Psychotherapy For Addiction Recovery In Los Angeles

Psychotherapy Program

Addiction is a very complex mental illness, and it takes quality treatment in order to recover from it fully. In order to recover, it takes much more than losing your physical dependence to the substance after detox. True recovery comes from overcoming the psychological dependence, which happens because you turn to substances for a variety of reasons. Through psychotherapy at a qualified addiction treatment center, you’ll learn how to stay sober as well as improve your mental health.

What is Psychotherapy?

In short, psychotherapy is the treatment of mental health through ways other than taking medications. While there are medications that can help improve your mental health, it’s important to know how beneficial therapy is. A common mistake people make when it comes to their mental health is believing medications can fix all of your problems. The reality is that medications for mental illness are simply there to help relieve some symptoms.

It’s important to realize that while you won’t be receiving addictive medications in treatment, you should never only rely on pills. In many cases of mental illness, there’s a cause of the symptoms, and these require additional forms of treatment. Through therapy, you’ll get down to the roots of your mental health issues and find solutions. The medications help you get to a baseline, but the rest of the work is up to you.
