The programs will help offer her new strategies to cope with triggers and urges to use drugs and alcohol, find sober activities and find activities that are fun to do without drugs and alcohol. Either program,or both programs, will help Ms. C stay focused on her sobriety if she is willing to work the program to the best of her ability. Attending regular meetings on a weekly basis will help her out tremendously on the long journey to a sober life.Another important treatment recommended for Ms. C is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy(CBT). This treatment will be the most important part of her treatment plan as it is taught in PHP and treatment facilities to not only help with addiction, but to help with personal relationships.CBT is a treatment that helps individuals create short term goals to change patterns of behavior and thinking.CBT is a therapy that will help individuals identify negative thinking patterns that can cause self-destructive behaviors and negatively influence their behaviors. The way this therapy will help Ms. C with her addiction is to help her identify negative person, places and things that may have led to drug use in the past. CBT is not a quick process to learn how to change thinking patterns and behavior. It could take up to 6 months to notice a change in emotions and attitude and that is why it is important for Ms. C to attend AA and NA meetings for support and successfully complete PHP to develop coping skills as she turns her life around.
