Addiction is a painful and isolating disease that keeps us trapped in a cycle of self defeating and dangerous behavior. It is a multifaceted disease that affects us emotionally, spiritually, physically, and mentally. Addiction holds an attached stigma that often prevents individuals from seeking help. Despite common misperception, no one chooses addiction. No one chooses the pain, isolation and darkness that comes with it. Despite their best efforts, addicts may find their lives crumbling around them, feeling helpless and hopeless as their lives spin out of control.
Addiction is a family disease, impacting every member. There is hope for addicts and their families to break free of the cycle of addiction, depression, fear and endless pain. Addiction and its related symptoms, like any disease, is unique to the individual
At Aurora Counseling trained therapists will conduct a comprehensive assessment and an individualized treatment plan to assist clients with recognizing patterns of thinking, behavior, and underlying trauma that may be fueling the cycle of addiction. Together, we look at shifts and changes that can be made to stop the downward spiral of addiction and move towards healthy functioning and deep healing.
Together, we look at the people, places and things in our lives that may keep us “stuck” and unable to move forward. We work with families to manage the addiction and the impact the disease may have on various aspects of their lives. We work with the client and family to link in with recovery resources as needed on their journey to hope and healing.
Break free of shame, there is ALWAYS hope!
