Cognitive Treatment
At A Forever Recovery, we have provided a cognitive behavioral therapy treatment environment that allows our clients to seek their own spiritual paths without being forced to adhere to beliefs that are not truly their own. We respect the rights and beliefs of our clients and understand that the spiritual journey can be the most important part of anyone’s program of recovery.
In order to accomplish this, we have designated five “tracks” or paths that are used to compliment the cognitive behavioral therapy treatment that the client receives: Faith Based, Self Help or 12-step, Cognitive, Holistic, and Native American Spirituality.
Our cognitive behavioral therapy treatment track is ideal for one of several different clients:
- The client who isn’t receptive to typical 12-step drug rehab programs, nor is comfortable in a Christian Faith based environment. He may or may not be resistant to spiritual teachings, but he is seeking his own path to recovery.
- The client who believes that empowerment and overcoming ones addiction comes from within and doesn’t feel comfortable seeking strength outside of himself through spirituality. Analytical people who have a tendency to use their mind, willpower, abilities and strengths to over come addiction are an example.
- The client who is seeking to enhance his current recovery base with the benefits of understanding his belief systems, triggers and cognitive processes.has a spirituality or belief in spiritual matters.
We have a series of elements of our cognitive behavioral therapy treatment track that can provide the addict or alcoholic with the enhancement to his drug treatment program here at A Forever Recovery. These elements can include:
- S.M.A.R.T. Recovery
- Lectures by recovering addicts, alcoholics and counselors
- Personal Empowerment
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
Coupled with the intensive Inventory and Self-Discovery piece of our program, a client can uncover, discover and discard those things in his life which are blocking him off from recovering from his addictions. Removing years of guilt, shame and remorse can reveal the person that he truly is and allow him to continue his life afterwards, clean and sober…an empowered being.
We at A Forever Recovery feel that in giving the client to right to choose these spiritual enhancements to his program it actually empowers the client and makes his recovery truly his own. Unfortunately many conventional drug rehab centers tell clients that “if they don’t accept their particular brand of recovery they probably won’t stay sober”. Our goal is to help the client the discover his own recovery tools that will work for best him, and our Self Help track is an effective enhancement to the recovering person looking for recovery through support groups and recovering communites..
Our Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Treatment Counselors
In order to create such a successful approach to recovery, we have a large variety of counselors from many different modalities of drug rehabilitation available at A Forever Recovery. Some of our counselors have worked in 12-step programs, others Christian faith based drug treatment centers. Others have gotten sober themselves through cognitive programs, while others practice their own brand of spirituality. With a staff of Christians, Buddhists, Spiritual Teachers, and even athiests we feel that we can help those of our clients to find their own way when it comes to cognitive behavioral therapy treatment.
