With a commitment to reaching a profound understanding of the root cause of the addictive tendencies, every patient has a unique solution to lead healthy, addiction-free existences.
Although you may find yourself at the beginning, middle or end of your journey toward a fully addiction-free life, our therapists work closely with you by developing a goal-oriented strategy that meets your specific needs.

Whether the addiction counseling sessions are one-on-one or in groups (both are available and recommended), the focus is on your individual progress. Addiction can often feel lonely and shameful, therefore, a group setting with other like-minded individuals can help you better understand your situation and recovery. Not to mention, having other patients on the same journey to cheer you on can boost your chances of leading and sustaining a healthy, addiction-free life. That being said, if you prefer privacy, one-on-one sessions are available. Finding your unique path to recovery is Advantage Mental Health Center’s main priority. Addiction counseling can make a major difference on your road to recovery.
