Counseling: Empowering Paths to Healing and Growth
Counselling is a necessary component of the addiction treatment process since it helps to comprehend the patient and their family members on many levels. In the beginning, the patient participates in a limited number of counselling sessions to assess the various facets of his or her addiction, including the substance(s) to which they are addicted, how long they have been addicted, when and how it began, the environment they are a part of, self-withdrawal symptoms noted, and other addictions.
Counselling sessions are also held to assist patients and their families in understanding the treatment plan, medications, therapies, and list of things to avoid in order maintaining sobriety. They are also informed about the facilities, staff, physicians, psychiatrists, nurses who will assist with his or her care, any specialised therapies offered at the rehabilitation facility, the available trainers, etc.
