We know how it feels to struggle with addiction and understand the courage it takes to seek help.
At Atlas Healthcare Group, our individual therapy sessions for addiction are designed to support you or your loved one on the path to healing. With a compassionate, tailored approach, our expert therapists will work with you to develop the skills and coping strategies needed for lasting recovery and a healthier, more fulfilling life.
Understanding Individual Therapy for Addiction
Defining Individual Therapy
This is a type of talk therapy where clients work one-on-one with a licensed therapist. During these private sessions, you will learn effective coping strategies for reprocessing difficult emotions, managing addictive behaviors, and promoting healthy behaviors and self-awareness.
These sessions are custom-tailored to your individual needs and recovery goals.
Benefits of Individual Therapy
Individual counseling sessions give you a safe space to talk openly about your thoughts, emotions, and experiences. This helps you gain essential insights into your life and allows your therapist to determine the best coping strategies. Some of the many benefits include:
- Safe and Confidential Space
Therapy provides a private, judgment-free setting where you can process complex emotions and receive high-quality, personalized care. - Customized Progress Tracking and Treatment Plans
Your therapist will monitor your progress closely, adjusting your treatment plan as needed to ensure you achieve the best possible outcomes. - Flexible and Comfortable Pacing
You control the pace of your sessions, giving you peace of mind that you will not share experiences and concerns before you are emotionally ready. We also strive to accommodate requests for additional sessions or half-sessions whenever possible (depending on availability).
Therapeutic Approaches in Individual Therapy
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT helps you recognize that, while you cannot control every situation, you can control how you interpret and respond to them. By changing the way you think and behave, you can develop healthier perspectives and coping strategies.
CBT is especially effective for those struggling with anxiety and depression, but its benefits extend to other mental and physical health challenges as well.
Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT)
DBT is a specialized form of CBT designed for those who experience very intense emotions. It focuses on teaching skills to manage and regulate emotions effectively. It is especially beneficial for treating borderline personality disorder (BPD), self-harm and suicidal behavior, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), substance use disorder (SUD), eating disorders, depression, and anxiety.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)Therapy
EMDR helps individuals process and resolve traumatic memories in a safe, supportive environment. This therapy involves guided recall (of distressing memories) while performing specific eye movements or tapping sequences. This technique helps reduce the intensity of the associated distress.
Addressing Co-occurring Disorders
Integrated Treatment Plans
At Atlas Healthcare Group, we take a comprehensive approach to recovery care by combining individual therapy for substance abuse and mental health disorders. Our licensed clinicians design personalized treatment plans to address the root causes of addiction and their effects on your emotional and mental well-being.
This holistic approach often combines therapies like CBT, DBT, EMDR, and medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to help you overcome addiction. It also helps you better manage your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, which is essential for supporting long-lasting recovery.
The Recovery Process
Building Coping Strategies
Building strong coping strategies is key to staying sober. Our holistic treatment approach focuses on nurturing your body, mind, and spirit, helping you manage daily stress and triggers with greater confidence.
Whether you’re participating in our residential inpatient, partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient, or outpatient programs, our licensed clinicians provide personalized support to help you manage stress, discover healthy hobbies, cultivate new friendships, make healthy lifestyle choices, and find healthy ways to avoid triggers and a return to use.
Ongoing Support and Aftercare
Your journey doesn’t end when your personalized treatment is complete. Our dedicated care team will work with you to create a customized aftercare plan to prevent a return to use and support long-term sobriety.
This plan may include ongoing emotional support, educational resources, and opportunities to participate in social events. These work together to help you build resilience, maintain progress, and stay focused on living a healthy, sober life.
