Family members and other concerned persons may call Reset Clinics for help; referrals may also be made by physicians, healthcare workers, social service workers, or employers.
Once enrolled at Reset Clinics, a comprehensive psychiatric assessment will be conducted. This assessment examines the extent and type of the addictive behavior as well as the presence of comorbid mental health disorders. At the conclusion of this assessment, effective treatment options are explored. Referrals are then made to the most appropriate service at Reset Clinics or to other community resources when needed.
Specialized psychotherapists from several schools of therapy (CBT, Narrative therapy, family and systemic therapy, DBT…), offer psychosocial support and addiction counseling, guided by personalized treatment plans for the individual. Seeing that each patient has unique challenges in their lives, the team of psychotherapists work collaboratively with the patient, to define and address their desired treatment outcomes as well as to work on essential skills that would help them cope with stressors, build self-confidence and improve social engagements.
These counselor-led therapy groups use various curriculums that explore early recovery skills, relapse prevention, and include a family education component. Counselors explore with individuals the possible changes to make to reduce or eliminate further problems and how to maintain those changes after leaving treatment.
