Starting Alcohol addiction counseling in Abingdon

What is alcohol addiction counseling?

Alcohol addiction counseling in Abingdon can help people manage their urges to consume alcohol. In addition, it can help people manage the challenges that stem from their addiction, from relationship issues to problems at work, as well as issues that their addiction may stem from, like trauma.

How does alcohol addiction counseling work?

Alcohol addiction counseling works by helping one understand the underlying causes of their addiction, teaching them coping strategies, and recognizing their specific triggers. Long-term or ongoing alcohol addiction counseling can also help to prevent relapse.

Is alcohol addiction counseling conducted in person or online?

Alcohol addiction counseling from our therapists in Abingdon, VA is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.

How long does alcohol addiction counseling last?

The length of alcohol addiction counseling with our providers at Thriveworks in Abingdon, VA depends on the individual’s needs and the extent and severity of their addiction, as well as the problems that might stem from it. That said, people can make meaningful progress in alcohol addiction counseling in the first weeks to months.

Alcoholism: A National Problem — Therapists and Counselors in Bristol, VA

Alcohol is the most commonly used addictive substance in the US. Alcohol addiction is clearly a very dangerous condition and is one of the primary causes of lifestyle-related deaths in the US.

These huge numbers are a direct result of the impact that alcohol addiction has on the development of serious diseases such as:

  • Heart and cardiovascular disease
  • Dementia and Alzheimer’s
  • Liver damage (cirrhosis)

As a result, alcohol addicts have a life expectancy that is 10-12 years below the national average. For alcohol addicts even the process of quitting alcohol itself can be dangerous – alcohol withdrawal syndrome can often cause serious illness and, in extreme cases, lead to death.

On The Road To Abstinence.

The focus of any treatment for alcohol addiction is achieving and maintaining abstinence and sobriety. However, this is often a long road and always starts with a simple yet deceptively hard to achieve concept – accepting that one has an addiction. Once this point has been achieved, it is always advisable to attend a structured rehabilitation process, much like the service that Thriveworks Bristol Addiction Counseling provides.

Here at Thriveworks Bristol, VA we have experienced counselors that will guide you through the rehabilitation process and help you on your road to sustained sobriety.

Reach out to us with a. phone call—or get started online to book your session with a Thriveworks counselor who can help you treat the symptoms of alcoholism and alcohol use disorder.

I highly recommend Trish! She is very helpful, kind, compassionate and excellent at getting down to the roots of the problem. I have made more progress with her than I have with multiple therapists in several different cities. P.S--EMDR therapy sounds totally crazy, but it has significantly helped me. Give it a try!

Dr Mike Pilcher took me under his wing and coached me through one of the biggest decisions of my life...opening a new business. At one point...well more than once...I felt like pulling my hair out and his calm demeanor and no BS approach really helped me get focused and confident. I was able to really pour on the steam and my business is doing well as a result. Dr. P is a great counselor and a man I respect. Call him...I still do to this day.
