Depending on several factors, such as the diagnosis and severity of symptoms, there is a specific treatment that suits your needs and preferences. Here at Liberty Home, we use evidence-based and cost-effective treatment modalities to help individuals navigate most substance and processed addictions, as well as mental health problems.
Liberty Home Clinic offers residential treatment that provides 24/7 intensive support and care for people with substance addiction and mental health conditions. Our comprehensive programs and treatment plans utilise holistic approaches, medication management, and evidence-based therapies to help individuals manage their symptoms and support recovery.
Mental health treatments involve various strategies used by professionals to help individuals navigate their mental conditions. Here at Liberty Home Clinic, we primarily use the following treatment options:
Motivational interviewing (MI) is a form of counseling technique designed to help individuals resolve ambivalent feelings, uncertainties, and insecurities and find internal motivation within themselves to make positive changes. MI provides a supportive environment where individuals are encouraged to talk about their need for change and the reason for wanting to change. The primary goal of the conversation is to evoke a topic about change and commitment. MI is typically used to treat people with substance use problems.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a structured form of talk therapy that mental health professionals commonly use to treat a wide range of disorders because of its high success rates. It is based on the idea that there is an interaction among our thoughts, emotions, and behaviours. CBT works by identifying irrational thought patterns, modifying them, and replacing them to enable individuals to have a more rational way of thinking. The therapist also works on helping individuals recognise maladaptive behaviours and change them with adaptive ways of coping.
Individuals who undergo CBT typically attend five to 20 weekly sessions, generally about 45 to 60 minutes each. The first few sessions begin with assessing the symptoms, their severity and frequency, how they affect the individual’s daily life, and setting goals for treatment. In addition, homework is given, which includes exercises to help individuals apply the skills acquired from the therapy sessions in their day-to-day lives. CBT can be delivered in either individual or group therapy sessions.
Generally, our professionals here at Liberty Homes Clinic use CBT to treat substance use disorders (SUD), borderline personality disorder (BDP), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), major depressive disorder (depression), bipolar disorders, anxiety disorders, eating disorders, and other severe mental illnesses.
Another evidence-based treatment intervention is Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). It is a form of CBT that focuses on teaching individuals to regulate their emotions and improve interpersonal relationships. DBT is conducted weekly and usually lasts for an hour. Considering that DBT is a structured therapy, it follows these four modules in providing individuals with therapeutic skills that are essential to alleviating symptoms and achieving a fulfilling life:
DBT can be utilised to help individuals with SUD, BPD, self-harm and suicidal behaviours, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), eating disorders, depression, and anxiety.
Anyone is at risk of becoming addicted to synthetic drugs. Regardless of age, economic status, or background, drug addiction does not discriminate. However, drug treatment is just as universal, and while anyone can become addicted, anyone can recover from addiction.
The exact definition of mental disorders remains a debatable topic within the psychology and psychiatry communities. The term mental disorder is used interchangeably with psychological disorder, psychiatric disorder, or mental illness. However, to establish a common language, most professionals agreed to define a mental disorder as a syndrome that causes a clinically significant disturbance in an individual’s way of thinking, regulating emotion, or behaviour. It is typically associated with significant distress or disability in different areas of functioning, such as social, occupational, or other important activities.
Mental health professionals diagnose mental disorders. They are utilising either the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual for Mental Disorders (DSM) or the International Classification of Diseases (ICD) to determine whether or not the symptoms being manifested by the individual fit the diagnostic criteria for a specific disorder. In addition, comprehensive clinical tools such as interviews, behavioural observations, and standardised psychological tests are likewise used to aid the diagnosis. In some cases, a medical test can be performed to rule out if other medical conditions are causing the symptoms.
