It\u2019s used to treat depression, anxiety, and a variety of additional mental health disorders. But, it\u2019s also a great tool for substance abuse treatment, especially when it\u2019s one component of a recovery strategy or bigger treatment program.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The biggest benefit of CBT as it pertains to substance abuse is that it allows you to identify certain things. You\u2019ll be able to see your own negative patterns and what might fuel them. As a result, you can start to take control over those thoughts and patterns, and eventually break the cycle.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With that in mind, let\u2019s take a closer look at how cognitive-behavioral therapy can really help with substance abuse. If you or someone you know is struggling with drugs or alcohol, it could be a perfect solution.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the Purpose of CBT?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">CBT focuses on your thoughts rather than outside triggers. You can\u2019t change the world around you, but you can change how you respond to things. When you start to think that way, you\u2019ll be able to take your thoughts captive and feel more in control.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-large\"><img data-srcset=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Rompiendo-el-Ciclo.jpg 500w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Rompiendo-el-Ciclo-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Rompiendo-el-Ciclo-16x12.jpg 16w\" decoding=\"async\"   data-src=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Rompiendo-el-Ciclo.jpg\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3146 lazyload\"  sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"334\" src=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Rompiendo-el-Ciclo.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3146\" srcset=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Rompiendo-el-Ciclo.jpg 500w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Rompiendo-el-Ciclo-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Rompiendo-el-Ciclo-16x12.jpg 16w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you\u2019re using CBT to help with substance abuse, you can expect to change your old habits and replace them with new ones. You\u2019ll learn skills like improving self-control and how to cope with difficult situations.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Instead of avoiding or ignoring triggers, CBT will teach you the skills needed to handle them. Again, you can\u2019t change the world around you. In many cases, you won\u2019t be able to change your circumstances. But cognitive-behavioral therapy will help you see that you have control of your choices. When you\u2019re faced with situations that trigger cravings, CBT will offer you the skills to get through them.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Perhaps the most important purpose of CBT when it comes to substance abuse recovery is motivation. Relapsing is a common problem among those struggling with substance abuse and addiction. CBT can give you the motivation to remain in control. As a result, you\u2019re less likely to \u201cfall off the wagon\u201d and more likely to develop lifelong habit changes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Understanding the Process<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Still not sure if CBT is right for you? It can help if you know what to expect.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The process of cognitive-behavioral therapy for substance abuse will focus on functional analysis and skills training.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-large is-style-default\"><img data-srcset=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Understanding-the-process-of-Therapy.jpg 500w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Understanding-the-process-of-Therapy-300x93.jpg 300w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Understanding-the-process-of-Therapy-16x5.jpg 16w\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"   data-src=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Understanding-the-process-of-Therapy.jpg\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3147 lazyload\"  sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"155\" src=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Understanding-the-process-of-Therapy.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3147\" srcset=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Understanding-the-process-of-Therapy.jpg 500w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Understanding-the-process-of-Therapy-300x93.jpg 300w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Understanding-the-process-of-Therapy-16x5.jpg 16w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Functional analysis is like digging up data. It\u2019s meant to help you find the connection between your thoughts and behaviors. A therapist might ask you things like:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>What happened right before you used the substance?<\/li><li>Who were you with?<\/li><li>How did you feel before\/during\/after?<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By looking into situations and emotions, you\u2019ll be able to better understand the underlying reason(s) for your substance abuse. You\u2019ll also be able to determine where your weak spots are when it comes to coping.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That\u2019s where skills training comes in. Skills training is often used as a \u201crewiring\u201d of your thought process so you can change your old habits. As a result, you can replace those habits with new, healthy ones. You\u2019ll also learn how to cope with even the most triggering situations, so you\u2019ll remain in control of your behaviors.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-black-color has-white-background-color has-text-color has-background wp-block-heading\">Is CBT Right for You?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"alignright size-large\"><img data-srcset=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Get-Help.jpg 500w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Get-Help-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Get-Help-16x12.jpg 16w\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"   data-src=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Get-Help.jpg\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3148 lazyload\"  sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"334\" src=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Get-Help.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3148\" srcset=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Get-Help.jpg 500w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Get-Help-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Get-Help-16x12.jpg 16w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you or someone you know is struggling with substance abuse, consider CBT.
