Naturally I have my own take on what does and doesn't work! There are things that can very much improve outcomes. I'd say that the deeper you can go into the person then the more long term change is enabled. But, many centers have staff who are ill equipped for this task!
That's where Psychotherapy and Spiritual Direction wins hands down! Sadly, many well known therapists make no bones about avoiding seeing addicted patients in private practice. If you can find a skilled therapist then pay the money!
In the field of spiritual direction most experts have little experience with those new to recovery... yet, S.D. has so much to offer!
Nowadays I offer an alternative approach to all other forms of addiction treatment... combining Meditation and Psychotherapy.
