When starting detox for alcohol or drug use disorders, a vital component to recovery is individual therapy in Nashville, Tennessee, at Music City Detox. Individual therapy provides one-on-one attention to help individuals learn effective coping strategies to manage their recovery and reduce the risk of relapse.

What Is Individual Psychotherapy?

Individual psychotherapy is a type of evidence-based therapy where individuals talk about their personal issues that are contributing to their addiction, emotions, and mental health. Individual therapy is ideally suited for personal problems that people are uncomfortable sharing in group therapy.

Sessions are conducted with a licensed psychiatrist who provides guidance as people dig deeper into the underlying causes of their addiction. People also explore their relationships, relationship issues, positive skill sets and abilities, and build coping skills to address excess stress, anxiety, and other triggers that could result in a relapse.

Individual therapy at Music City Detox in Nashville, Tennessee, is customized to meet each individual’s specific needs. Individual psychotherapy can provide the following benefits:

Help change unhealthy emotions, thoughts, and behaviors into positive ones

Types of Psychotherapy We Provide

Music City Detox understands everyone’s substance addiction treatment needs to be tailored to their unique needs. Some of the different types of psychotherapy we provide as part of a comprehensive treatment plan include:

CBT (Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy)

Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is an evidence-based form of therapy and is also one of the most widely used to treat substance use disorders. The primary objective of CBT is to help people change their negative thoughts, behaviors, and emotions contributing to their addiction into positive ones.

DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy)

Dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) is based on CBT, however, it is specialized for specific symptoms. DBT is based on addressing four modules: mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness.

Behavioral Therapy

Behavioral therapy incorporates several evidence-based therapeutic modalities. This type of individual therapy explores the concept that all behaviors are learned. Therefore, negative behaviors can be unlearned or changed into positive ones. People participating in this therapy better understand how they have control over their responses and how they can choose positive behaviors over negative ones.

Motivational Interviewing

Motivational interviewing is a type of individual therapy for individuals who need motivation or have reservations about addiction treatment. This type of individual therapy helps people learn how to accept change and be more open and willing to uncover what motivates them.

Substance Addiction Counseling

Substance addiction counseling allows individuals to explore the causes of their addiction, uncover triggers, and develop healthy coping skills and strategies to deal with them. This type of individual therapy also helps people learn how to cope with cravings as they are recovering from addiction.

What to Expect During Individual Therapy

You can expect a caring, supportive, safe, and secure environment during individual therapy. Our licensed psychiatrists and counselors will help you focus on issues you are uncomfortable discussing in group sessions. Our therapists take the time to learn more about you, your concerns and problems, and your treatment goals and objectives.

Working collaboratively, you will develop an individual therapy plan that includes the types of individual therapies that will benefit you the most. In addition, during the first few sessions, you and your therapists will take time to learn more about each other and build rapport.

As your therapist learns more about you, it helps them to guide you through different therapeutic modalities to help you address your addiction and underlying concerns. You will also work with your therapist to set short-term and long-term goals. These are to help you measure your treatment progress. Your therapists may also give you “homework” for you to work on in between sessions, such as practicing new skills you have learned or keeping a journal.

How Can Individual Therapy and Addiction Counseling Help Me in My Recovery

Individual therapy and addiction counseling while in detox and recovery can help you maintain your newly found substance-free life. People in recovery have to deal with a range of emotions, thoughts, and behaviors, as well as face stressful situations and triggers.

Individual psychotherapy provides the support and guidance people need to avoid relapse. It also helps them develop and refine effective coping skills and techniques.

Furthermore, when someone returns to their regular routines, they will have to manage many of the triggers that led to their substance use. Individual therapy and addiction counseling help people prepare for this by addressing the people, places, and things that they associate with substance use. This helps people be ready to use their new healthy coping skills and reject their former negative ones.
