How Does A Better Today’s Substance Abuse Treatment Help the Client Develop Life Skills?
Many drug and alcohol treatment facilities claim they heal the whole person; that their treatment heals the mind, body, and soul. But what does that really mean when it comes to substance abuse? Sure it is easy to say that you practice client-focused treatment, but what ABT has realized is that they never really explain how their treatment supports their claim.
A Better Today is more than happy to explain how our approach to treatment really does heal the whole person and it all starts with attention to detail because sometimes it really is the little things that make the biggest impact in our lives. ABT not only provides our clients with individualized treatment plans that focus on their needs and qualified therapists that look for co-occurring disorder symptoms; we also focus on life skill building.
Many substance abuse treatment centers just see the disease and assume that if you address the disease everything else is fixed too. This is actually far from the truth. Many people who have been struggling with a meth or heroin addiction for years or even better part of a decade, struggle with developing a healthy set of life skills.
That is the attention to detail that makes or breaks long-lasting treatment. You may have went through the steps of getting clean, but what is the quality of life like if you do not know how to communicate with others, set goals that are realistic and achievable, and develop a health routine that sets you up for your own version of success.
