Therapy

Person Centered Approach

Brynawel House believes that recovery begins with the individual. People are given the opportunity to work through the changes they need to make to their lives: therapeutic group work, and one to one sessions in a safe secure environment all promote personal and social development.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy

Cognitive behavioural therapy or (CBT) for short is a short term psychological treatment which is particularly suitable for focused problems including alcohol dependency.

Cognitive therapy examines unwanted thoughts attitudes, beliefs and behavioural therapy, focusing on behaviour in response to those thoughts.

CBT aims to help people challenge their negative beliefs using positive thoughts. This takes place within the context of a joint therapist/client relationship identifying goals to work towards and provide the individual with the skills and insight to improve their quality of life.
The Therapy Programme

The programme focuses on one to one counselling and group work.

You will be encouraged to live and work with others as part of the therapy process. This will involve specific psycho-educational workshops and lectures and women’s and men’s groups.

During your stay you may be allocated specific tasks or written assignments. Residential clients will be assigned cleaning duties to encourage teamwork and sharing with others.

Towards the end of rehabilitation clients will be introduced to social situations under supervision as part of learning enactment. This will involve an element of graded practice and exposure to high risk situations and triggers under supervision.

Whenever possible you will be encouraged to keep a journal of your journey through rehabilitation.
