Overcoming Barriers to Drug & Alcohol Addiction Treatment

At Hickory House, recovery is possible

Overcoming barriers to drug and alcohol addiction recovery requires a combination of determination, support, and effective strategies. Addressing the specific barriers preventing you from moving forward, whether it is addiction denial, fear of what others might think, or financial concerns, is key to getting on a path to sobriety. With help from the skilled, compassionate addiction treatment team at Hickory House Recovery, a strong support network, and setting realistic goals, recovery is attainable.

Strategies for overcoming barriers to recovery

  • Seek Professional Help – Consulting with our trained addiction specialists, therapists, or counselors will provide valuable guidance and support throughout the recovery process. Our drug and alcohol addiction treatment program offers evidence-based treatments, personalized care plans, and access to resources that address your individual needs.
  • Build a Strong Support Network – Surrounding yourself with supportive friends, family members, or peers who understand the challenges of addiction can provide encouragement and accountability. Participation in support groups offers a sense of community and solidarity with others on the journey to recovery. Suggested support groups include:

Alcoholics Anonymous (AA)

Narcotics Anonymous (NA)

DHARMA Recovery

We host a DHARMA meeting each week at Hickory House Recovery. It is private to us and in a small group of 3-4 people.

Self-Management and Recovery Training (SMART Recovery)

SMART Recovery is an international community of peer support groups that help people recover from addictive and problematic behaviors using a self-empowering and evidence-informed approach. It is a secular, research-based program.

  • Develop Coping Skills – Our trained counselors will help you learn healthy coping mechanisms to manage stress, cravings, and negative emotions in order to maintain sobriety. Techniques such as mindfulness meditation, exercise, journaling, and relaxation exercises can help you navigate challenging situations without resorting to substance use.
  • Set Realistic Goals – Breaking the recovery journey into manageable steps and setting realistic goals will help you stay motivated and focused. Our team will guide you on your recovery journey.
  • Celebrate Progress – Celebrating milestones and achievements, no matter how small, reinforces positive behavior and boosts self-confidence. Count on us to be your biggest cheerleaders – celebrating your success every step of the way!
