Denial (and shame) are quite prominent in the early stages of treatment, but counseling and therapy can help. CommonHealth recognizes the need for consistent counseling. Frankfort, KY patients are encouraged to utilize the support services and resources provided by CommonHealth’s counselors to guide their addiction recovery.
Counseling and therapy make up the majority of the time spent in treatment for substance abuse or addiction, and for good cause — counseling is essential because:

It’s quite common for patients to enter treatment with the belief that they can later resume occasional periods of substance use or that their problem with drugs or alcohol isn’t really as bad as others have made it out to be. Counselors at CommonHealth provide support for addicts both in crisis and in long-term recovery from addiction.
The decision to seek treatment for addiction to drugs or alcohol is not easy. We realize a great deal of trust must be established between yourself and your counselor when you seek the services of any Kentucky counseling center. Frankfort, KY CommonHealth’s counselors build strong therapeutic alliances with their patients. What does this mean?
“Patients can trust in their counselors, feel comfortable speaking with them, and experience deep relief after a counseling appointment — patients do this with the trust and understanding that their counselors have their best interests in mind.”
At CommonHealth, we make is easy for patients to be admitted into one of our treatment programs for counseling.

Your personalized consultation will help us determine if you’re a good candidate for our drug or alcohol outpatient counseling in Frankfort, KY. The process won’t take long and helps us to determine the appropriate clinical steps required in order to determine placement into one of our professional substance use disorder counseling programs.
If you’re still unsure or feeling like you may not need counseling, it’s important for you to realize that addiction is much more than just a physical dependence on drugs or alcohol.
