Looking at What Causes Addiction

Attachment Large Size Large Wp Post Image

If you are a woman in search of freedom from alcohol and drugs, The Willows at Red Oak Recovery is here to help. When people are struggling with addiction, it is easy to focus on the symptoms rather than the root of what causes addiction in the first place. Our experts have a holistic approach to recovery that focuses on the addiction itself along with the underlying causes to help our clients succeed for the rest of their lives. For women’s addiction treatment in NC, contact the experts at the Willows at Red Oak today.

What Causes the Addiction Is as Important as the Addiction Itself

At The Willows at Red Oak Recovery, our experts believe treating the cause of the addiction is a significant part of treating the addiction. That is why we offer trauma-informed treatment services that take a multidisciplinary approach to recovery. Whether it be emotional, mental, physical, or even spiritual trauma that is the root of your addiction, our experts will do more than treat just the physical symptoms. Working with you to get to the bottom of your addiction on every level and then to offer coping skills for when you get back home is how we provide a holistic approach to addiction rehab.

Mental Health Professionals Help Get Below the Surface of Addiction

After treating the physical effects of the addiction, it is important to have trained mental health professionals ready to get to the bottom of the mental and emotional causes of the addiction. Many women who struggle with addiction also struggle with mental health and behavioral issues. To cure one without the other does very little to help in the long run. Some of the most common mental health issues we deal with include PTSD, depression, anxiety, and other co-occurring disorders. Our dual diagnosis treatment helps women cope with the mental and emotional issues behind the addiction so that they can leave The Willows at Red Oak and successfully enter back into their lives.

Coping Skills

The three reasons that most women take drugs or drink alcohol are to get a feeling, get rid of a feeling, or create an escape. Sometimes, using alcohol or drugs is their only coping skill, even though it is destructive. One of the ways that we help women overcome addiction is by providing them with healthy coping skills that they can use for the rest of their lives. When you are at our treatment center, you have experts with you and available at all times, but when you leave The Willows at Red Oak and enter back into your life, these experts are no longer physically there. Our experts aim to equip women with the skills needed to manage any issues in a healthy, non-addictive way.

Preventing Relapse

One of the most important things any rehab program can do for its patients is to help them embrace recovery and provide comprehensive strategies to navigate daily pressures and life in general. It is one thing to be successful in a rehab center, but it is entirely different when the stress of real-life and the triggers that are there come back again. Our goal is to give every woman who leaves our facility a game plan for the rest of their life. Our relapse prevention education helps every woman to understand where their dangers are and to give them a comprehensive strategy to beat addiction forever.

If addiction is controlling your life, we can help. We offer a quality rehab program with a holistic approach to helping women overcome addiction and its underlying causes. Call 855.773.0614 today, and we will do whatever we can to help you overcome your addiction.
