Therapies

At Carus Recovery, we recognize the benefits of individual and group therapies to treat the underlying causes and conditions of addiction.  Upon admission, you will meet with our multidisciplinary team to tailor your recovery program to meet your specific needs. Our commitment to sustainable recovery is the driving force behind every therapy program that we offer.

 

Here are some of the therapies offered at Carus Recovery:

• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy “CBT”: An effective, evidence-based psychological therapy that digs deep into the negative thought patterns that lead to addiction. Clients, together with one of our licensed clinical therapists will identify unhealthy thoughts and behaviors that lead to substance abuse and replace them with fulfilling and healthy habits.

• Family Therapy: When someone suffers from substance abuse; their loved ones suffer too. Family therapy is a safe forum for clients and their families to face and address the effects of their substance abuse on their loved ones. Family members need healing too. We work with families from the very first call throughout the treatment process. Read more about Family Therapy.

 

• Dialectical Behavioral Therapy “DBT”: A type of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), this groundbreaking therapeutic approach allows individuals to work through their intense emotional reactions by normalizing and neutralizing them instead of resisting them. This type of therapy is particularly helpful for people who suffer from addiction and mental health issues, and those with suicidal thoughts or behaviors.

• Breathwork: Breathwork is an intentional, controlled, and rhythmic breathing technique that increases breath rate and oxygen levels in the body. It is shown to reduce the severity of depression and anxiety symptoms, sleep issues, inflammation, and stress, and helps people gain a greater sense of control over their body and emotional reactions.
