Family Therapy for SUD

Substance use disorder is often described as a family disease, driven by secrecy and shame. At our Brooklyn treatment center, our family therapy program is designed to help patients uncover the underlying causes of their addiction and begin mending strained relationships with their loved ones. Many individuals in recovery come to realize that their addiction is deeply intertwined with family dynamics. Chronic, untreated alcoholism or drug addiction can erode connections with family and friends, leading to isolation and broken trust.

At Seek Counseling, our therapists work closely with each patient and their family to heal emotional wounds, release resentments, and chart a new course forward—a fresh start.

When a loved one struggles with addiction, family members often face deception and emotional turmoil. The impact of substance use can alter behavior and create a challenging environment, leading to harsh reactions from family members who may not fully understand the symptoms and signals of addiction. Healing cannot begin until recovery is underway. In our Brooklyn family therapy program, families participate in private group sessions, receive individual therapy, and engage in ongoing care to support a comprehensive recovery process.

Family Therapy is Essential for Recovery

In our Brooklyn family therapy program, loved ones have the opportunity to express their feelings about the client's alcohol or drug use and the associated behavioral issues. This process can reveal old patterns and pave the way for rebuilding trust. Family therapy, akin to group therapy, is facilitated by our skilled therapists, who encourage all family members to participate actively in the healing process.

During these sessions, underlying resentments are often brought to the surface, allowing the group to focus on recovery together. Our Brooklyn addiction therapists provide essential support, addressing both the addiction itself and the related challenges that arise.
