CBT

Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, is a type of psychotherapy that approaches treatment by teaching people how to think differently about problems and emotions.
According to cognitive-behavioral therapy, if we can change our thinking, we can change our emotions and behaviors. Similarly, if we have learned unwanted feelings and ways of thinking, we can unlearn them.

SOMATIC PSYCHOTHERAPY

Also known as somatic experiencing, somatic therapies are a form of therapeutic practices that intend to relieve the symptoms of PTSD and similar trauma-related issues.
This process aims to resolve the physical and mental difficulties that are brought forth by trauma so that the patient can better deal with them in everyday situations.

BRAINSPOTTING

The brain and body store more than we expect and they can hold on to painful memories we thought we stowed away in the archives, or attempted to hide.
Many of us often try to forget these memories by turning to drugs or alcohol as a coping mechanism.
Trained specialists take advantage of brainspotting exercises which can help us access where our traumas are stored in our brain so we can overcome them and live a healthier and more fulfilling life.

NUTRITIONAL THERAPY

After people change their diets and supplement their food intake with the right amount of amino acids, essential fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals, they can begin to deal with their alcoholism and drug abuse.
With the proper nutrition and supplements, the brain manufactures the chemicals that are needed to regulate mood and behavior.
At Iris Retreat food serves more frequent with evenly disbursed meal times: never hungry, never full. Learning to eat smaller meals and keeping a healthy snack on hand avoids sugar crashes and helps keep blood sugar levels stable to enhance long-term recovery.

EMDR

EMDR focuses on past life experiences that you and your therapist believe to be responsible for your addiction and mental health today.
The goal of EMDR is to help you focus on a particular memory — one that has contributed to your emotional disturbances —and transform it into positive cognition.
By addressing events that have caused your current mindset, you can work toward changing your thought processes behind these emotions—giving you the tools you need to adapt your mind to the future.

FAMILY THERAPY

When someone suffers from addiction, it not only affects them but also those around them.
Just like the person suffering from the addiction goes to therapy to address their issues, their family needs help too.
Family therapy has been used to treat many mental and behavioral health concerns and helps to med relationships that have been strained by addiction and mental health disorders.

NEUROFEEDBACK

Neurofeedback therapy is a powerful way to train your brain to function healthily—all
without any medication or invasive procedures.

When someone is addicted to something, the brain gives that substance the same level of significance as food. Addiction leads to the disruption of brain circuits involved in reward and control.
Neurotherapy pinpoints the misfiring brainwaves associated with a hijacked brain, and conditions it to reduce resistance to addiction treatment—improving aftercare compliance and long-term abstinence.
