Our Georgia Addiction Treatment Programs
Learning to overcome substance use disorders comes in stages. The first type of treatment is a detox program. This provides a place to live while medical and psychological clinicians keep the person safe as they move through the challenging first days of detoxification.
Many people move from detox directly to inpatient rehab. They still live in a facility where they progress in learning the initial recovery lessons taught in detox. As well, dual diagnosis treatment is a popular choice for many. This provides treatment for those who struggle with a mental health disorder along with their addiction. All levels of care prepare a person to leave treatment with a strong foundation of recovery and the ability to resist triggers to relapse.

A therapist meets one-on-one with the individual to discuss the root causes of their addiction. Possible mental health disorders can also be addressed. The person learns valuable new coping skills to help them make real progress.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
This helps the person draw a correlation between their emotions and thoughts and their resulting behaviors. They learn effective coping skills to help them make wiser choices.
Dialectical Behavioral Therapy
This type of therapy helps people resolve the contradiction between their current selves and the goals they want to achieve.

Peer support from people who understand the struggle of staying in recovery proves valuable for everyone in the group. They can discuss their own experiences and general topics, and brainstorm ways to stay strong in their sobriety.

The therapist supervises family members in sessions as they discuss how the addiction has affected the individual and the family. They learn conflict resolution and how to communicate with each other more effectively.
Dual Diagnosis Treatment
