The media often portrays treatment for substance use disorders and dual diagnosis disorders as people sweating their way through each minute of the day hoping they won’t relapse. Recovery from drug and alcohol addiction is actually about attending a series of therapies designed to help a person disarm their triggers and develop the power to overcome their need to drink or use drugs.
Live Oaks Wellness offers several types of addiction therapy that target the needs of the person attending them. Our staff provides supportive and compassionate care from a detox program through residential and outpatient care. Each step of the way, we help people build their strength and learn to stay sober for a lifetime.
If you or someone you love has been struggling with drug or alcohol addiction we are here to help. Contact us today to learn more about our treatment programs near San Francisco at 415-853-8488 or verify your insurance.
How Can Addiction Therapy Help Me in the Recovery Process?
Entering recovery doesn’t mean white-knuckling your way through each day while feeling one step away from relapsing. Addiction therapy is about providing access to a variety of therapy modalities that help people overcome their substance use disorders.
A person in treatment will be in one of the following levels of care: Detox, Residential Treatment, and Outpatient Rehab. The therapies offered teach people to understand their triggers and diffuse them, resolve issues such as trauma related to the addiction, and use healthy coping mechanisms.

Our Addiction Therapies
Live Oaks Wellness created a complete list of evidence-based therapies that help people who struggle with substance use disorders. Upon entry to our program, each person will be assessed to determine which types of addiction therapy will work best for their situation.
In 2022 in the U.S., 107,941 people died from a drug overdose. This number can be lowered if more people attend addiction treatment and engage in therapies that help them become sober for life.
Individual
Therapy
Individual therapy takes place between one person and their private therapist. It provides a confidential safe space to discuss the details of their substance use or dual diagnosis disorder as well as the underlying causes that may be behind it. These sessions allow the person to set individualized treatment goals and learn how to achieve each step of their recovery with the support and guidance of their therapist.
Group
Therapy
A small group of people meet under the guidance of a therapist and discuss their addiction and how it impacts their lives. The peer support that takes place allows people to be honest about their emotions and behaviors because everyone in attendance understands the damaging allure of abusing drugs and alcohol. Peers also share coping skills with one another and practice healthy communication.
Family
Therapy
During family therapy, the individual undergoing treatment meets with family members under the direction of a family therapist. The therapist allows each family member the opportunity to speak about how the loved one’s addiction has impacted their lives. Through newly learned communication skills, the family unit becomes closer and learns the best methods to support their loved one’s recovery.
Trauma
Therapy
Many people remain unaware that past traumatic events were the birthing point for their addictions or dual diagnosis disorders. Even if they know they drink or use drugs to combat the symptoms of trauma, they don’t know how to stop. Trauma-informed care helps people address their trauma in a safe space and work on putting their shame and sorrow to rest.
Holistic
Therapy
Holistic therapy views healing as needing to happen to the mind, body, and spirit. This may include things such as meditation, yoga, and mindfulness. Holistic therapy helps improve symptoms of poor mental health and bring the physical self back into alignment. People also learn how to express their feelings in non-verbal ways, which contributes to the healing process.
Somatic
Therapy
Somatic therapy is a type of body-centered therapy that helps people with substance use disorders. It helps people heal the connection between their minds and bodies and contributes to reducing anxiety, trauma, and other factors that influence drug and alcohol abuse. It can include somatic experiencing, sensorimotor psychotherapy, and body-mind centering (BMC)
DBT
Therapy
Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) incorporates four parts to help people diffuse their addiction, learn to accept who they are now, and work toward maintaining recovery. The parts are Mindfulness, Distress Tolerance, Emotion Regulation, and Interpersonal Effectiveness. DBT is especially helpful for those with intense emotions and poor impulse control.
CBT
Therapy
Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is one of the most common types of therapy used at drug and alcohol addiction treatment centers. CBT can help you find coping skills for underlying mental health symptoms, trauma, and stressors that trigger your addiction. Several types of therapy are based on the principals and techniques used during CBT therapy programs.
