Individual Therapy
Individual therapy is a fundamental component of every successful addiction treatment program. At Cornerstone Recovery, we have a team of licensed, experienced, and compassionate therapists on staff who work closely with clients on a regular basis. Psychotherapy is utilized for a number of reasons and can be beneficial in addressing underlying disorders in addition to substance abuse and dependence. One of the main goals of the individual therapy program is helping clients identify relapse triggers, and develop healthy and effective coping and relapse prevention skills. Individual therapy sessions take place at least twice a week. Clients sit down with their assigned therapist in a one-on-one session, where individual issues are thoroughly addressed. Addiction affects everyone in different ways, and everyone will have a varying personal experience. Individual therapy allows for a more comprehensive and personalized approach to recovery.
In individual therapy sessions, clients explore the unique hurdles they face in early recovery and work through relapse triggers and psychological cravings. Individual therapy is also extremely beneficial for clients who are simultaneously struggling with a mental health condition like depression, anxiety or bipolar disorder. Individual therapy is part of our dual diagnosis treatment program ( as well as our standard addiction treatment program). Two of the therapeutic methods we most commonly employ include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). CBT focuses on the development of coping skills that will help combat self-destructive behavioral patterns and severely harmful emotions.
Group Therapy
Group therapy is another fundamental component of successful addiction treatment. At Cornerstone Recovery, group therapy sessions are held twice a week. In our group therapy program, numerous recovery-related topics are addressed, and a collective conversation is facilitated by one of our licensed group therapists. During these conversations, clients have the ability to offer one another support and insight and relate to one another on a deep and honest level. Working through issues that arise in a safe and supportive group setting not only fosters feelings of community and belonging, but it allows clients to work on effective communications skills while forming lasting bonds with one another.
What is Relapse Prevention?
The main goal of addiction treatment is to prevent future relapse. If an individual has completed all of the phases of his or her recovery program and ultimately relapses after transitioning back into independent living, he or she will have a start back at square one. Of course, there are many other important treatment goals-but without relapse prevention, completing these goals will have all been for naught. This is a cognitive-behavioral approach based on the development of crucial life skills, geared towards helping an individual grasp and implement strategies that will successfully prevent future relapse. There are several things that cause relapse, including internal experiences (unpleasant and unmanageable emotions) and external triggers (spending time in a triggering environment, running into someone who is associated with past substance use). Our relapse prevention techniques vary on a person-to-person basis, and individualized techniques, as well as plans of action, are thoroughly developed in an inpatient treatment setting. The client and the clinician work together in assessing potentially high-risk situations and developing viable plans of action should these situations present themselves. Relapse prevention is an absolutely crucial part of every recovery program. At Cornerstone Recovery, we begin working with clients on realistic and tangible ways to prevent future relapses from the moment they walk in the door. At Cornerstone Recovery through our relapse prevention program, clients develop effective coping skills, and transition back into independent living feeling confident in their ability to tackle all challenging situations and circumstances.
