They will also likely provide medication to ease their symptoms and coach them through on a mental level.
Outpatient Program

Meridian Psychotherapy‘s Therapies & Programs
The methods used to care for each individual.
Individual Therapy
Individual therapy aims to identify the core issues that would have led the patient to substance abuse and address the root cause effectively. Patients find the therapist as a person who they can trust. It helps them to open up and discuss personal and sensitive issues, which they may not be comfortable discussing in a group.
Couples Therapy at Meridian Psychotherapy
Couples therapy is an approach wherein the patients and their partners are engaged together as a part of the treatment process. When a person becomes a victim of substance abuse, it affects the patient and the people around him, particularly his partner. Their relationship can become strained due to lack of communication, financial issues, loss of trust, lack of intimacy, and physical abuse in more severe cases.
Couples therapy addresses these issues and tries to rebuild the trust between the partners. The partner’s involvement in the process will result in greater chances of treatment success and sustained recovery.
Family Counseling + Treatment
Family therapy is a set of therapeutic approaches that assumes that the entire family is a system. It utilizes the strengths and resources of the family to help the patient refrain from resorting to substance abuse. It helps to repair relationships and improve communication between family members.
Group therapy happens at Meridian Psychotherapy in a controlled group environment, as opposed to a one-on-one setting. It supports Virginia Beach, VA patients’ recovery by offering a sense of comfort and letting them know that they are not alone.
