The therapists here focus on long term recovery. They have several psychotherapists to choose from. The method of treatment that is best for you will be determined at your intake meeting.
Their therapists use evidence based methodologies such as cognitive behavioral therapy in which you will be trained to think differently in order to change your behaviors.
