Therapies for Addiction Recovery
Comprehensive and Compassionate Rehab Care in Georgia
Addiction preys on people from all walks of life, and getting and staying sober takes more than willpower. Because so many addictive substances rewire the brain and create physical dependencies, people struggling with addiction will need medical supervision and support to safely detox. The journey to recovery does not stop there, however. To stay sober, individuals must explore and interrogate the factors driving their addictions, unlearn negative behaviors and thought patterns, and implement new strategies for resisting temptation.
At the Georgia Recovery Campus, we are proud to provide a variety of addiction therapies that give our patients the treatments and techniques needed to achieve long-term recoveries. By taking a dual diagnosis approach to treatment, we simultaneously target the addiction itself as well as the underlying mental health disorders that may be driving it. Plus, our gorgeous campus and its many amenities are designed to support the varied needs of our patients, giving them a healing and contemporary environment that promotes reflection, recreation, and rehabilitation. We are confident that our dedicated, knowledgeable staff can provide you or your loved one with the effective treatments needed to holistically heal your spirit, body, and mind.

How We Approach Therapy for Addiction Recovery in Georgia
When it comes to effectively treating addiction, we recognize that no two patients are the same. Each individual’s recovery journey is unique and requires a tailored approach for optimal results. We take into account each patient’s personal circumstances when designing a treatment plan. By understanding the patient’s history with addiction, lifestyle, and psychological makeup, we can develop a comprehensive program that accommodates their needs while meaningfully addressing the factors that may have contributed to the development of their addiction. We believe that personalized care is paramount in facilitating long-term recovery from substance abuse disorders.
Our therapies for addiction recovery include three separate clinical tracks:
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). CBT is a form of psychotherapy that focuses on helping patients understand, identify, and modify the underlying thoughts, beliefs, and behaviors that contribute to their addictive patterns. By working with one of our compassionate therapists, patients can learn to recognize patterns in their thinking and behavior that trigger substance abuse. This allows them to develop healthier coping strategies to manage their own emotions and triggers. The goal of this approach is to develop a set of coping skills that can be used in place of substance-seeking cues. We may use cognitive restructuring techniques to challenge negative thinking patterns or exposure therapy to reduce cravings for drugs or alcohol. Our team may also explore other tools like relaxation exercises and assertiveness training. By combining these techniques and treatments with individual counseling sessions, group support meetings, and lifestyle changes, our patients obtain an understanding of their addictive behaviors and create lasting changes in their lives.

The Georgia Recovery Campus also offers an array of experiential modalities, including:
- Acupuncture. This technique has been used to treat various medical conditions for centuries. In recent years, it has also been used as an adjunctive therapy to help individuals recover from addiction. Acupuncture helps reduce cravings and withdrawal symptoms by stimulating certain points of the body to restore balance and promote relaxation. Using acupuncture in conjunction with our other therapies for addiction recovery can in many cases reduce the likelihood of relapse and improve patient outcomes.
- Massage Therapy. Massage therapy can in some instances be an effective and holistic treatment for addiction. It has been used to reduce stress, improve mood, promote relaxation, and decrease the cravings and withdrawal symptoms associated with substance abuse disorders. Regular massage sessions can activate the body’s natural healing response, encouraging a sense of well-being and reducing feelings of anxiety or depression. Massage therapy can also be used to help individuals process traumatic memories and emotions associated with their addiction. By using gentle touch and pressure to relax tense muscles, our massage therapists are able to create a safe space in which our patients can explore their past experiences without being overwhelmed or triggered by them. This type of therapeutic touch encourages the release of endorphins, which helps individuals cope with difficult emotions in a healthier way.
- Mindfulness Groups. In mindfulness groups, participants are encouraged to focus on their breathing, observe their thoughts, and notice the sensations in their bodies. This practice helps them become better at recognizing the physical and emotional signals associated with drug or alcohol use, which allows them to gain insight into how those substances are impacting their lives. It also enables them to develop strategies for managing cravings in a healthier way. We typically incorporate mindfulness groups as adjunct therapy alongside traditional treatments.
- Recreational Therapy. Recreational therapy is a form of holistic treatment that utilizes activities such as sports, art, music, and leisure to promote physical, psychological, and emotional well-being. It has been shown to be effective in treating addiction by helping individuals build healthier coping strategies while engaging in fun and enjoyable activities. Our state-of-the-art campus includes a gym, pickleball courts, volleyball courts, basketball courts, and more.
- Yoga. Yoga can be an effective tool for managing cravings because it provides an alternative outlet for energy release when faced with intense emotions or withdrawal symptoms associated with addiction recovery. By focusing on their breath and engaging in physical movements that promote flexibility and strength, individuals can learn how to effectively cope with cravings without resorting to substance use. In addition to reducing cravings, regular yoga classes also help people form healthier habits that support lasting sobriety.
With proper treatment, any addiction is beatable. To learn more about our therapies for addiction recovery, call (478) 216-1110 or contact us online.
