ADDICTION

Evidence-based modalities like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) can address the psychological aspects of addiction. These therapies help individuals recognize and change destructive behaviors and thought patterns. Addiction treatment is tailored to each individual's unique needs. This may involve addressing co-occurring mental health disorders, trauma, or other underlying issues that contribute to addiction.

  • Developing skills and strategies to prevent relapse is a core component of addiction treatment. Identifying triggers, creating a relapse prevention plan, and building a support network are crucial. Additionally, incorporating holistic practices like mindfulness, yoga, and meditation to help individuals manage stress and develop healthier coping mechanisms. Encouraging healthy lifestyle changes, such as regular exercise, proper nutrition, and adequate sleep, can also aid in recovery.
