Behavioral therapy has become increasingly popular as a primary rehabilitation tool for addiction in Ontario because it can help resolve addiction by modifying a person's thought process and behavior patterns. Things which once activated one's addictive behaviors doesn't receive the same type of response after successful behavioral therapy, and it will also help improve the participant's overall coping and life skills so they can have a higher quality of life.
Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy can help identify problem areas and destructive behaviors and help the person in recovery learn how to address these behaviors and problems more productively by practicing more effective coping mechanisms. Motivational Enhancement Therapy deals with primarily an individual's ambivalence toward treatment and resolving their addiction issues. Basically this type of behavioral therapy encourages the individual to adjust their mindset about their addiction so they can succeed at rehabilitation and receive it of their own will. Family Behavior Therapy can assist family members to effectively deal with addiction and co-occurring disorders, and helps encourage families in the recovery process so that improving the home environment is also one of the main goals. This type of behavioral treatment has been found to be more successful than just basic counseling, particularly for teens with behavior and conduct issues.
