries over time.
Importance of cocaine use disorder treatment:
- CUD is a progressive condition; without intervention, physical and psychological consequences tend to worsen
- Medically supervised withdrawal management reduces the risk of severe psychiatric complications, including suicidality and acute depression during the crash phase
- Structured treatment addresses co-occurring mental health conditions that often drive or sustain cocaine use
- Early intervention is associated with better long-term outcomes across physical health, social functioning, and sustained recovery
- Access to Medicaid-covered treatment has expanded options for individuals who previously faced financial barriers to care
- Treatment can help restore family stability and reduce the social and economic burden of untreated addiction
- Residential and outpatient programs provide clinical structure during the highest-risk period of early recovery
Risks of Untreated Cocaine Addiction
Without clinical intervention, cocaine use disorder carries significant and well-documented health risks that extend across nearly every organ system.
- Cardiovascular emergencies: Cocaine use is associated with increased risk of myocardial infarction, arrhythmias, aortic dissection, and sudden cardiac death, even in young, otherwise healthy users (Schwartz et al., 2010, Circulation)
- Stroke and neurological damage: Cocaine use is a well-established risk factor for both ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke, as well as seizures and long-term cognitive impairment (Treadwell & Robinson, 2007, QJM)
- Overdose risk: Cocaine overdose deaths have risen sharply in recent years, driven in part by fentanyl contamination of the illicit cocaine supply (National Institute on Drug Abuse, NIDA)
- Mental health deterioration: Chronic cocaine use is strongly associated with depression, anxiety disorders, paranoia, and stimulant-induced psychosis; cocaine use is also linked to elevated suicide risk
- Respiratory damage: Smoking crack cocaine is associated with chronic cough, lung injury, pulmonary hemorrhage, and a condition often referred to as “crack lung”
- Nasal and sinus damage: Long-term intranasal cocaine use can cause perforation of the nasal septum, chronic sinusitis, and loss of smell
- Infectious disease risk: Injection cocaine use is associated with increased risk of HIV, hepatitis C, and endocarditis
- Social and functional consequences: Untreated CUD is associated with job loss, family breakdown, legal involvement, housing instability, and increased risk of accidents and injury
Our Facility: Cocaine Addiction Rehab in Broomfield, Colorado
Our inpatient detoxification and residential cocaine addiction treatment facility is located at 11952 Gray Street in Broomfield, Colorado. Broomfield is a beautiful suburb just north of Denver.

Clients enjoy large common spaces to meet with peers and relax, recreational areas, a fitness center, private clinical offices, group therapy rooms, a commercial gourmet kitchen that serves delicious and nutritious meals, and more.
Dining & Nutrition
Nutrition plays an important role in recovery. Living with active substance use disorders can deplete the body of vital nutrients, upset one’s metabolism, and lead to malnutrition. Learning to eat a healthy, balanced diet and rebuild a healthy relationship with food can bolster health and support recovery.
Foundry Front Range clients receive healthy and delicious meals and snacks prepared by professional chefs and informed by nutritional experts. Special diets can be accommodated with advance notice. Meals are typically eaten together in the dining room, though clients may choose to dine privately.

Specialized Care Model: Trauma-Integrated Care
Our Trauma-Integrated Care Model was developed by Chief Clinical Advisor Michael Barnes, PhD, using more than forty years of direct care and research experience.
Traumatic life experiences can have cascading negative impacts, including an inability to experience emotions, damaged relationships, excessive stress, depression, hypervigilance, and more.
The Trauma-Integrated Care Model goes further than conventional trauma-informed models of care by designing the entire treatment episode around emotional safety.
Reduction and resolution of trauma symptoms comes first.
Team members are specially trained to support clients experiencing traumatic stress, family education is provided, and sophisticated trauma therapies are used as a normal course of treatment at Foundry Front Range.

