Top addiction therapists in 46036: Elwood, IN.

A hallmark feature of addictions is the recurrent pursuit of short-term immediate gratification despite longer term negative outcomes. Once the temporary high has faded away, people often find themselves with a myriad of worsening emotional problems, physical complaints, legal issues, financial concerns, and/or damaged relationships. At LifeCare Counseling Services, we begin by helping our clients to fully understand the factors that drive their addictive behaviors. We then provide guidance, direction, and support as they work let go of these unhealthy behaviors and develop new habits aimed at promoting happier, healthier, and more satisfying long-term outcomes.

Addiction is a complex and well-debated area of practice. In the simplest of terms, I define addiction as using a process or substance to numb pain as it causes an unbalance in another area of your life. By healing the underlying pain that is needing the numbing, we can increase the success rate of other interventions. By re-establishing connection with others and addressing the addiction from multiple angles, we can work through this difficult issue. Through individual and group counseling and specifically tailored treatment plans, we can lower the chances of relapse and help you live addiction-free!

What do you do when the very thing you have been using to help you feel better suddenly becomes the thing that is destroying your relationships and life? Most addictive behaviors begin as an attempt to help us feel better. In time, however, these coping skills can become an even larger issue than the one we were trying to manage. When the ability to choose begins to evaporate and life begins to feel unmanageable, it is time to consider a new way of managing your anxieties. Helping you find a better way to connect with your Self, Others and the God of your understanding is an intricate part of the work we do at Chrysalis Connections. When you are ready. We will be here.
