Cannabis use disorder counseling from our Thriveworks therapists in Marietta can help people manage their urges to use cannabis. In addition, it can help people manage the challenges that stem from their cannabis use disorder, from relationship issues to problems at work, as well as those that their disorder may stem from, like trauma.
Cannabis use disorder counseling works by helping one understand the underlying causes of their disorder, teaching them coping strategies, and recognizing their specific triggers. Long-term or ongoing cannabis use disorder counseling can also help to prevent relapse.
Cannabis use disorder counseling at Thriveworks Marietta, GA is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
The length of cannabis use disorder counseling in Marietta depends on the individual’s needs, the extent and severity of their disorder, and the problems that might stem from it. That said, people can make meaningful progress in cannabis use disorder counseling in the first weeks to months.
Many people have found themselves using weed more often than they ever intended to use it and are having trouble quitting. Can you relate? If you are trying to quit, but are finding it more difficult than you anticipated, therapy may be a good option.
Thriveworks Marietta offers treatment for cannabis use disorder that has helped many people through the detox process and equipped them for life without weed. Reach out today to get started.
Cannabis is a plant that contains Delta-9-TetraHydrocannabinol (THC), a compound that affects people’s minds. In large doses, it also causes hallucinations. When in the blood stream, THC causes the brain-body connection to slow.
Many people use weed in legal and safe ways. But many people also struggle with addiction. Similar to alcohol, not all cannabis use is harmful or even addictive. DSM-5 defines Cannabis use disorder (CUD) as using weed regularly for at least one year and experiencing impaired functioning and increased disruptions in life that is manifested through at least two of these symptoms:
According to DSM-5, these factors may increase a person’s risk of CUD:
Treatment for CUD is often effective with the right support systems in place, but sometimes the greatest obstacle to overcome is taking the first step to acknowledge the problem. False information, a tolerant culture, and self-deception about its effects can blind people to the harm cannabis may be causing in their lives. If you could relate to the list of symptoms for CUD, then it may be time to seek out help.
Professional treatment that involves cognitive behavior therapy has helped many people overcome the challenges of treating CUD. Cognitive behavior therapy seeks to treat the root causes of CUD, challenging false or negative belief structures and replacing them with true and positive ones. Therapy may come in the form of individual counseling or support groups. A therapist familiar with treating CUD can help people determine the treatment that may benefit them the most.
If you feel like it’s time to quit or curb your cannabis use, Thriveworks Marietta has experienced therapists waiting to help. Our office has helped many people find treatment for CUD that works for them.
