Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is a psycho-social intervention that is the most widely used evidence-based practice for treating addictions.  It is a short-term, goal-oriented psychotherapy treatment that takes a hands-on, practical approach to problem-solving

Motivational Interviewing

Motivation is essential for progression in addiction treatment.  Motivational interviewing is a psychotherapeutic approach that attempts to move an individual away from a state of indecision or uncertainty and towards finding motivation to making positive decisions and accomplishing established goals.  The therapist becomes a person of support, allowing the client to make their own choices and arrive at their own conclusions without feeling outside pressure to do so.

Structured Relapse Prevention

Structured Relapse Prevention is an effective program for clients seeking to maintain change and avoid relapse. Structured relapse prevention therapy is a form of cognitive behavior therapy designed to help individuals successfully maintain their goals after they’ve completed their addiction treatment.  It’s designed to help them understand, anticipate, and manage their potential for relapse.
