Intensive addiction assistance
Help with addiction
Are you looking for addiction help? If you just can't get a grip on your craving for certain substances or behaviors, U-center offers help with inpatient and (when indicated) outpatient treatment. During your treatment, your treatment program is based on a number of basic interventions. For addiction, this is primarily detox and cognitive behavioral therapy. Additional interventions include body-oriented treatments, expressive therapies and lifestyle change interventions. Individual counseling, group therapy, partner relationship and systems therapy are also used.
It is important that you become active again and build a daily rhythm, structure and physical condition. We always consider the underlying factors during your treatment, such as your environment, personality and other possible causes.
How do I get rid of my addiction?
When you want to get rid of your addiction, the first step is to acknowledge that you are addicted to certain substances or behaviors. Getting rid of your addiction is very difficult, so it is important to seek help. Perhaps you have already tried several times to quit or cut down or you have had several therapies. Despite all the help, you have not been able to get a grip on your addiction.
Sometimes outpatient help is not enough to get rid of your addiction and it is good to stay in a different environment during your treatment. At U-center, you start with an inpatient admission with (when indicated) outpatient follow-up treatment. During your first contact with us we will explain to you how the application procedure works and together we will investigate whether U-center can be a suitable treatment for you.
During a short-term stay at U-center, you'll receive integrated addiction treatment and we'll also look at underlying factors that maintain your addiction. In our multiple disorders clinic, we work not only on your addiction, but also on the underlying causes.
U-center offers help with your addiction
How does U-center treat your addiction?
Treatment for your addiction is part of a broader approach that focuses on your entire lifestyle. Our treatment is primarily practical in nature. So we offer not just theories, but directly applicable changes. U-center has 12 years of experience treating addictions.
In treatment at U-center, you actively work with yourself. In addition to your addiction, we also look at underlying problems that play a role in your dependency. Often an addiction involves multiple problems. Think of a combination of depression, anxiety, trauma or another addiction. So there may also be other causes or consequences that perpetuate your symptoms.
All of this requires customization. That is why we work from an integral approach, in which we include everything that affects your life and the drug addiction, alcohol addiction or behavioral addiction. Consider also your personality, relationships, family situation, work and physical health. Together with the treatment team, you examine the causes of your addiction and, with new insights, change the behavioral patterns that maintain your symptoms.
Behavioral addiction treatment
At U-center, you get personalized treatment for your behavioral addiction. We treat you as a person, not just your diagnosis. A gambling addiction, sex addiction, gaming addiction or social media addiction can be very difficult to get rid of. Together, we work with you to stop or reduce the behavior and to change the patterns that maintain the symptoms. We examine the underlying issues and causes of the problem. Your social life also plays an important role in treatment. We strengthen your mental state and help you find a healthy balance.
Inpatient treatment for addiction
In an intensive program, we do everything we can to help you, so that you make progress in a short period of time. In doing so, we also expect a lot of commitment on your part. Admission with stay offers the advantages of short-term, intensive, integrated treatment of all disorders at the same time. In every phase of treatment, e-health is an integral part of your treatment program.
You will spend the first six weeks in our clinic in Epen. In a personal treatment plan, you will draw up what you want to achieve and how you and your treatment team will realize that during your stay. The welcoming environment and numerous facilities within the clinic ensure that you have every opportunity to work on yourself.
Outpatient treatment addiction
We know that the transition from inpatient back to daily life can be stressful and difficult. That's why after your inpatient stay, when indicated, you have several weeks of outpatient treatment. In the eight weeks following your inpatient treatment, you'll put your new insights and acquired knowledge into practice (when indicated) under the guidance of your outpatient therapists. During the outpatient program, you will continue to practice with the knowledge you have gained from the clinic.
