Therapies

Cognitive Behavior Therapy
Not everything we think is true or helpful. Cognitive behavioral therapy in Massachusetts teaches you to challenge distorted thinking so you can see things more clearly and choose healthier responses. CBT is a common part of both inpatient and outpatient substance use treatment and may be used to help with skill-building, overcoming problematic behavior, and managing substance use triggers.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy
People want to improve their situation but don’t always know how. Dialectical behavioral therapy in Massachusetts teaches you healthy coping mechanisms and improves your confidence so you can build a better life. DBT is a common part of both inpatient and outpatient substance use treatment and may be used to help with skill-building, overcoming problematic behavior, and managing substance use triggers.
Experiential Therapy
In Massachusetts, experiential therapy helps you express your emotions in non-traditional ways. This makes it much easier to reach long-term recovery. Experiential therapy involves a variety of activities that can make it easier to process trauma and emotions and allow you to break through some of the root issues that hold you back from recovery.
Family Therapy
During family therapy in Massachusetts, clients and their loved ones can address dysfunctional relationships, resentments, and conflicts in order to create healthier relationships that support the client’s recovery. Family therapy sessions generally last 60 to 90 minutes and may include discussing marital issues, codependency, grief, domestic violence, trauma, and other topics that impact families. The goal is to create healthier relationships that can support recovery.
Group Therapy
During group therapy in Massachusetts, each client has a chance to share their unique experiences and feelings about the discussion topic. This creates accountability and support. Group therapy is a common part of both inpatient and outpatient substance use treatment, and may be used to help with skill-building, processing, and to present educational information.
Individual Therapy
You’re not alone as you work through addiction in Massachusetts. Individual therapy gives you a professional who’s on your side to help you build a new life. Individual focuses on improving both behavioral and emotional health. You may explore thought processes, develop motivation to change, and/or explore past events that may have played a part in your substance use.
Trauma Therapy
During trauma-informed therapy in Massachusetts, you’ll be given the tools you need to manage your emotions and understand what happened in a healthier way. When you receive trauma-informed therapy, it may include peer support, grief counseling, medications to support mental health, and developing healthier responses to emotional triggers.
