How Does Cognitive Behavioral Therapy work?
During cognitive-behavioral therapy, our therapists help clients address problematic thoughts and feelings to help overcome addiction. In addition to treating substance abuse disorder, CBT is an effective treatment for co-occurring disorders like anxiety, bipolar disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), eating disorders, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
Inner Voyage Recovery cognitive-behavioral therapists help clients identify and analyze negative thought patterns. These patterns arise from previous experiences and misconceptions or internal feelings of self-doubt, fear, or anger. Often, people turn to drugs and alcohol to self-medicate painful thoughts and feelings. Using evidence-based methodologies, we help clients find new, healthy ways to relieve pain.
Counseling sessions with a certified therapist offer a healthy, supportive space to explore personal history and identify influences on your thinking. Clients can expect therapists to identify and challenge any negative thoughts they may express and offer alternate scripts for tough situations.
Our CBT in Atlanta teaches clients proven skills to manage triggers and negative automatic responses. Individuals practice recognizing the circumstances that lead to alcohol and drug abuse and are taught methods to avoid or disengage from trigger situations whenever possible. Practicing cognitive-behavioral techniques, clinicians help clients identify and alleviate the intense emotions and thoughts that arise without relying on substance abuse to numb the pain.
As you uncover the root of negative thinking that shapes your actions, it becomes easier to identify and change resulting behaviors. Cognitive-behavioral therapy provides immediate coping techniques and meaningful results over time.
