Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy for Addiction Treatment

Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy for Addiction Treatment

Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT) is one of the oldest forms of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), focusing on the patient’s perspective on an issue. The foundation of REBT is that most situations are not inherently good or bad, but rather it depends on how you think about them. For addiction specifically, REBT approaches therapy by educating patients about how they can live a better and more fulfilling life without substance abuse. REBT teaches and challenges patients about their own thoughts and responses and is extremely useful for treating addiction alongside the underlying social and emotional problems behind the addiction.

Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy in Drug Rehabilitation

Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy takes on a holistic approach, tackling factors like thinking, behavior and emotions rooted in the behavior.

Cognitive: REBT approaches the cognitive aspect of addiction by focusing on the emotions related to addiction. Whether it is feeling bad, into using, or the common “just one more time” thinking, REBT teaches patients to question and challenge these thoughts with logical, positive responses. Through consistent reinforcement over time, this trains the patient to think more positively and to question their negative and harmful thoughts.

Behavior: REBT integrates a system of rewards and penalties to help users overcome bad habits. By substituting negative behaviors with positive ones, REBT helps patients create a system of delaying these negative, desired behavior. By delaying behaviors and cravings instead of mitigating them completely, REBT helps patients build self-control, which they can eventually use to not act on the cravings.

Images: REBT uses visual images as a form of motivation. Images like Rational-Emotive Imagery and Coping Imagery are used for patients to understand their feelings and emotions behind each picture and to provide confidence as to how they can achieve how they want to feel.

Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy in Dual Diagnosis Addiction Treatment

REBT is commonly recommended by groups like SMART because it eliminated negative, harmful behaviors with positive and healthy coping techniques. Since it addresses the underlying issue, REBT is helpful in addressing both addiction and mental health disorders.

Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy for Detoxification

Resurgence strives to provide a safe, comfortable and caring environment to help patients navigate alcohol and drug detoxification. Detox is the first step for anyone dependent on alcohol or drugs. Supervised detox safely manages the acute physical symptoms of withdrawal. Common symptoms include anxiety, depression, hallucinations, restlessness and more. If left untreated and uncared for, these withdrawal symptoms can be life-threatening.

Resurgence has designed an effective detox process that helps patients detox from alcohol or drugs. Since each patient’s detox requirement differs, the process can be furthered personalized to improve its effectiveness for the individual. Most cases follow these three steps:

  1. Evaluation: Initially, the medical team screens incoming clients for physical and mental health issues, along with conducting an in-depth interview in order to formulate a personalized, long-term plan.
  2. Stabilization: The detox team then provides medical and psychological therapy that is supported by prescribed addiction treatment medications to help clients manage withdrawal symptoms.
  3. Transfer to Long-Term Care: Once they are stabilized, then the client is transferred to residential care at our welcoming Fayetteville facility.

However, detox is only a short-term solution as it doesn’t sustain for long-term recovery. Research indicates that patients who undergo the detox process without a subsequent long-term rehabilitation program have a relapse rate of more than 90%. As a result, whether it’s for alcohol or drug addictions, detoxification is simply the initial preparation for a comprehensive rehabilitation program. Resurgence Tennessee provides a complete detoxification and inpatient rehabilitation process that allows patients to successfully sustain sobriety.
