Do I Need Individual Addiction Care?

Drug abuse is a common problem throughout the US. Unfortunately, it is not always easy to get help with the stigma of addiction. Even when someone accepts that they have an addiction, they still need to find the right addiction program. They may have problems finding the right individual addiction care they need. With the right treatment and support, though, clients can begin recovering from their addiction.

How Does Individual Addiction Care Work?

Individualized care can include different therapy options and medical programs as well as complete mind, body, spirit healing. The main goal is to tailor the program to provide individual addiction care. Each person and addiction is different. There is not a one-size-fits-all approach to addictions. The individual’s family, the drug of choice, history of trauma and medical history impact their addiction. Because of this, they need a treatment program that is just as unique.

If someone suffered from abuse as a child, then they may be treating their past trauma with drugs. They need trauma-based care to move on from the pain and become sober. Meanwhile, someone who suffers from depression or anxiety may use drugs to self-medicate. Going through drug and alcohol detox only solves the physical problem. The client may also need dual diagnosis treatment for their depression in order to recover.

Because people have different experiences, medical needs, and histories, a cookie-cutter program is rarely enough. Individual addiction care incorporates all of the individual’s history into the treatment plan. Whether the client needs dual diagnosis treatment or CBT approaches to treatment, they can get the care they need.

What Is Dual Diagnosis Treatment?

Many clients use program options like dual diagnosis treatment. When someone gets addiction treatment, they may also need help for underlying mental disorders and health problems. Addiction and co-occurring disorders both require treatment. Otherwise, the client may relapse if they try to self-medicate again.

In the right program, clients receive support for their underlying disorder plus the addiction. Treating one without the other would be ineffective. Dual diagnosis treatment provides programs for mental health and addiction that work together against the disorders.

Programs to support mental health and heal from addiction include:

• Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT)
• Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT)
• PTSD and trauma therapy
• Motivational interviewing
• Psychotherapy
• Individual and family therapy
• Gender-responsive group therapy

What Treatment Options Are Available?

During the intake process, clients discuss their medical history and treatment needs. The addiction specialist and the client will determine what type of individualized treatment they need.

The client can join programs that reflect their interests, like art, yoga, or music therapy. The drug and alcohol rehab center also provides options for individual, group and family therapy. The client can also get addiction treatment options and therapies such as:

• Mindfulness-based treatment
• Anger management
• Community activities like volleyball, surfing, fishing or camping
