Addiction Treatment in Spanish
I really like the culturally focused care offered here. They have individual and group counseling using a variety of evidence based treatment methods. For example, they use cognitive behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing.
They also teach specific topics in the treatment program, such as how to pursue well being no matter what your external circumstances are. I appreciate that they also have educational classes for participants and family members. Helping family members understand addiction and the recovery process can help them be a strong part of your recovery network.
El Primer Paso makes sure everyone learns relapse prevention strategies and healthy coping skills to help them make good choices during recovery. They provide crisis intervention if you need it and help you create a strong recovery plan.
