Addiction Therapy and Substance Abuse Counseling

Addiction therapy helps people recover from drug and alcohol addiction. Through evidence-based therapies and caring support, we address the root causes of substance use. Together, we can build a strong foundation for your recovery.

What Is Addiction Counseling?

Addiction counseling provides structured support for people struggling with substance use disorder. At Granite Recovery Centers, we use a holistic approach to addiction recovery. In addition to clinical counseling services led by trained mental health professionals, we offer a variety of evidence-based therapies that promote well-being.

How Does Addiction Counseling Aid Recovery?

Addiction affects both the mind and body. Mental and emotional regulation is an important part of long-term recovery. Addiction counseling helps people understand dependence and substance use. You may attend one-on-one therapy to address the root of your addiction, or group therapy to find support amongst peers.

Substance use disorder changes the way you think and act, making it hard to stop without help. Your brain chemistry alters when you use substances regularly, leading to dependence. Remember that addiction is a disease, and it can happen to anyone.

Drug Addiction Therapy

Drug addiction therapy provides specialized care for individuals struggling with substance use disorder. Each substance needs a different therapeutic approach as withdrawal symptoms vary from drug to drug. Recovery can be both physically and emotionally challenging, and therapy helps people in recovery manage these symptoms while addressing the underlying reasons for addiction.

Alcohol Addiction Therapy

Alcohol addiction therapy helps people stop drinking safely and rebuild their lives. Many experience withdrawal when they quit alcohol, which can be uncomfortable or dangerous. Alcohol withdrawal syndrome requires supportive therapy and medical care so you can detox safely. Some people also benefit from medication-assisted treatment (MAT). This treatment option reduces cravings and lowers the risk of relapse.

The Role of an Addiction Counselor

An addiction counselor provides guidance and support to those in recovery. They help people manage their emotions, develop coping skills, and stay focused on recovery. Counselors listen without judgment and offer tools to handle stress, triggers, and setbacks. They also provide encouragement and accountability for those who donโ€™t have support from family or friends.

Addiction Rehabilitation Therapy Services Available at Granite

We offer counseling services to support individuals in all stages of recovery. Our addiction rehabilitation therapies are evidence-based and have proven success rates.

Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT for addiction helps highlight negative thoughts and replace them with healthier ones. This approach builds coping skills and prevents relapse by changing harmful patterns.

Motivational Interviewing

Motivational interviewing (MI) helps people explore their reasons for change. It strengthens their motivation and commitment to recovery through guided conversations.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

DBT for addiction teaches emotional regulation and coping strategies for stress. It helps individuals manage intense feelings that often lead to substance use.

Medication-Assisted Treatment

Medication-assisted treatment uses FDA-approved medications to reduce cravings and withdrawal symptoms. It supports long-term recovery by stabilizing brain chemistry and preventing relapse.

Trauma Therapy

Trauma therapy helps individuals process painful past experiences that contribute to addiction. Addressing trauma can reduce triggers and improve emotional well-being.

Grief and Loss Therapy

Grief and loss therapy helps individuals cope with emotional pain linked to addiction. It provides healthy ways to process loss and avoid turning to substances for relief.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)

EMDR for addiction helps people safely reprocess traumatic memories. This therapy reduces emotional distress and supports long-term healing.

Addiction Recovery Services and Relapse Prevention

Long-term recovery depends on a holistic approach and healthy lifestyle changes. We offer therapies beyond counseling to support well-being and prevent relapse.

Yoga Therapy

Yoga therapy combines movement and breathing exercises to promote relaxation and reduce stress. It helps you build self-awareness and strengthens the mind-body connection.

Meditation

Meditation in recovery trains the mind to stay present and focused, bringing down anxiety and cravings. Practicing meditation regularly can improve emotional balance and mental clarity.

Mindfulness Training

Mindfulness training teaches people to stay aware of their emotions without reacting impulsively. This helps lower the risk of relapse, encouraging thoughtful decision-making.

Addiction Therapies for Holistic Wellbeing

Scientific evidence supports the idea that physical well-being promotes recovery and mental health. Holistic therapies like massage, acupuncture, nutrition, and nature walks support this. Family therapy also plays a key role in long-term success. These approaches help reduce stress, improve physical health, and encourage long-term recovery.

Levels of Care for Substance Abuse Recovery

At Granite Recovery Centers, we offer different levels of care for all stages of recovery. From residential rehab programs to aftercare support, we help you build healthy habits and learn life skills.

Medical Detox
A medical detox program is a safe environment for people to withdraw from drugs or alcohol under medical supervision. This process helps manage withdrawal symptoms and reduces risks.
In inpatient rehab, you get structured 24/7 support in a residential setting. This level of care lets you focus entirely on recovery while receiving intensive therapy and medical care.
A partial hospitalization program offers structured treatment while allowing you to return home at night. It includes therapy, counseling, and medical support for those who need high care but not full-time supervision. html Copy Edit
An intensive outpatient program provides more flexible treatment. You can easily maintain work, family, or school responsibilities during IOP. It supports recovery through therapy, counseling, and relapse prevention skills.
Outpatient drug rehab is a lower level of care that allows people to attend treatment sessions slotted into their normal day. It offers continued support for those transitioning from higher levels of care.
Our sober living facilities in New Hampshire are a structured, drug-free living environment for those in recovery. These homes offer accountability, peer support, and guidance as you adjust to sober living.
