Addictions We Treat
Therapies Offered in Our IOP Treatment Program
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a type of psychotherapy that concentrates on recognizing and reshaping negative thought patterns that impact behavior and emotions. It is based on the idea that modifying unhelpful thinking can lead to changes in behavior and emotional well-being. CBT is a goal-oriented approach widely used to treat a variety of mental health conditions, including anxiety, depression, and substance use disorders. It teaches individuals coping strategies for dealing with challenging situations.1
Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) is a type of cognitive-behavioral therapy that focuses on the psychosocial aspects of treatment. The main principle of DBT is to balance opposing forces. By using acceptance and change strategies, DBT aims to help individuals effectively manage their emotions, improve relationships, and live more mindfully. DBT is especially helpful for treating personality disorders, such as borderline personality disorder, and conditions involving significant emotional dysregulation.2
Individual therapy consists of one-on-one sessions between a client and a therapist, with a focus on understanding the underlying issues and behaviors contributing to substance use. It offers a private setting for individuals to explore their emotions, triggers, and past experiences that impact their addiction. This personalized approach helps in developing customized strategies for coping and recovery, making it a vital aspect of effective addiction treatment programs.3
