Taking the first step towards recovery from drug or alcohol addiction is a huge accomplishment, but the journey doesn’t end with detox. Often, there’s a phase after the initial withdrawal called post-acute withdrawal syndrome, or PAWS. This can be a challenging time, and having the right support and treatment is key to lasting recovery. At Asana Recovery, located in beautiful Orange County, California, we understand this. We specialize in providing comprehensive Drug Addiction Treatment and Alcohol Addiction Treatment, including targeted programs for managing PAWS.
Choosing the right treatment facility is crucial, but figuring out how to pay for it can be just as overwhelming. That’s why we’re here to guide you through the process, particularly if you have insurance through Anthem, Beacon, or Cigna. These plans often provide coverage for vital programs like post-acute withdrawal therapy. Understanding your insurance and how it can help you access the treatment you need is a big step forward. This post will help you understand PAWS, explore your insurance options, and discover how Asana Recovery can support you.
We know that seeking help can feel daunting, but you’re not alone. Asana Recovery is committed to helping individuals and families navigate the complexities of addiction and recovery. With our experienced team, comprehensive care, and compassionate approach, we’re here to help you achieve long-term healing.
When you’ve been struggling with drug or alcohol addiction, your body and brain get used to having these substances. When you stop using, your body goes through withdrawal. Usually, the initial physical withdrawal symptoms start to fade after a few days or weeks. But, some people experience a second phase called Post-Acute Withdrawal Syndrome, or PAWS. PAWS is not a relapse, but it is a very common part of the recovery process, and it is very real.
So, what exactly is PAWS? It’s a set of emotional and psychological symptoms that can persist for weeks, months, or even years after the initial detox. These symptoms are different for everyone, but they can include:
These symptoms aren’t just “in your head.” They happen because your brain is trying to heal from the effects of drugs or alcohol. This process takes time. It’s important to understand that PAWS symptoms are not a sign of weakness. They are a normal part of the recovery process. The duration of PAWS varies a lot. For some people, the symptoms may last a few months, while others might deal with them for over a year. The symptoms can also come and go, which can be confusing and frustrating.
Without proper treatment and support, PAWS can be really hard to manage. It can increase the chances of relapse, making it even harder to stay on the path to recovery. This is why professional treatment, like the kind we offer at Asana Recovery, is so important. We can give you the tools you need to understand and deal with these symptoms, reducing your risk of relapse and promoting long-term well-being.
Understanding your insurance coverage is an important step in accessing the treatment you need for PAWS. At Asana Recovery, we work with several insurance providers to make it easier for you to get the help you deserve. Let’s take a look at some of the major plans that can help you cover the costs of rehab.
Anthem: Anthem is a well-known insurance provider that offers a variety of health plans. Many of these plans cover mental health and substance use treatment, including programs for managing PAWS. The extent of your coverage will depend on the specific plan you have, but generally, Anthem often helps cover services like therapy, counseling, and medication management, which are all key parts of PAWS treatment.
Beacon: Beacon Health Options specializes in behavioral health management. If you have a Beacon plan, it often includes coverage for addiction treatment services like Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP), which is an important aspect of PAWS therapy. Beacon’s plans are designed to support mental health and addiction treatment and can be a great resource for your recovery journey.
Cigna: Cigna is another major insurance provider that often covers addiction treatment programs, such as our PAWS treatment. Their coverage can vary based on the specifics of your plan. Still, it often includes things like Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT), counseling, and other essential services. Cigna is a comprehensive plan that can provide a wide range of services to help manage your recovery.
Now, how do you know exactly what your plan covers? It can be confusing looking at the fine print. The best first step is to verify insurance with us here at Asana Recovery. We can handle the complex task of verifying your benefits. We’ll work directly with your insurance company to see exactly what treatments and services are covered under your specific plan. This service is free, and it makes the entire process much less stressful. You don’t need to worry about hidden costs or unexpected bills. We want to make sure you have a clear understanding of your financial responsibility.
Having an insurance plan with Anthem, Beacon, or Cigna can help make treatment more affordable. If you have any questions, please Contact Us. We’re here to make the process as easy as possible for you. If you don’t have insurance or want to explore different payment methods, we also offer Private Pay and Payment Options to help with the cost of your care.

We get it. Addiction recovery is tough. That’s why our programs are founded and staffed by people in recovery – people who truly understand.
At Asana Recovery in Orange County, we recognize that every individual’s experience with PAWS is unique. That’s why we offer personalized treatment plans that address the specific needs of each of our clients. Our goal is to provide you with the support and tools needed to manage your symptoms and stay committed to your recovery. We use evidence-based strategies that have proven effective in managing post-acute withdrawal symptoms.
