Addiction
Alcoholism
Alcohol addiction is a complicated disorder that’s caused by a wide variety of different factors. Recovering from an alcohol addiction often requires much more than simply putting down the bottle. One of the biggest contributors to addiction is mental health, which is why an effective alcoholism treatment program has to include therapy.
Accepting you have a problem with alcohol is the first big step to getting help. Getting the right kind of support is crucial in these situations and effective counselling plays an important role in curbing this addiction.
Smoking
Quitting smoking for good and overcoming nicotine dependence requires a multi-faceted approach helmed by proper counselling. Smoking can also be triggered by underlying anxiety, depression or other disorders. Effective counselling can help people understand their motivation to change and a viable plan to implement it.
Substances Abuse
Substance abuse or addiction not only affects a person’s health and relationships, but also impacts society and the environment. Counselling for addiction helps one understand what causes addiction while also helping to recognize risk factors for relapse. Dr Knopfova also teaches clients tools for coping with stressful situations.
