Addiction Treatment Program for Men in Alpharetta
We believe that being able to address gender specific challenges in recovery is a critical aspect of effective treatment. Our program for men is designed to work with men around the ways in which their addictions, and co-occurring mental health symptoms, show up as it specifically relates to the more common issues men face in life.
Statistically speaking, men are more susceptible to alcohol and drug misuse. This is often due to societal norms that discourage emotional vulnerability. Biological factors, such as elevated testosterone levels, can also intensify aggression and risk-taking behaviors during recovery.
Some of the key areas that our men’s program focuses on as it relates to recovery is:
- Managing Stress, Anger, & Mood Instability
We utilize a range of therapeutic modalities such as motivational interviewing, Internal Family Systems and cognitive-behavioral strategies to challenge societal norms of "stoicism" and address stress from work and family. - Physical Exercise
We believe fitness and nutrition planning is an important aspect to one’s recovery. Our individualized plans and groups are used to counteract the physical decline associated with substance use, helping men set and achieve physical goals that align with their recovery. - Customized 12-Step Work
At the heart of our program is the foundations of the 12 steps. We work with men to address tendencies toward isolation and self-reliance, teaching them that that vulnerability can be an asset in life. - Building Community and Connection
Counterpoint believes that the brotherhood that is built in programming is one of the most important aspects. We prioritize creating safe spaces to discuss male-specific issues like post-addiction sexual health, financial concerns, and other topics that can carry guilt or shame. - Financial Empowerment
Finances can often be one of the biggest triggers to sobriety, and a barrier to achieving it. Our team helps men navigate economic stress, work to rebuild financially and offer budgeting workshops in order to teach skills to better manage finances.
