Couples therapy is an essential part of restoring trust and good communication to intimate relationships harmed by addiction. Couples therapy by ICL - Family Services helps repair the damage done to these important relationships.

Trauma is one of the most common causes of psychological disorders. It’s often found in people with addiction diagnoses. Trauma therapy addresses this by examining the emotions and thoughts people have formed due to past traumas. Traumas are complex but trauma therapy can reduce their ability to contribute to addictive behaviors.

Dieticians like those at ICL - Family Services in Brooklyn, NY believe that nutrition therapy is the key to making significant lifestyle changes.
Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) uses low dose nicotine products to ween smokers away from cigarettes. The products get nicotine into the bloodstream without smoking reducing addiction to the physical habit. It also allows addicts to adjust to lower doses to reduce withdrawal symptoms.
Patient Experience
Experiential Therapy at ICL - Family Services

By creating a new experience, it allows people to work through the issues associated with those moments in a new experience. This can give them a new measure of control and can help them role play a new scenario. That can help push addiction into their past and help them begin the healing process.