One of our core offerings is our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP). Our IOP is designed for individuals who need more support than regular outpatient treatment but don’t require 24/7 care. Our IOP allows clients to live at home, continue with work or school while attending therapy, counseling, and other essential activities. Our IOP is great for people who have completed detox or residential treatment and want to keep their recovery moving forward. In our IOP, you’ll be part of a small group that feels like family, who you can connect with and build a support network. The program includes individual therapy, group sessions, and holistic approaches that provide a rounded treatment.
Another critical part of our PAWS treatment is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). This type of therapy helps you recognize and change harmful thought patterns and behaviors that can contribute to PAWS symptoms. With CBT, you’ll learn how to cope with triggers, manage stress, and develop healthier ways of thinking. Our therapists will give you the tools to help you gain better control over your emotions and reactions, which is key for long-term recovery.
For some individuals, Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) may also be a helpful part of the treatment plan. MAT uses medications, along with therapy, to help reduce cravings and manage mood changes. Our medical professionals will assess your individual needs to decide if MAT is right for you. It’s all part of making sure you have the best path to wellness. We take a very careful and personalized approach, making sure the medications used are safe and effective.
We also recognize the importance of family support in the recovery journey. That’s why we offer Couples Therapy. Addiction affects not only the individual but also their relationships. Couples therapy can help you rebuild trust, improve communication, and create a supportive environment that enhances your recovery. It provides a safe space for couples to address challenges and move towards healing as a team.
Our approach at Asana Recovery is all about giving you the tools and support you need to thrive. It’s about providing the perfect balance of compassionate care and evidence-based methods, so you can have a successful recovery.

We firmly believe that the internet should be available and accessible to anyone, and are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of circumstance and ability.
To fulfill this, we aim to adhere as strictly as possible to the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at the AA level. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people with a wide array of disabilities. Complying with those guidelines helps us ensure that the website is accessible to all people: blind people, people with motor impairments, visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, and more.
This website utilizes various technologies that are meant to make it as accessible as possible at all times. We utilize an accessibility interface that allows persons with specific disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user interface) and design it to their personal needs.
Additionally, the website utilizes an AI-based application that runs in the background and optimizes its accessibility level constantly. This application remediates the website’s HTML, adapts Its functionality and behavior for screen-readers used by the blind users, and for keyboard functions used by individuals with motor impairments.
If you’ve found a malfunction or have ideas for improvement, we’ll be happy to hear from you. You can reach out to the website’s operators by using the following email
Our website implements the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) technique, alongside various different behavioral changes, to ensure blind users visiting with screen-readers are able to read, comprehend, and enjoy the website’s functions. As soon as a user with a screen-reader enters your site, they immediately receive a prompt to enter the Screen-Reader Profile so they can browse and operate your site effectively. Here’s how our website covers some of the most important screen-reader requirements, alongside console screenshots of code examples:
Screen-reader optimization: we run a background process that learns the website’s components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing compliance even when updating the website. In this process, we provide screen-readers with meaningful data using the ARIA set of attributes. For example, we provide accurate form labels; descriptions for actionable icons (social media icons, search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation guidance for form inputs; element roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogues (popups), and others. Additionally, the background process scans all the website’s images and provides an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based description as an ALT (alternate text) tag for images that are not described. It will also extract texts that are embedded within the image, using an OCR (optical character recognition) technology. To turn on screen-reader adjustments at any time, users need only to press the Alt+1 keyboard combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic announcements to turn the Screen-reader mode on as soon as they enter the website.
These adjustments are compatible with all popular screen readers, including JAWS and NVDA.
Keyboard navigation optimization: The background process also adjusts the website’s HTML, and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the website operable by the keyboard. This includes the ability to navigate the website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow keys, close them with Esc, trigger buttons and links using the Enter key, navigate between radio and checkbox elements using the arrow keys, and fill them in with the Spacebar or Enter key.Additionally, keyboard users will find quick-navigation and content-skip menus, available at any time by clicking Alt+1, or as the first elements of the site while navigating with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by moving the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, and not allow the focus drift outside it.
Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.
We aim to support the widest array of browsers and assistive technologies as possible, so our users can choose the best fitting tools for them, with as few limitations as possible. Therefore, we have worked very hard to be able to support all major systems that comprise over 95% of the user market share including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera and Microsoft Edge, JAWS and NVDA (screen readers).
Despite our very best efforts to allow anybody to adjust the website to their needs. There may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible, are in the process of becoming accessible, or are lacking an adequate technological solution to make them accessible. Still, we are continually improving our accessibility, adding, updating and improving its options and features, and developing and adopting new technologies. All this is meant to reach the optimal level of accessibility, following technological advancements. For any assistance, please reach out to
