Counseling

Counseling is an essential component of an IOP (Intensive Outpatient Program) rehab for individuals with substance use disorders or other mental health conditions. At Joyd Wellness, counseling typically involves a one-on-one relationship between an individual and a mental health professional, such as a licensed therapist, counselor, or social worker.

The goal of counseling at Joyd Wellness is to provide individuals with a safe and supportive environment to discuss their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and to work towards positive change. Counseling may address various issues, such as substance use, depression, anxiety, trauma, and other mental health conditions.

​

Some common types of counseling that may be used in an IOP rehab include:

​

1. Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT): Focuses on modifying negative or unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors and replacing them with more positive and adaptive ones.

2. Motivational interviewing: A counseling technique designed to help individuals explore and resolve their ambivalence about behavior change and build their motivation to change.

3. Family counseling: A type of counseling that involves the individual's family members and is designed to help improve communication, relationships, and understanding.

4. Group therapy: Therapy sessions with other individuals in recovery, providing peer support and helping individuals learn from each other's experiences.

​

Overall, counseling is an essential part of an IOP rehab. It can help individuals develop the skills, strategies, and support they need to achieve their recovery goals and improve their overall quality of life.
