Treatment Methods

After you have made the decision to face your addiction, rehab counseling is the critical step toward discovering the causes for your addiction. We do a deep dive into the many issues that can cause a person to become addicted. We find your personal triggers that cause you to respond by using drugs or alcohol.

Once you understand what triggers you, then you can find ways to neutralize these behaviors. In fact, we create a customized plan tailored to you personally. This plan gives you the mechanisms you need to manage addiction triggers and urges, responding with positive actions that keep you on the path to recovery.

Program length can vary, depending on your personal progress. When you complete this step, you’re ready to move on to Transitional Counseling.

Transitional Counseling is when you start to put the personal tools you developed in Rehab Counseling to use. While you have changed, many of the real-world situations that can trigger you addiction have not. You’re now facing them with new abilities to cope, but counseling is still important to help you navigate new challenges. This can be a very rewarding part of your recovery, and you understand that you now have new power of the disease.

Once you’ve made a successful transition back into society and learned to use your coping skills, you don’t necessarily need ongoing counseling. But you may need to periodically work with a counselor to reaffirm your recovery. Or you may help to deal with an unusual life issue or situation. As part of your custom recovery plan, we help you strategize ways to manage the unexpected and keep yourself on your path to personal growth.
