What Is individual herapy?
Individual therapy offers a private, one-on-one setting where clients work directly with a licensed therapist. These sessions are designed to help individuals explore the underlying emotional, psychological, or behavioral patterns that may contribute to substance use or other life challenges.
Benefits of individual therapy

Personalized care tailored to your unique needs
-
A safe space for self-expression and emotional healing
-
Targeted coping strategies for stress, cravings, and relapse prevention
-
Support for co-occurring mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, or trauma
-
Consistent guidance and accountability during recovery
Our clinicians use evidence-based therapies like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), solution-focused approaches, and trauma-informed care to help clients build a foundation for sustainable sobriety.
What is group therapy?
Group therapy brings individuals with shared experiences together in a supportive, therapist-led setting. These sessions allow participants to learn from one another, gain insights, and find solidarity with people facing similar challenges. Group therapy encourages empathy, vulnerability, and the realization that no one is alone in their recovery.
Benefits of group therapy
-
Peer support and shared understanding
-
Opportunities to develop communication and social skills
-
Encouragement and accountability from others on the same path
