Relapse Prevention Planning and Counseling Modalities for Addictions

──
Starting in the earliest stages of addiction recovery, having a plan for possible relapse is essential. Relapse Prevention Planning is a therapy modality (a type of counseling) that guides people to establish a plan when they face temptation to relapse in their addiction. If there is a plan in place, it is significantly easier to access the plan in the moment of temptation than it is to try to create a plan from scratch in a time of crisis.
Your plan could include:
This therapy has flexibility for the therapist and the client to brainstorm possible solutions together.
Your plan could include:
- Calling a trusted friend or family member for support.
- Scheduling additional therapy sessions.
- Going to a specific location where you know your temptation will be removed, like a church or somewhere public.
