Specialities
The disease model of addiction implies that there is something wrong with a person that cannot be healed. For example, research has shown that there are alcoholic biochemistries that make some people predisposed to addiction. Rather than a “disease”, we view addiction as a ‘dis-ease’ which causes an imbalance and disharmony in the life of a human being. Furthermore we believe that the symptoms are physical, psycho-emotional and spiritual conditions, which can be treated and/or managed, and their impact dramatically reduced.
While we acknowledge that there may be predispositions to addiction, we focus more on identifying and treating the specific areas of dis-ease and work toward helping the client restore balance both inside and out. We do this using the most progressive 21st century modalities available. In addition, our professional staff has the training and experience to profoundly address any emotional issues, childhood traumas and other significant personal and interpersonal problems, which may come up in the course of treatment and which have an impact on the person’s addictive behavior and quality of life.
