Overcoming addiction requires a personalized approach, and therapy is essential in treating substance use disorders (SUDs). Here are some of the most popular therapies used for de-addiction treatment at Nasha Mukti Kendra in Chandigarh:

  1. Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT): CBT is highly effective for treating SUDs by helping individuals identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviours associated with addiction. It teaches healthier coping strategies and relapse prevention skills.

  2. Motivational Interviewing (MI): MI enhances motivation and commitment to change by resolving ambivalence about addiction. It’s particularly helpful in the early stages of treatment.

  3. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT): Combining CBT with mindfulness, DBT helps manage intense emotions and improve relationships, making it effective for addiction treatment.

  4. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT): ACT encourages individuals to accept complex thoughts and feelings, focus on personal values, and commit to a meaningful life, reducing the impact of cravings.

  5. Family Therapy: Addiction affects the whole family, and family therapy helps rebuild trust, improve communication, and create a supportive recovery environment.

  6. Group Therapy: Group sessions offer support, shared experiences, and insights from peers, reducing isolation and fostering a sense of belonging.

  7. Contingency Management (CM): CM uses positive reinforcement, like rewards for meeting treatment goals, to promote abstinence and engagement in therapy.

  8. 12-Step Facilitation: Based on AA and NA principles, this therapy involves working through the 12 steps with a sponsor, emphasizing acceptance, accountability, and support from a sober community.

These therapies address the psychological, emotional, and behavioural aspects of addiction. At Nasha Mukti Kendra in Chandigarh, personalized treatment plans tailored to individual needs are key to successful recovery.
