Family therapy is a type of group problem-solving that aims to improve communication and relationships between the patient, their family, and sometimes friends. The therapist is with the family as they learn to communicate with each other differently, especially with the addict when s/he is using.
The family can learn to reduce their enabling behavior or rally together and support each other during tough times. The patient also learns how to deal with their addiction and maintain sobriety while interacting with the family.

The 12 steps of AA and other anonymous programs (generally abbreviated to ’12-step program’ or ’12-step’) are a series of guiding principles outlining a course of action for recovery from addiction, compulsion, or other behavioral problems. Originally proposed by Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) as a recovery method from alcoholism, the Twelve Steps were first published in the 1939 book Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions. The program was adapted and became part of the philosophy of other 12-step programs.
12-Step programs are widely regarded as effective for dealing with substance abuse issues, but some critics believe they can be difficult to understand or follow. There is also evidence that the 12 steps may not be effective for adolescents with substance abuse issues. At least one study has shown that 12-step programs are not more effective than other forms of treatment.
Despite these claims, there is substantial evidence that people who attend 12-step meetings have a greater likelihood of achieving long-term abstinence and sobriety than those who do not participate in 12-step meetings.
Good nutrition can be difficult for people recovering from addiction because they may not feel like eating while they are experiencing the physical and emotional side effects of detoxing.
