If you or a loved one is struggling with addiction, you know that it can be isolating and overwhelming. Willpower alone is typically not enough to overcome substance abuse issues. While there is no cure for addiction, professional treatment at a rehab facility can help. The first step in conquering addiction is simply admitting that you have a problem and need help. From there, you can find an addiction treatment center near you and begin the journey to recovery. At Beaches Recovery, you’ll find a peaceful, distraction-free facility where you can focus on breaking free from addiction. And as part of your personalized treatment plan, our treatment team will recommend individual therapy. This time-tested and widely used form of therapy can provide a safe space for you to work through the underlying causes of addiction, develop healthy coping skills, and begin to rebuild your life. Learn more about what makes individual therapy so effective and how it can be a key piece of your recovery.
Don’t hesitate to get the help you need. Reach out to Beaches Recovery today by calling 866.605.0532.
Beaches Recovery helped save my life. I was at beaches back in 2015 when they first opened and it was one of the best experiences of my life. The people there was amazing and they opened my eyes to the disease aspect of addiction. I met some great people while I was there and would recommend this place to anybody that wants help.

My cousin completed their program about 7 months ago and her whole life is different now. She finally got the mental health help she needed to get her over that hump. We stayed in touch while she was there and she loved the program. She is her true self now. She does self care, has stopped self medicating, started a small business which is taking off. I am just elated at what this program did for her. And my Aunt and Uncle said she had at least one staff member every single day they could get a hold which has never been the case for the last 2 places she went. Thank you Beaches!

Every addiction treatment program is different, as is every patient in treatment. The most effective treatment programs create unique plans for every individual in their care. Some components of care you’ll find in these plans include:
In addition to these treatment modalities, individual therapy is a foundational building block of many addiction treatment programs because it allows patients to spend one-on-one time with a professional.
Once a patient enters treatment, they will begin working with a team of professional counselors and clinicians. At that time, the patient necessarily enters into a “quasi-treatment” contract with the facility and its staff. The staff will help the patient beat their addiction. What the patient has to bring to the table is a willingness to focus on and commit to the process. They also have to show a desire to offer up open and honest communication.
Regardless of what other treatment modalities are available in the treatment package, individual therapy is often a primary focus. In fact, a package that includes individual therapy, group sessions, and some holistic treatment options is optimal. However, it’s the individual counseling sessions where the patient does the most critical work. They can think of it as a journey of self-discovery. There’s a good chance the patient will learn things about themselves they didn’t know or recognize. Anything less and there’s a risk the treatment process will fail, at least in part.
Is individual therapy effective? According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, individual therapy provides all of the following benefits:
When looking into addiction treatment programs, be sure to find one that offers individual therapy as part of a complete treatment plan. At Beaches Recovery, individual therapy is a foundational part of our life-changing treatment programs.

The two primary goals of individual therapy are identifying causation and developing usable coping skills for recovery. Some addiction treatment experts believe it’s not always essential to identify the root causes of addiction. However, that seems to fly in the face of common sense. How could someone overcome problems they are unable to identify?
The truth is, most people enter treatment with a lot of questions but few answers. Addiction counseling offers each patient an opportunity to get answers to questions like, “Why can’t I control my urge to use drugs?” The answer is seldom as easy as saying the patient is weak. They aren’t weak: they are struggling with a disease. Addiction causes changes in the brain that make getting through the day without drugs or alcohol to feel nearly impossible. However, experienced counselors use individual counseling sessions to delve into why an individual might have turned to drugs and alcohol in the first place. The goal is to talk through possible issues until everything is on the table.
How do you solve a problem when you can’t identify it? The short answer is you can’t. The second goal of individual counseling is to allow patients to develop useful coping skills. Ultimately, good coping skills are the key to relapse prevention. Remember, addiction is not a curable disease. At best, one can hope to render it dormant. As long as a substance use disorder lives inside the addict, it’s bound to reappear. All it takes is a little temptation and a failure to cope with it. Good coping skills are the last line of defense against this type of relapse.
Finally, a therapist can help patients prepare for their future outside of a treatment center. They might discuss possible stressful or triggering situations and come up with strategies or a series of steps to take. During therapy sessions, counselors and patients also might talk about how to develop a strong network of support for encouragement and accountability. This sort of aftercare planning can make a significant difference in maintaining sobriety for life.
Just as addiction treatment is not one-size-fits-all, every individual has different needs in therapy. There are a number of different types of individual therapy that are commonly used in treating substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health disorders. Some of the most widely used types of individual therapy include the following:
Upon entering a treatment program at Beaches Recovery, you’ll go through an assessment process that will determine which type of therapy will help you reach your goals. Many of our patients go through more than one type of individual therapy as well as group therapy as part of their treatment plan.
