The most effective way to treat a cocaine addiction is more than just quitting the substance. It is essential to find the right treatment programme that addresses all aspects of the addiction.
At Acquiesce, our cocaine rehabilitation programme involves a number of different approaches, designed to provide individuals with the skills they need to maintain a successful long term recovery.
In this guide, we’re going to be explaining our methods to help individuals recover from cocaine addiction, so you know exactly what to expect if you’re considering seeking support.
What Treatment Methods Does Acquiesce Use to Target Cocaine Addiction?
Addiction is a mental, physical and psychological disease and we believe that therapy is a crucial part of any recovery programme.
This is done through a varied range of approaches, which is extremely important as every individual has their own unique set of circumstances and no single treatment is appropriate for everyone.
Individual Intervention
Individual intervention is one-on-one treatment that focuses on the individual’s mental health, triggers and history. This looks at the root cause of the addiction and can help the individual to gain a better understanding of their thoughts and feelings.
Group Therapy
Group therapy involves several patients from the rehab facing similar issues. It typically includes regular group sessions led by professionally trained staff in a safe therapeutic atmosphere.
Group therapy provides a number of benefits, including:
- Building bonds
- Alleviating isolation
- Sharing experiences
- Providing motivation to remain abstinent
Many of these techniques are designed to eliminate negative behaviours and promote healthy, positive changes.
12-Steps Therapy
The 12 step programme is a highly effective code of behaviour for individuals to live by in order to aid their recovery.
The 12 steps support the individual in accepting that they have a problem and to recognise that there is a solution. It also looks at mistakes individuals have made in the past, how they can make amends and how they can change their behaviours and ways of thinking to avoid making the same mistakes again.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) Approaches
This is a type of ‘talk’ therapy based on psychological principles. CBT approaches help the individual to connect thoughts with emotions and behaviours, helping them to gain the skills, tools and resources to manage their addiction on a day-to-day basis.
It lets them look at the psychological reasons behind their actions and behaviours, and at the relationship between the way they think and their problems with cocaine. This supports the individual to break the cycle of destructive behaviours and actions and form new healthier habits.
Motivational Interventions
This type of therapy is a popular approach in the treatment of addiction. The goal of this treatment is to focus on improving a person’s motivation to change and make better life choices.
Psycho-Educational Groups
Psycho-education groups aim to educate individuals on cocaine abuse and other deep-seated issues that impact addiction. Individuals gain knowledge to help then establish and maintain abstinence.
Holistic Therapy
This type of therapy addresses the individual as a whole rather than just focusing on the illness. It delves into the complex nature of addiction by using a variety of approaches that focus on both the mind and body.
Family Support
Evidence shows that by including family as part of the recovery treatment, the individual feels more supported, leading to increased effectiveness and success of the treatment and long term results.
Family support aims to provide the necessary care and treatment for both the individual and their family members, giving them an opportunity to have those difficult conversations in a safe environment through visits and phone calls and providing emotional support for those struggling.
Cocaine Addiction Aftercare
Here at Acquiesce, we fully understand the need for considered aftercare; that’s why after completion of a residential rehab treatment with us, we offer ongoing help and support for no additional cost. We will keep in close contact with you for your first three months post treatment, and also provide a weekly aftercare group session for as long as you like.
How Long Does Residential Cocaine Rehabilitation Last?
There is no definitive answer to the question of how long rehab takes as each individual and the circumstances surrounding their addiction are unique and some may need to undergo treatment longer than others.
Generally, cocaine rehab at Acquiesce lasts between 28 to 90 days, depending on the severity of their addiction, however for some people it can take years due to the complexity of the disease.
At Acquiesce, we understand that addiction differs from person-to-person, which is why we offer different treatment programme lengths, including:
- 28 days
- 56 days
- 84 days
