Recovery focus
Co-occurring
Other focus areas
Evidence-based approaches
DBT
Dialectical Behavior Therapy. Pairs acceptance with change. Especially useful when emotions feel too big to ride out without acting on them.
Family systems
Family Systems work. Brings the people closest to you into the recovery picture, since urges and relationships rarely live in separate boxes.
Group therapy
Group Therapy. A small facilitated circle where people working on similar struggles practice naming what is hard, hearing themselves in others, and learning skills together. The room is the medicine.
Trauma-informed care
Trauma-Informed Care. Approaches addiction as something layered on top of unprocessed trauma, not in isolation. Pacing matters more than confrontation.
