Family Therapy

We often think of addictions as personal issues. In reality, one person’s substance use disorder can touch an entire family — changing relationships in complex and devastating ways. Family therapy at Boca Recovery Center untangles these complex connections and uses the power of a family’s love to promote health and healing. This science-based approach can help you build a stable life in recovery.

Family Therapy at Boca Recovery Center

Who can you lean on when times are tough? Who do you trust more than anyone else? For most people, the answer is family. But for people touched by substance abuse, family connections can be frayed or broken. Therapy at Boca Recovery Center can help.

At Boca Recovery Center, we are aware that treating a family is more challenging than treating an individual. Our staff is trained to manage complicated family situations with skill and compassion.

The family therapists at Boca Recovery Center can help your family recreate a stable, functional environment where your loved one can practice sustained abstinence. Our counselors are experienced in applying family therapy across various cultural and social situations.

What to Expect

1

Evaluation

Boca Recovery Center uses a tailored approach to SUD care. We’ll discuss your addiction, family history, and prior treatment approaches. Then, we’ll help you decide if including your family is an important part of your therapeutic plan.

2

Learning

You’ll learn how your SUD impacts — and might be supported by — family dynamics. Your close family members will learn how to help you practice new skills to stay sober for a lifetime. You’ll emerge as a stronger, healthy family unit.

3

Treatment

Family therapists who specialize in addiction rehab facilitate discussions and problem-solving sessions. These sessions may include the entire family or a subset of family members. Sometimes, the session involves someone other than the one using alcohol or drugs.

 

Benefits of Family Therapy

Family therapy allows you to address conflicts caused by addiction. It’s a safe, effective, and proven method to help people build a support group they can lean on in recovery.

These are some of the known benefits of family therapy:[1-3]

  • Retention - When your family is deeply committed to your recovery and actively working with you, dropping out of care is harder and relapse may be less likely.
  • Addiction understanding - Family therapy helps you recognize how your substance use changes your relationships and how you can solve long-standing problems.
  • Family changes - Therapy helps your family make positive changes that strengthen your bond and make preserving your sobriety easier.
  • Efficacy - Involving your family can strengthen your resolve to truly change your life.

Britt

Boca recovery housing was very comfortable for the time I spent there. The apartment has two bedrooms fully furnished with kitchen appliances and all the necessary items to cook meals every day. It definitely allowed me to transition back to reality very easily as I was attending groups and AA meetings every day. I enjoyed using the gym and basketball they provided. I would recommend to anyone.

Erik

It was the most loving and caring facility I have ever attended.
