Substance Use Disorder

Substance use disorder is a complex medical condition, not a personal failure. It can affect anyone, regardless of age, background, or life story. It comes with emotional, psychological, and physical challenges, but it’s treatable, and recovery is possible. At MLB Recovery, we understand the full impact of substance use. That’s why our approach goes beyond just addressing the symptoms. We offer evidence-based care, clinical support, and compassionate guidance to help you or your loved one take meaningful steps forward.

What Is Substance Use Disorder?

Substance use disorder (SUD) is a medical condition that affects how the brain functions. It can make it incredibly difficult to stop using drugs or alcohol, even when those substances are causing serious harm. When living with substance use disorder, you may notice changes in how you think, feel, and behave. But this doesn’t mean you’ve failed. Addiction isn’t about weakness or lack of willpower. It’s a disease, and like any disease, it can be treated.

SUD is more common than many people realize; nearly one in five adults lived with a substance use disorder in 2021. Although it’s widespread, many individuals face it alone due to stigma or a lack of access to care.

Therapies Used at MLB Recovery to Treat Substance Use Disorder

We use proven treatments to support each person. Our programs meet your needs in a safe, respectful space. These therapies treat substance use disorder by focusing on the whole person.

Individual Therapy

You'll work one-on-one with a licensed therapist in a space where you can speak freely and feel truly heard. Together, you'll explore your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, and begin to understand underlying issues that may be contributing to your addiction.

Group Therapy

In group therapy, you’ll connect with others who truly understand what you're going through. It’s a space where trust, support, and shared experiences help you feel less alone.

Trauma-Informed Treatment

Many people living with substance use disorder have experienced trauma or painful life events. Our approach is gentle, respectful, and rooted in trauma-informed care.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT helps you understand how certain thoughts can lead to harmful behaviors like substance use. With guidance and support, you’ll learn how to challenge those thoughts and replace them with healthier ways of coping and making choices that support your recovery.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

DBT teaches you practical skills to manage intense emotions. You'll learn how to stay grounded during moments of stress and how to make thoughtful, safe decisions, even when emotions feel overwhelming.

Supplementary Holistic Therapies

We believe in caring for the whole person. That’s why we offer holistic therapies like yoga, meditation, mindfulness, and art therapy. These practices can help you relax and manage stress.

Genesight Testing

We recognize that medication can play a key role in recovery for some individuals. That’s why we offer GeneSight testing. It is a simple genetic test that helps us understand how your unique biology may affect your response to psychiatric medications.
