What is it about?

People who are dependent on prescribed medication self-medicate over an extended period. They use medication unrelated to a medical condition, or take far more than the dose prescribed for that condition.

Tolerance to these substances is very high and produces severe, painful withdrawal symptoms. In many cases there is no medical condition that justifies the use; when there is one, the person exceeds the dose their doctor prescribed.

Integrated assistance and treatment

I support you and your family every step of the way, with the goal of a life free of substance abuse.

Always alongside medical judgement: therapy accompanies the process, it does not replace clinical supervision of a withdrawal.

What the process includes

Depending on the case, individual therapy can combine the following:

Therapeutic work

  • Individual psychotherapy sessions
  • Motivational enhancement therapy
  • Work on emotions and self-esteem
  • Art therapy and recreation

Workshops and tools

  • Anger management
  • Recovery steps
  • Relapse prevention
  • The 12 Steps and 12 Traditions

Family and environment

  • Assistance and therapy for the family
  • Guidance for adult children of dysfunctional families
  • Intervention and family mediation
  • Follow-up once the process ends
