In order to recover from alcoholism it is crucial to understand the process of alcohol addiction. For successful sobriety, you need to know what you're dealing with and how to address it effectively. When you get to the root of the problem, then you have the knowledge you need to end your addictions for good. Science tells us that alcoholism it is not a psychological disorder, a spiritual illness, weak will or character defects. Although alcohol addiction affects all areas of your life and is experienced physically in many parts of the body, addiction begins in the brain. Alcoholism is a brain disorder or disease.
For over a decade Bridging the Gaps (BTG) Integrative Addiction Treatment in Winchester, Virginia has been helping adult drug addicts, alcoholics, and dual-diagnosed clients find sustained, long-term recovery from the ravages of addiction. BTG’s unique holistic approach to addiction treatment addresses the physical, the spiritual, and the psychological aspects of addiction to illegal and prescription drugs, alcohol, and substance dependency. We “bridge the gaps” between traditional addiction treatment and alternative therapies.
Wellness of body mind and spirit is crucial to sustainable recovery. Some programs focus on "treating" the symptoms of addiction. The Courage to Change program is based on the National Institute on Drug Abuse studies that cite "addiction as a disease of the brain that can be treated and managed." The C2C program draws from time-tested bio-psychosocial therapies, as well as prevailing neuroscience, with a "systems" approach to recovery. The whole person is treated; body, brain, and spirit – to heal the many aspects of a person's life that have been destroyed not only by addiction, but the underlying causes (post traumatic stress, trauma, and abuse).
