Drug addiction in Sheffield is one of the most common addictions and is one of the hardest to treat. Addiction to Drugs, whether it's heroin, cocaine, amphetamines, MCAT or prescription medications is one of the most demanding challenges someone can face and if you want to escape your
addiction or want to support someone beat their own addiction this site has
lots of useful and effective advice to do this.
I also offer confidential tailor made treatment to help clients break their addictive patterns, by helping addicts and problem drinkers learn about themselves and behaviours, allowing an understand why people use in the first place. As part of the personalised treatment I offer I also develop realistic individualised relapse prevention strategies and long term aftercare treatment to support people to move forward into lifelong recovery.
Drug addiction in Sheffield is so common because people use chemicals to change how they feel or to manage their pain. Drugs do not have a lasting impact on the things which drug users want to block out and so end up in a cycle of prolonged drug using. It does not change the world that an addictive lives in but does change how they feel within that world. Addictive behaviour reduces the pain, fear, depressive sypmtoms and anxious feelings. It is so effective that drug users will continue to use when their health is deteriorating so badly that their using patterns may do long term and often permanent damage to their body.
Drug addicts, like all addicts are
intelligent and sensitive people but they have lost the
ability and self confidence to deal with the world around them and have
learned
to retreat into this using behaviour.. Therapy can help them to make the behavioural and psychological changes necessary to break that addiction to drugs.
Alongside
dedicated medication to deal with withdrawal an addict can break their
physical dependence on drugs. However,
to break their psychological dependence, therapy is necessary to make lasting changes. Through therapy I can help you or a loved one change
how to deal with the world, how you feel about yourself and give you a new purposeful sense
of direction in life plus give you the help necessary
to live a fulfilling life.
Treatment is not a quick fix, but can be done remotely or face to face. I will offer a realistic time-frame with realistic goals. The website has a range of the tools and techniques to beat drug addiction. I will support you to learn and use these tools plus many, as they become relevant to your needs. I will help you move carefully through each phase of treatment such that you can exit and live the life you want, able to deal with the complexity of living without hiding from life but living life on life’s terms.
I have been working with people affected by addiction throughout my entire career and have formally worked with a wide range of people and addiction issues. I have worked in rehabs, secure units, psychiatric hospitals and within community setting and have developed these techniques during that time to meet the needs of my clients. Repeatedly clients have demonstrated a rapid change in self esteem, a rapid change in their belief in their ability to cope and this has been bourne out by their recovery. My work has been very effective, to such an extent that some of my fellow professionals began as my clients.
A common question in addiction treatment is how quickly can this all be solved. Part of this is built on a behaviour of Instant Gratification which is a central way of thinking in addiction.
One mistaken assumption is that if you have had 10 years in active addiction then it will take just as long to move away from this. I use the analogy of a hair cut to explain how quickly addiction can be treated if you are willing to let the treatment do it's job. It can take years to grow your hair long but it only takes seconds to snip those dead, lank bits of hair off revealing a new growth and a brand new you underneath.
Some clients have completed treatment in a dozen sessions, initially weekly appointments and then spaced so that people practise dealing with triggers, cravings and urges away from sessions and applying the learning at the next sessions.
Treatment for addiction is tailored to your needs and can include works around :
Alongside my work in rehab, where I have worked with around a thousand people deal with all forms of substance issues, I have had clients with drug addiction in Sheffield, who have long term active addiction and who have come into treatment still at that point who have completely recovered in a relatively short time.
