About Us: Our Approach to Recovery

We believe recovery is not just a goal, but a journey—a journey that requires understanding, support, and the right tools for lasting change. Here’s how we guide you through each step:

Evidence-Based, Person-Centered Recovery

Tailored to You: Our journey together begins with a comprehensive assessment, creating a treatment plan that addresses your unique needs. We focus on educating and counseling you about the risks and consequences of substance use, while also highlighting your strengths and capacities for change.

Partnership in Healing: Recovery is a collaborative effort. We establish a partnership with you, encouraging a dialogue that fosters self-awareness and reinforces your motivation to change. Our use of Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Trauma-Informed Care ensures a respectful and effective approach to recovery.

Sustaining Your Recovery

Building a Supportive Network: Recovery extends beyond individual efforts. It’s about creating and sustaining relationships that support your journey. We offer Continuing Care for those who seek ongoing support post-treatment. This service provides a safety net, offering regular “check-ins” to manage life’s stressors and reduce the risk of relapse.

Comprehensive Services for Holistic Care

Medication Management (Including MAT): Integrating medication support with counseling for a holistic approach.
Individual/Group Counseling: Offering spaces for personal growth and shared experiences.
Referral to Recovery Support Services: Connecting you with resources and communities for continued support.

Understanding Substance Use Disorder

Substance Use Disorder (SUD) is a medical condition characterized by the compulsive use of substances despite harmful consequences. It can affect anyone, regardless of age, gender, or socioeconomic status, and involves complex interactions between brain chemistry, genetics, and environmental factors.

Key Points:

Risk Factors: Include genetics, early exposure to drugs, mental health disorders, and social environment.
Consequences: Can range from health complications, relationship issues, financial problems, to legal challenges.
Recovery Is Possible: With the right treatment and support, individuals can overcome SUD and lead fulfilling lives.

Our goal is to provide a safe and understanding environment where individuals and their families can seek help and find the support they need to navigate the challenges of SUD.

The Role of Family and Friends

Family and friends play a crucial role in the recovery journey. Your support can make a significant difference in your loved one’s path to sobriety. Here are ways you can help:

Offer Emotional Support: Listen without judgment, express love and concern, and celebrate small victories together.

Stay Informed: Learn about SUD, its impacts, and the recovery process. Understanding what your loved one is going through can help you provide better support.

Encourage Treatment: Motivate your loved one to seek professional help and reassure them that seeking treatment is a sign of strength, not weakness.

Set Boundaries: It’s important to take care of your own health and wellbeing. Setting clear boundaries can prevent enabling behaviors and ensure a healthy environment for everyone involved.

Seek Support for Yourself: Supporting someone with SUD can be emotionally taxing. Consider joining support groups or seeking counseling to ensure you have the support you need.

At Bleuler, we believe in the power of community and support in overcoming the challenges of substance use disorder. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of those affected by SUD.
