People's addiction issues commonly occur because they begin using drugs to mask particular emotions that they are going through. The abuse makes them feel good and forget about the problem at hand. Eventually, they think they can't live without drugs or alcohol. When an addict is ready to answer the why question, that is the moment that addiction can end, and a lifetime of recovery can begin. We help addicts navigate the difficult journey into their past, present, and future to understand exactly WHY they use drugs and alcohol to cope with their pain. Clients are put through a liberating transformation process where they can apply a powerful philosophy in their life, thus letting go of the crippling thoughts, emotions, and feelings that continue to lead them down a path of self-destruction.

Volunteering is a fantastic way to support your recovery from addiction. After completing an intensive program of addiction treatment you may feel energized and ready to take on the world. It could also be that you feel lost and unsure what to do next. Many people find themselves without purpose post-rehab. For a long time your reason for getting up each day was to get high or drunk. Now you need a new purpose. For this and many other reasons, you should consider devoting some of your time to volunteer work. Being a recovering addict can come with a lot of baggage, including plenty of remorse, guilt, and shame. You likely worked on getting past those feelings while in rehab, but they have a tendency to linger. During your struggle with addiction, you were selfish and self-absorbed. Now is your time to give back, help others, and be selfless. Volunteer work can be a great way to alleviate those negative feelings of remorse, shame, and guilt while giving you a sense of confidence and achievement.
