Therapies

Experiential Therapy
Experiential therapy allows you to use activities such as art and music to express your emotions and work through trauma. During treatment, you may take part in art projects, musical expression, or physical challenges like an obstacle course. These allow you to process emotions in a non-traditional way.
Group Therapy
If you struggle with addiction in Maryland, it’s common to feel like no one understands you. Group therapy can help you find common perspectives and support. Some of the topics covered in group therapy include overcoming shame and guilt, improving communication, developing healthy coping skills, and building a support network.
Individual Therapy
In Maryland, individual therapy allows you to work one-on-one with a professional to address your past experiences and substance use triggers. This support and accountability help you establish recovery. Individual therapy sessions generally last 60 minutes and may include discussing a specific issue, education about specific topics, or developing life skills.
Trauma Therapy
When you’ve experienced trauma, it’s natural to try to protect yourself from further harm. Trauma-informed therapy in Maryland can help you see how substance use is connected to your past experiences and how you can learn to care for yourself in healthier ways. Trauma-informed therapy is a normal part of evidence-based treatment programs and may be a part of inpatient treatment, outpatient care, or both. Methods include sharing of experiences, peer support, mindfulness practices, and more.
