    Wisconsin Community Services‘s Therapies & Programs

    Addiction in Milwaukee, Wisconsin can occur due to a wide variety of reasons. Understanding your addiction and the best methods for maintaining sobriety involves learning about yourself.

This builds a personal and trusting relationship so you can truly be yourself and express any emotions as you feel them. Individual therapy leads to greater peace and understanding about your triggers for addiction and coping strategies to prevent relapse.

    Substance abuse does a number on an individual’s relationship with other people, particularly in marriage. Spousal relationships bear the brunt of alcohol and drug dependence. Therefore, it becomes critical to submit the relationship to couples therapy to prevent straining it further. Most programs only zero in on the individual with substance addiction without factoring in the importance of the other half’s emotional support.

    However, some facilities, like Wisconsin Community Services in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, offer couples therapy options to manage intimate partnerships amid the recovery process. Other couples-focused treatment plans can provide the patient and their partner tools to get things back to normal, support each other, and the patient’s sobriety.
    Addiction is a family disease. Family therapy aims to heal and rebalance unhealthy roles and habits. Healing any family trauma and dysfunctional communications is important, and Wisconsin Community Services understands this. Family sessions are meant to bring Wisconsin families closer together and live sober, healthy, lives.

Group therapy is led by a trained individual at Wisconsin Community Services in Milwaukee, WI and consists of members from different stages of recovery.

    The goal of group therapy sessions is to foster hope and a sense of belonging, share information, and learn coping mechanisms. It also helps to have people who can relate to what you’re going through. Good behaviors can also be contagious, and participants can learn from one another.

    Unresolved trauma is often a key reason why many patients resorted to substance abuse. Trauma could be physical abuse, sexual abuse, war, natural disasters, divorce, accident, loss of a loved one, etc. If trauma is the primary cause of substance abuse, then both issues must be addressed.

    Patient Experience

    Creative Arts

    It is believed that enhancing creativity and developing skills related to it can help people with addiction recover faster. Activities such as painting, writing, acting, and dancing are considered therapeutic as they become outlets for patients to blow off steam, channel their emotions, and express their thoughts. Some people in recovery find it difficult to do so, especially when they suffer from co-occurring disorders such as depression.

    Creative arts therapy at Wisconsin Community Services in Milwaukee, WI heals these individuals and teaches them to express themselves more meaningfully. With this type of treatment, the process matters a lot more than the final output because it’s more important for therapists and counselors to see how a patient frees himself or herself up for expression.

    Fitness Therapy

    Exercise is a great way to boost mental and physical health. Addicts are encouraged to engage in fitness therapy provided by Wisconsin Community Services to help their body recover from the harms of addiction. It also improves mood and serves as a distraction making them less likely to use.
