A Full Treatment Team for Support
Detox can seem like a scary experience for most individuals. At Fairfax Behavioral Health, you can take comfort in knowing that you’ll have a full treatment team to support you throughout the process. The staff members available include case managers, nurses and substance use disorder professionals.
You’ll be guided through medically based detox protocols to ensure you have an effective recovery. Dealing with withdrawal symptoms is one of the hardest parts of going through detox. The staff administers medications to minimize your discomfort and make sure that serious complications are avoided.
Effective Therapeutic Approaches to Promote Recovery
As you stabilize, you’ll be able to start counseling. Your counselor will use evidence based therapeutic approaches such as cognitive (CBT) and dialectical behavioral therapies (DBT) and motivational interviewing. You’ll learn to adjust thoughts and beliefs that hinder your recovery and develop coping skills for when you face your triggers.
Using Fitness to Maintain Sobriety
Staying physically active is a great way to help you stay healthy, manage stress, and avoid using substances as a coping mechanism. A great place in Kirkland that you can do fitness activities is Juanita Beach Park. It has a sandy beach, tennis and volleyball courts, and a playground.
