No, you don’t need to hit “rock bottom” to benefit from therapy. Many clients seek help when they simply feel that their substance use is starting to interfere with their life, relationships, or mental health. If you’re concerned about your relationship with substances, it’s always a good time to seek support.
Addiction and substance abuse therapy is a form of psychotherapy designed to help individuals who are struggling with their use of drugs or alcohol. Whether you’re looking to stop using substances entirely or want to regain control over your consumption, this therapy provides a safe, non-judgmental space to explore the underlying causes of your substance use. It helps you develop healthier coping mechanisms, build self-awareness, and take back control of your choices, ultimately improving your mental health, relationships, and quality of life.
Addiction and substance abuse therapy might be right for you if you’re finding it difficult to manage your alcohol or drug use, whether it’s affecting your relationships, work, or overall well-being. You may want help reducing your use, or you might be ready to stop altogether. If you’ve noticed that substance use is impacting your emotional health, causing feelings of anxiety, depression, or isolation, therapy can provide the tools and support to help you make meaningful changes.
In a typical therapy session, you can expect to have an open and honest conversation with your therapist about your substance use, challenges, and goals. Sessions last about 50 minutes and include exploring triggers, developing strategies for managing cravings or stress, and setting achievable goals. Your therapist may assign activities or resources, such as journaling or mindfulness exercises, to help reinforce the strategies discussed in therapy and support your growth between sessions.
The length of therapy varies depending on your individual needs and goals. Some clients may see significant progress after just a few sessions, while others may benefit from several months of ongoing therapy. The process is flexible, with therapy sessions tailored to your pace and personal progress. Therapy can be short-term for immediate goals or long-term for more lasting support.
