Starting Substance abuse & addiction counseling

What is substance abuse & addiction counseling?

Substance abuse & addiction counseling can help people manage their urges to use the substance or engage in the activity they’re addicted to. In addition, it can help people manage the challenges that stem from their addiction from relationship issues to problems at work as well as those that their addiction may stem from like trauma.

How does substance abuse & addiction counseling work?

Thriveworks substance abuse & addiction counseling in Midlothian, VA works by helping one understand the underlying causes of their addiction, teaching them coping strategies, and recognizing their specific triggers. Long-term or ongoing substance abuse & addiction counseling can also help to prevent relapse.

Is substance abuse & addiction counseling conducted in person or online?

How long does substance abuse & addiction counseling last?

Midlothian, VA—Chesterfield Counseling for Addiction, Substance Use Disorder

The good news is that help is available once you realize you need it. A counselor or psychologist can assist you in taking back your life, whether you’re struggling with an addiction to alcohol, marijuana, or another substance.

At Thriveworks Midlothian in Chesterfield, our mission is to help people live healthier, happier, and more successful lives. Working with an addiction counselor can be a valuable step toward bettering your life and well-being—call our office today at (804) 537-2024 to get started.

Do I Have a Problem? Am I Addicted?

Recognizing the signs of a substance use problem is the first step to addressing it. Some common characteristics of substance abuse include:

  • Using a substance for longer periods or in larger amounts than intended
  • Spending excessive amounts of time obtaining and using the substance
  • Experiencing ongoing cravings
  • Failing to keep up with responsibilities at work or school
  • Missing significant events due to substance use
  • Continuing use even when it endangers one’s life
  • Increasing need for larger quantities to achieve the desired effect
  • Experiencing withdrawal symptoms when not using

If these descriptions resonate with you, you might have a substance use problem. Admitting you need help is the first step toward recovery, and it’s never too late to seek the treatment you need.

What Causes Addiction?

Understanding what triggered your addiction is essential to the healing process. Various factors can lead to addiction, from stress relief to genetics. Here are some common causes:

  • Stress Relief: People often turn to drugs in an attempt to relieve stress. However, there are healthier ways to cope, such as exercising, talking to a friend, or taking mental health days. A counselor can help you find better coping mechanisms.
  • Genetics or Learned Behavior: Those with family members who have struggled with addiction are at a higher risk due to genetics or learned behavior. A mental health professional can help manage these risks and behaviors.
  • Depression or Other Mental Illnesses: Depression is a common cause of addiction, as individuals may use substances to escape their feelings. A counselor can help manage both depression and addiction.

I have known Dena Wentz for many years. She is a compassionate and insightful advocate for everyone she encounters. She fully listens to you when you talk and is perceptive enough to take each individual's life situation into context. Instead of using a "one size fits all" approach, Dena truly works to understand each person's unique position and how that affects her or him on a larger scale. With Dena, I always feel appreciated and supported!

I have worked with Mrs. Dena Wentz for over a decade. During this time, she has always been an extremely stable positive force in our clinic. Her sense of fairness and common sense is beyond reproach and she keeps us all grounded in our approaches to various patient care circumstances. She often makes us stop and think about where the patient is coming from when we are frustrated with a patient's lack of compliance or adherence to recommended therapies. She is the kind of person you want to listen to your difficulties and concerns because she is such a caring and empathetic person. She will then make significant efforts to provide you with solutions. She is also a very thoughtful cheerleader and motivator for our team and makes sure to mark our achievements and our professional acknowledgments. She has frequently been there for me when I have struggled to work with patients and helped facilitate the communication channels I need to accomplish my role. I highly value my relationship with Dena we all are fortunate to have her on our team!
