Cognitive behavioral therapy

Refers to a form of therapy that focuses on identifying and changing negative thought patterns. Clients work with a therapist, either individually, in a family setting, or in a group setting, to identify and replace unproductive thoughts with more positive and realistic ones. The client is encouraged to be an active participant in the therapy process.

Contingency management/motivational incentives

The positive reinforcement treatment approach, often used in the treatment of drug and alcohol abuse, rewards patients for taking positive steps towards their recovery.

Motivational interviewing

A counseling method that recognizes the common occurrence of hesitation and indecision in making changes. Instead of immediately targeting change, the approach focuses on increasing motivation for change.

Relapse prevention

A cognitive behavioral therapy designed to treat individuals with alcohol addiction and later adapted for those struggling with cocaine addiction. This approach is based on the belief that learning processes play a crucial role in the formation of negative behavior patterns. Patients are taught to recognize and change these behaviors. The relapse prevention component involves several cognitive-behavioral strategies aimed at promoting sobriety and providing support in Des Moines in case of relapse.

Substance use disorder counseling

A brief form of therapy that has been applied to a range of disorders including opioid drug dependence and cocaine addiction. It involves the use of supportive methods, which allow the patient to express their personal experiences, and expressive techniques, which help the patient work through relationship issues and gain a deeper self-awareness.
