At No Matter What Recovery, we understand that addiction can be a family disease. Studies show that addiction and substance abuse affects not only the addict but also their loved ones. We offer family therapy and addiction treatment services in Los Angeles that involve the entire family in the recovery process.
No Matter What’s family therapy services are designed to improve communication, resolve conflicts, and develop healthier relationships within the family unit. Take it from us that every family is unique, which is why we offer personalized family therapy sessions to meet the specific needs of each family. Our connection to the LGBTQ+ community allows us the unique insight of knowing that every family has their unique challenges and strengths.
Our licensed marriage and family therapists (LMFTs) are experienced in working with families affected by addiction and can help you identify and address negative family dynamics. We employ various techniques to facilitate communication, such as role-playing, active listening, and problem-solving. We believe that if we can create a safe space for your family to gather, then healing will follow through our guided practices.
At No Matter What Recovery, our goal is to make sure that no corner of the family is left outside the healing process. Everyone should play a part during recovery, because everyone can and will contribute to a family’s overall dysfunction. We believe there are many benefits to family systems therapy during addiction treatment, including:
Codependency is a common issue in families affected by addiction. It is a relationship where a person structures their life around pleasing someone else. In the case of addiction, the enabler acts as a referee between the addict and the rest of the family, often giving the addict permission for self-destructive behavior. Family therapy seeks to understand and correct unhealthy relationships that encourage addiction, such as codependency.
Family therapy can help identify negative family roles, such as the enabler, hero, scapegoat, or comic relief. These roles can perpetuate addiction and prevent effective treatment. By identifying these roles, family members can work together to create healthier family dynamics.
Addiction often leads to communication breakdowns within families. Family therapy can help family members learn how to communicate more effectively with each other, which can lead to improved relationships and reduced conflict.
Family therapy can help families build trust and establish clear boundaries. This is particularly important for families affected by addiction, as trust and boundaries may have been broken in the past. By establishing clear boundaries and building trust, family members can support each other in the recovery process.
Family therapy can also help family members develop methods of self-care and encourage interpersonal awareness. This is important for individuals who may have neglected their own needs due to the impact of addiction on the family.
Ultimately, family therapy seeks to create a happier, healthier family unit. By improving communication, addressing negative family roles and family conflict. Building trust, family members can work together to support each other in the recovery process.
At No Matter What Recovery, we use evidence-based modalities during our family therapy sessions so that we can measure and develop positive, long-term coping strategies. These modalities include:
CBT is a type of therapy that helps individuals identify and change negative patterns of thought and behavior. It is effective in treating addiction by helping individuals develop healthy coping strategies and reducing the risk of relapse.
DBT is a type of therapy that helps individuals develop skills to manage difficult emotions and improve relationships. It is effective in treating addiction by helping individuals develop healthy coping strategies and reducing the risk of relapse.
We know the recovery journey can be difficult, and so we encourage all our patients to engage in our group therapy. Our licensed family therapists manage and arrange for group therapy sessions among all our patients so that they can all make connections that will outlast their recovery journeys.
