Common approaches to Addiction

Starting Addiction

What is addiction counseling?

Addiction counseling therapists at Thriveworks in Fort Lauderdale, FL can help people manage their urges to use the substance or engage in the activity they’re addicted to. In addition, it can help people manage the challenges that stem from their addiction, from relationship issues to problems at work, as well as those whose addiction may stem from issues like trauma.

How does addiction counseling work?

Addiction counseling at Thriveworks in Fort Lauderdale, FL works by helping one understand the underlying causes of their addiction, teaching them coping strategies, and recognizing their specific triggers. Long-term or ongoing addiction counseling can also help to prevent relapse.

Is addiction counseling conducted in person or online?

Addiction counseling at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.

How long does addiction counseling last?

The length of addiction counseling depends on the individual’s needs, the extent and severity of their addiction, and the problems that might stem from it. That said, people can make meaningful progress in addiction counseling in the first weeks to months.

Am I Addicted? What Are the Signs and Symptoms of Addiction?

It’s important that you know what addiction looks like so you can recognize when your alcohol or substance use has gotten out of control and get the help that you need. Here are several behavioral signs of those with an addiction to pay attention to:

  1. Obsessive thoughts and behaviors: Do you obsess over using the desired substance? Do you put important responsibilities on the backburner to acquire or use the substance?
  2. Loss of control: Have you tried to stop using or cut back on the amount that you use, but you’ve failed to do so?
  3. Denial: Have loved ones expressed their concern, but you insist that there is nothing to worry about?

Do you exhibit any of the above behavioral signs of addiction? In addition, do any of the following physical symptoms of addiction sound familiar?

  • Aggression or irritability
  • Agitation or frustration
  • Body odor
  • Slurred speech
  • Bloodshot eyes
  • Insomnia and other sleep disturbances

You might also experience loss of appetite, trembling, nausea, and feelings of depression when you try to cut back on the substance or go a given period of time without using. If you exhibit any combination of the above symptoms and think you might have an addiction or substance abuse problem, get the help that you need. If you are in Broward County, Thriveworks Fort Lauderdale can provide you with that addiction help.

I recently switched from "Doctors On Demand" to "Thriveworks." I am seeing both a psychiatrist and a talk therapist. Both have thus far been exceptional. My psychiatrist is thorough in evaluating how medications are effecting me and advising possible alternatives if we need to reconsider a course of action. I appreciate his holistic approach to my treatment, probing how diet and other lifestyle choices may impact my emotional well being. My talk therapist listens carefully to me, shares a central theme that emerges from our session and recommends exercises that help delve deeper into issues that impact my ability to cope and thrive. I amvery happy with their service. Thank you.

Pedro is an excellent clinician who's primary concern is his clients wellbeing. He goes above and beyond to provide the best clinical care for his patients, and creates an individualized treatment plan to help assist with their specific needs. The clinical world is far better off having someone like this practicing in the field.