Seamless Insurance Verification
Our admissions team works directly with Medicaid to verify coverage quickly and clearly. We help clients and their families understand exactly what is covered, what to expect during treatment, and how to navigate any administrative steps so that the focus can remain on recovery rather than paperwork.
Treatment Team Access & Oversight
Our integrated care model ensures that Medicaid clients have consistent, meaningful access to their full treatment team — including physicians, nurses, licensed therapists, and case managers. Frequent clinical interactions improve outcomes by allowing care plans to be adjusted in real time as client needs evolve.
Nutrition and Fitness Support
Substance use disorders often lead to poor nutritional habits, disordered eating, and poor physical health. Our program provides high-quality nutrition and dietary counseling needed to restore physical health and teaches clients how to maintain healthy habits in recovery. On-site supervised fitness facilities allow clients to rebuild their bodies safely.
Facilitated Family Involvement
Family programming, which typically includes education and counseling, is part of our comprehensive recovery model. Trained family therapists help clients and their family members understand addiction, repair relationships, and build the home support systems essential to sustained recovery.
What to Expect in Cocaine Addiction Treatment at Foundry Front Range
We are an inpatient cocaine detox and treatment center. Foundry Front Range is a Joint Commission–accredited, evidence-based drug and alcohol rehab center serving adults 18+ in Broomfield, Colorado. We offer medically supervised withdrawal management (ASAM 3.7) and integrated residential treatment (ASAM 3.5), and we proudly accept RAE 1 Medicaid. Our licensed medical facility provides structured, clinically supervised care for individuals navigating cocaine use disorder and co-occurring conditions.
1. Medically supervised cocaine withdrawal management
Medically supervised withdrawal management is a critical first step for individuals with cocaine use disorder, which can produce severe psychiatric symptoms — including profound depression, suicidality, and intense cravings — during the acute crash phase. At Foundry Front Range, our dedicated detox suite provides 24/7 medical oversight to support safe, monitored stabilization. Withdrawal management is available as a stand-alone service or as the first phase of comprehensive residential cocaine addiction treatment — and because both programs are housed in the same facility, clients can transition directly into residential care without disruption.
2. Medical assessments and screenings
Long-term cocaine use can affect cardiovascular function, neurological health, respiratory function, and nutritional status, among other areas. Upon admission, clients receive thorough medical assessments and screenings to identify underlying health conditions that may require attention during cocaine addiction treatment. Addressing these issues early is an important part of supporting each client’s overall stability and readiness to engage in the recovery process.
3. Medical care and nursing
Our clinical and nursing staff provide ongoing medical care throughout withdrawal management and residential cocaine addiction treatment to address health conditions associated with cocaine use disorder. When a client’s medical needs require a higher level of care than our facility can provide, we coordinate referrals to local hospital partners to ensure they receive appropriate treatment before returning to participate fully in programming.
4. Substance use education
Understanding cocaine use disorder — its causes, effects, and long-term management — is an important part of the recovery process. At Foundry Front Range, psychoeducation is tailored to each client’s individual conditions and needs, and is delivered in both individual and group settings. Building this foundation of knowledge can help clients make informed decisions about their health and recovery beyond cocaine addiction treatment.
5. Psychotherapy
Psychotherapy is a cornerstone of evidence-based cocaine addiction treatment and a primary modality used throughout residential care at Foundry Front Range. Our clinical team draws on a range of therapeutic approaches, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), motivational interviewing (MI), and contingency management, which is widely recognized as one of the most effective behavioral interventions for stimulant use disorders. For clients with trauma histories, specialized therapies such as EMDR and somatic experiencing may be integrated into the treatment plan to address underlying or undiagnosed trauma that can contribute to cocaine use disorder.
6. Psychiatric prescribing
Psychiatric medication can play an important role in supporting recovery from cocaine use disorder. While there are currently no FDA-approved medications specifically for cocaine use disorder, medications prescribed and managed by our clinical team may help stabilize mood, manage cravings off-label where clinically indicated, and address symptoms of co-occurring mental health conditions such as depression, anxiety, or sleep disturbance that frequently contribute to problematic cocaine use. The goal of psychiatric prescribing at Foundry Front Range is to help clients achieve stability and comfort under the safe, monitored care of a qualified medical provider, without reliance on cocaine or other substances.
7. Group therapy
Group therapy is a structured, evidence-based modality that forms a central part of residential cocaine addiction treatment at Foundry Front Range. Led by licensed clinicians, group sessions provide a space for clients to explore shared experiences, practice interpersonal skills, and build peer accountability in early recovery. Therapeutic groups may focus on topics such as relapse prevention, emotional regulation, coping strategies, and the psychological dimensions of cocaine use disorder. The group setting can help reduce the isolation that often accompanies addiction and may support clients in developing the social connections that are important to sustained recovery.
8. Family therapy
Cocaine use disorder affects not just the individual, but the people closest to them. Family therapy is offered as part of residential treatment at Foundry Front Range to help clients and their loved ones begin to address relationship dynamics, communication patterns, and the impact of addiction on the family system. Sessions are facilitated by licensed clinicians and are designed to support both the client’s recovery and the wellbeing of participating family members. Families who engage in the treatment process alongside their loved one may be better prepared to provide meaningful support after discharge. Learn more about our Family Addiction Program.
9. Support group introduction
Long-term recovery from cocaine use disorder is often supported by ongoing peer connection beyond the clinical setting. During residential treatment, clients are introduced to mutual support frameworks such as Cocaine Anonymous (CA), Narcotics Anonymous (NA), and SMART Recovery, and may have the opportunity to attend facilitated meetings as part of their programming. This introduction is designed to help clients become familiar with the recovery community before they leave treatment, so that stepping into peer support after discharge feels approachable rather than unfamiliar. Staff can help clients identify meetings and community resources in the Broomfield and Denver metro area that align with their individual preferences and recovery goals.
10. Recreation and lifestyle counseling
Recovery involves more than clinical therapy — it also includes rebuilding daily structure, physical health, and a sense of purpose. At Foundry Front Range, recreational and lifestyle counseling may help clients identify healthy activities, interests, and routines that can support their recovery outside of formal treatment. This may include guidance on stress management, sleep hygiene, physical activity, and building a lifestyle that is sustainable in long-term recovery. Re-establishing a meaningful daily routine is an important part of preparing clients to return to everyday life after residential care.
11. Nutritional education and support
Chronic cocaine use can significantly disrupt the body’s nutritional status, often suppressing appetite and contributing to weight loss, vitamin and mineral deficiencies, and depleted energy reserves. Nutritional education and support at Foundry Front Range is designed to help clients understand the relationship between nutrition and physical recovery, and to begin rebuilding healthy eating habits during their time in residential treatment. Adequate nutrition supports the body’s healing process and may contribute to improved mood and energy as clients progress through treatment. Our clinical team works to ensure that clients have access to nourishing meals and, where appropriate, targeted nutritional guidance as part of their overall care.
12. Discharge planning
Residential treatment is a structured beginning to recovery, not the end of the care continuum. Discharge planning at Foundry Front Range begins early in the treatment process to ensure that clients leave with a clear, individualized plan for continued support. This may include coordination of step-down care such as our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) or Virtual IOP, referrals to outpatient providers, connection to community support resources, and guidance on medication management if applicable. Our clinical team works closely with each client and, where appropriate, their family to help ensure a supported transition from residential care back to daily life.
