Frequently Asked Questions

When does my consumption become an addiction?

When consumption negatively impacts your daily life, you struggle to stop despite consequences, or you experience withdrawal symptoms, it may be an addiction. A psychologist can help assess your use and find the right treatment.

What treatment methods are used for addiction?

Cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and relapse prevention are among the most effective methods. Treatment focuses on understanding triggers, developing alternative coping strategies, and building a supportive network.

Can family members also get help?

Yes, addiction affects the entire family. Many psychologists offer sessions for family members where you can learn about addiction, set healthy boundaries, and take care of yourselves. Family therapy can also be part of the treatment plan.
