Addiction doesn’t start overnight—and it doesn’t end by willpower alone. At Waterside Recovery, therapy is at the heart of everything we do. Because substance use is often a symptom of deeper emotional pain, our therapy programs help you understand why you use, not just how to stop. Treatment helps people counteract addiction’s disruptive effects and regain control of their lives (NIDA). National Institute on Drug Abuse
Healing the Root, Not Just the Habit
For some, alcohol quiets anxiety. For others, drugs numb loss, trauma, or loneliness. Therapy helps you uncover those patterns and learn new ways to respond to stress, shame, and pain—without substances. Yet across the U.S., only about one in four people who needed substance use treatment in the past year actually received it (23.6%) (SAMHSA, 2023 NSDUH). SAMHSA
If you’re also managing mental health concerns alongside addiction, our Dual Diagnosis program integrates therapy and psychiatric support for complete, coordinated care.
Individual, Group & Family Support
Addiction affects more than one person—it impacts the people who love you most. That’s why we include family in the healing process whenever possible.
- Individual Therapy: One-on-one work focused on personal growth and accountability.

Every therapist at Waterside Recovery is trained in approaches proven to help people recover from substance use and co-occurring disorders. We tailor each plan to your needs, preferences, and history.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Addiction (CBT)
CBT focuses on identifying and reframing thought patterns that lead to substance use. You’ll learn how to:
- Recognize emotional and environmental triggers
- Replace self-defeating thoughts with realistic ones
- Build coping skills to manage cravings
- Set goals that support long-term recovery
Over time, CBT helps you regain control of your reactions and rewrite the story behind your habits.
DBT for Substance Use | Dialectical Behavior Therapy
DBT blends behavioral techniques with mindfulness practice. It’s especially effective for people who feel emotions intensely or struggle with impulsivity. You’ll learn to:
- Tolerate distress without resorting to use
- Improve communication and boundaries
- Stay grounded through mindfulness exercises
DBT teaches emotional balance—an essential skill for sustainable sobriety.
EMDR for Addiction | Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing
EMDR helps the brain reprocess traumatic experiences that often fuel addiction. Through guided bilateral stimulation, you’ll reduce the emotional charge of past memories and restore calm in the present. Many clients describe EMDR as the missing piece that allows them to move forward without being triggered by old pain.
Group Therapy for Addiction
Healing is more powerful when shared. Group sessions provide connection, accountability, and understanding from peers walking a similar path. You’ll exchange experiences, practice new communication skills, and rebuild confidence in social situations.
Relapse Prevention Therapy
Recovery isn’t about perfection—it’s about preparation. Relapse Prevention Therapy helps you recognize warning signs early and build a plan to protect your progress. Together, you’ll identify triggers, develop a “coping toolkit,” and strengthen your ability to navigate high-risk moments with confidence.
What to Expect When You Begin
Starting therapy can feel vulnerable, but from your first session, you’ll find a compassionate, judgment-free space to heal. With the stakes so high—there were 107,941 drug overdose deaths in the U.S. in 2022 (age-adjusted rate 32.6 per 100,000) (CDC)—taking action early matters. CDC
- Comprehensive Assessment: We’ll learn your history, goals, and strengths.
- Personalized Treatment Plan: You and your therapist design a roadmap tailored to your needs.
- Consistent Support: Weekly progress check-ins ensure your therapy evolves with you.
Real Results: You’ll notice small but powerful changes—better sleep, more calm, more connection.
