CBT Therapy ( Cognitive Behavioral Therapy ) Strategies used to change behavioral and thinking patterns. These strategies include: 1. Unhelpful ways of thinking... Learning to recognize one's distortions in thinking that are creating problems, and then to reevaluate them in light of reality. 2. Learned patterns of unhelpful behavior... Learning to recognize one's distortions in thinking that are creating problems, and then to reevaluate them in light of reality. 3. Importance of being your true self in order to lead the most fulfilling life... Learning to develop a greater sense of confidence in one's own abilities. [ These three Strategies are based on the principle that everyone has their own unique way of looking at the world, and the whole person. Allowing individuals to observe their own behaviors and the ability to use their personal instincts to find growth, can impact one's choices and actions by becoming more effective in their lives and learn better ways of coping with them. ] |
Substance Use Disorder and Recovery
provides an atmosphere of support, empathy and trust, that allows the individual to share their feelings without fear of judgment. By targeting ones personal needs, we enhance ones sense of understanding of Addiction, which plays a vital role in ones recovery process. We all have felt the pain of addiction and stared it in the eyes whether it has to do with feeling Lonely, Worthlessness, Unloved, Shame, Abandonment, Not Good Enough or Abuse. By confronting the issues we are able to up root ourselves out of non-fertilized soil and replant ourselves in fertilized soil, which will allow us to grow and produce a life we desire. Breaking the vicious cycle will enable one to have a clear understanding of one's own repetitive habits, peeling back layers of Substance Abuse and making an effort to understand and accept guidance. We will use various techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Humanistic Therapy, and Holistic Therapy to bring to light underlining issues. Humanistic Therapy A tailored approach that focuses on a person’s individual nature, rather than categorizing groups of people with similar characteristics as having the problems. It's talk therapy that explores how a person feels in the here and now. It focuses on helping people achieve their full potential, and become more self aware and accepting of themselves. Holistic Therapy Wellness approach: The purpose of wellness counseling is to assist individuals to maximize their quality of life and longevity, by discarding poor health habits and adopting healthy day to day practices which helps clients to heal by taking the entire human being and their life experiences into consideration. It involves the recognition of your problems, discomforts and the underlying imbalances behind them, whether physical or mental. |
