Can counseling help with my addiction?
A common misconception about addiction is that someone must hit “rock bottom” in order to seek out help. At WMWG, we believe counseling at any stage in the addiction process can be incredibly beneficial. Counseling offers the opportunity to share your story, gain perspective, understand the various factors involved with addiction and make a plan with a knowledgeable professional on how to manage the effects of addiction going forward. Therapy may also help to understand and address the underlying triggers and/or causes of your addiction.
An experienced therapist makes a difference
Most counseling at West Michigan Wellness Group starts with the therapist hearing your story, what brings you into counseling, and landing on some goals for your time in therapy. WMWG has several therapists with extensive knowledge in the field of addictions. These counselors offer several modalities and a variety of approaches, all of which can be helpful no matter where you find yourself within the addiction cycle. Some of the therapists even have their own stories of overcoming addiction!
