Personalized Therapy in Alcohol Treatment

Our private alcohol treatment center is personalized to meet the needs of the individual. Each person can have distinct situations and circumstances they are dealing with. These things can be reasons behind the drinking. Alcohol treatment and therapy is personalized to a one-on-one approach; providing what the resident needs from a clinical standpoint. The treatment plan is laid out each day for each client, and gives them opportunities to learn recovery lessons with different programs.

To better personalize the experience, one-on-one therapy sessions are a part of drug and alcohol rehab. Each resident works personally with a licensed clinical counselor. This is the setting for dealing with underlying factors of addiction. Underlying factors can be based on a number of things. They can be founded in personal, family, social, and psychological factors. Caring counselors are available each day to help with therapy for these underlying things. This caring support from a counselor can be needed in dealing with the more deeply rooted problems of alcoholism.

Group Therapies for Support

the alcohol treatment and therapy center at Cirque Lodge also uses a number of different groups. Usually group therapy sessions are segregated according to gender, so that specific topics can be discussed. Groups help in laying the groundwork for future support from outpatient support groups and fellowships like Alcoholics Anonymous. Groups can focus on specific addiction topics, and can even process personal things for group discussion. Counselors moderate these groups and note progresses in the personalized treatment plan. Staff meets together each day to discuss the progress of each and every client.

When the resident has been in alcohol rehab for a time, they can begin to attend outside Alcoholics Anonymous meetings in the evenings. After a stay in our leading alcohol treatment center is completed, steady involvement in AA can be a foundation for long term sobriety. At Cirque Lodge, residents can begin the process of getting into the practice of this meeting attendance. For so many of those who have been through addiction treatment (and not just at the Cirque Lodge, but at many different treatment facilities), It was the support and strength of following the 12-steps and involvement within AA that gave them the foundation for a lasting and successful sobriety.

Experiential Therapies within an Alcohol Treatment Program

A different approach to our effective alcohol treatment center comes in with our experiential program at Cirque Lodge. Experiential work is hands on therapy; teaching lessons on recovery through performing different activities. Indoor and outdoor venues are used to arm the recovering alcoholic with the skills they need for the recovery process. Nature and the mountain are used as a venue in teaching 12-step lessons on spirituality. Even those who are not religious in any shape or form can find that needed spiritual recovery upon the mountain.

Experiential therapy activities also challenge the addictive mindset. Working with horses and working in our ropes course teach problem solving skills. These elements can be used after alcohol rehab. They can be solutions to the problem, as opposed to taking that first drink. Experiential staff members are an integral part of these challenges. They help the alcoholic/addict to realize how these elements apply to their lives. They also provide encouragement and support in completion of these challenges. At the end of each activity there is a sit down. Residents can discuss what was learned through the challenge, as well as how these things can be applied to the recovery process.

Treatment and Therapy for the Family

Cirque also provides family members of the alcoholic a chance to receive treatment, therapy and support. Alcoholism can have far reaching affects. Family members can also be suffering, due to their loved ones behaviors and habits. Therapy and support are found during our family program; which takes place every three weeks. Workshops are provided to better educate the family on the nature of addiction, and also ways family members can avoid triggers that lead to drinking. These are behaviors like enabling and codependency.

During family week special therapy sessions are provided. They come in the form of process groups and also personal family therapy sessions with a Cirque Lodge counselor. Family workshops can help to clear up misconceptions that family may have. It can tear down the barriers that were built up by the drinking and allow for open and honest communication. Family members are integral to the recovery process. Support within the home is an absolute must. Family Week can help to build this foundation of support within the home.
