Starting Addiction

What is addiction counseling?

Addiction counseling therapists at Thriveworks in Lynchburg, VA can help people manage their urges to use the substance or engage in the activity they’re addicted to. In addition, it can help people manage the challenges that stem from their addiction, from relationship issues to problems at work, as well as those whose addiction may stem from issues like trauma.

How does addiction counseling work?

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

Is addiction counseling conducted in person or online?

Addiction counseling at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.

How long does addiction counseling last?

The length of addiction counseling depends on the individual’s needs, the extent and severity of their addiction, and the problems that might stem from it. That said, people can make meaningful progress in addiction counseling in the first weeks to months.

I always learn something at my sessions and leave feeling like it was an hour well spent. My counselor is able to quickly access me and address my current needs. My improvement with this counselor has been much better than a prior one with another organization.

I'm very happy with my counselor and the service in general. The flexibility of scheduling, the empathy and direction of Brian Hunsley has been most useful, and our therapist/patron is I improving all the time. I trust him, and that is rare in today's society.
