Individual Therapy Program cleveland ohioAs our clients work towards healing and overcome challenges on the road to recovery, one of the most helpful tools we offer is individual therapy. One-on-one sessions with an experienced therapist can be an invaluable resource during treatment.

Through individual therapy, you can learn how to cope with daily stress in healthy ways. In one-on-one sessions, you’ll not only address substance use issues but mental health issues and any other personal challenges you may face.

What Is Individual Therapy?

Individual therapy allows for more personalized discussions during sessions than group therapy. We use several different counseling techniques in our individual therapy program. Each one of our clients has been through unique experiences and has different goals for treatment. Many clients suffer from different forms of addiction and varying levels of severity. Therefore, our addiction treatment specialists and therapists choose from various types of individual therapy to accommodate the needs of each client. Common approaches that our professionals use in our individual counseling program include:

  • Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) – This type of therapy helps clients understand why they react to certain situations or emotions in the ways they do. CB the reasons behind their behavior. CBT can help clients modify negative thought patterns that could lead to risky behavior.
  • Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) – This therapy helps those in recovery recognize uncomfortable thoughts and learn to live in the present moment. DBT can also help minimize harmful behaviors.
  • Contingency management – This approach to treatment gives clients incentives to reinforce positive behavior such as abstinence.
  • Motivational enhancement therapy – This type of therapy works best in the early stages of treatment and pushes clients to embrace their recovery plan fully.

Individual therapy is designed to complement group therapy sessions. Each week, our clients meet with their therapist one-on-one and can discuss their progress, gain new insights, and even talk about what they’ve been learning in group therapy.
