Treatment Program for Substance Abuse

Our Substance Abuse Treatment Program is tailored to support individuals struggling with addiction. We offer a wide array of evidence-based services to help you overcome substance use and regain control of your life.

Comprehensive Assessment & Diagnosis

The Substance Abuse Treatment Program at Noosa Psychological Services begins with a thorough and comprehensive assessment of the individual's substance use history, psychological health and overall well-being. This initial assessment is crucial for understanding the extent of the addiction, identifying co-occurring mental health conditions and determining the most appropriate course of treatment. During this phase, our clinicians conduct interviews, administer psychological tests and review the individual's medical history to create a detailed profile. This assessment forms the foundation of a personalised treatment plan that addresses both the symptoms of addiction and the underlying causes.

Evidence-Based Interventions & Therapies

Our program is built on evidence-based interventions that are tailored to meet the unique needs of each participant. Cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) is one of the primary therapeutic approaches used in the program, helping individuals recognise and change negative thought patterns that contribute to substance abuse. Motivational interviewing is another key component, encouraging participants to find internal motivation to change and commit to recovery. Additionally, we incorporate relapse prevention strategies, which teach individuals how to anticipate and manage triggers that could lead to a relapse. Our holistic approach ensures that all aspects of the individual's life are considered.
