Many addicts are daunted by reaching out and seeking help. Sometimes this gets to the point where the state mandates rehabilitation in extreme cases. Addiction is not a choice, this is a common misconception in the United states. Addiction is a disease and a sickness that many people struggle with everyday.
Acknowledging addiction is hard and can be daunting at times, but is a way for addicts to begin their path to sobriety. Sobriety is not an easy path to go down and takes a lot of work, support, and time. Resources such as Alcoholics Anonymous or Narcotics Anonymous are groups that prove to addicts that they are not alone in their struggles.

The Johnson intervention model is an approach in which family members and friends of the addict voice how their addiction has affected them. This is a very personal model because addiction is not only taxing on the addict themselves, but the friends and family around them. For addicts this model includes family members, friends, and colleagues.
Friends and family expressing how their loved ones’ addiction is affecting their personal life can give the struggling addict insight. The systemic intervention model is different, yet also effective. This model digs deep into psychological relationships, and as such, is a more prolonged intervention model.
Our office puts distinct emphasis on listening to people and allowing them to express themselves. We give suggestions based on that self expression and want to help in any way possible. Even as a high school student in Darien, people would open up to Robert DiRoma Jr. about their struggles.

When someone is in need of addiction counseling, it is imperative that they have endless support from the community around them. Many see addiction as a wrong doing, however, it is a sickness. Every sickness needs to be treated for a long period of time.
Addiction counseling is one of the most important steps to overcoming your addiction and can be hard to manage. There are several steps that one needs to take before acknowledging that counseling is needed. We focus on getting you long term help rather than short term help.
As stated previously, addiction counseling is the most significant part in overcoming addiction. Most addicts enter drug rehabilitation centers to get sober or join groups such as AA or NA. Those groups are extremely beneficial to overcoming addiction.
Alcoholics and Narcotics anonymous is also helpful in the long run. Surrounding yourself with people who are going through similar issues that you are is highly beneficial. You are not alone in your journey.
Group settings are particularly beneficial due to the cycle-like nature of them. You start by going into the group environment, and then hear the stories of others. By going back time and time again you are not only making yourself stronger but the others around you stronger.
With experience in helping individuals with treatment, we strive to create a safe haven for you to share your truth and struggles.
