Many treatment providers use the twelve step minnesota method to address addiction, however, there is a great deal of evidence that showns it only helps a small percentage of people. We specialise in non-12 step methods that have been proven to be affective for not just addiction but also anxiety, depression and eating disorders. We also provide emotional regulation training, which many mental health perofessionals are coming to realise is essential for treating many of the prevalent psychological disorders.
Addiction, anxiety and depression are very closely connected and many people often end up in a vicious cycle of trying to stop using or drinking but without better coping methods, the underlying anxiety and depression make it very difficult to cope with life. So the user returns to active drinking or using, which in itself makes the anxiety and depression worse.
Relapse is a very common problem when people try to get clean and sober. We will help people navigate relapses and help them to understand what triggered it and also how to avoid it again in the future.
