Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Recovery from Addiction

There are certain types of therapies that work particularly well with addiction. For this reason, they are often used in addiction treatment centers and rehab facilities. With recovery from addiction, it’s not enough to get sober. A person needs to also uncover the thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that have contributed to addiction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is a type of psychotherapy that explores just that – the connections between the thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that a person has. And by helping a person uncover these connections within themselves, they can make better, healthier choices.
