Why does this program cover all types of addictions instead of specific ones?
Many people have more than one addiction. All addictions affect the brain and behavior in similar ways. Treating only one addiction often leads to relapse. Addictions usually share the same causes, like childhood trauma, attachment issues, or other mental health problems. Separate programs for each addiction would waste time, since the causes and best fixes are mostly the same. The most effective tools work well for both substance and behavioral addictions.

Does this program address the underlying reasons why I drink or use drugs?
Yes. To successfully address addiction you need to understand its roots and what keeps it going. The program covers key causes like challenging relationships, past trauma, and other mental health issues that fuel addiction.
