Behavioural Rehab For Your Addiction

Behavioural problems and addictions can be just as destructive and damaging to the individual and their family as alcohol and drugs.

Common examples of behavioural addictions include:

  • Gambling addiction

  • Sex addiction

  • Gaming addiction

  • Eating disorders

  • Love addiction

  • Codependency

  • Pornography addiction

  • Shopping and spending addiction

All behavioural addictions can carry severe consequences including financial debt, loss of jobs, destroyed relationships, physical and mental illness, severe anxiety, depression, and even suicidal ideation.

Behavioural addictions require professional treatment. Behavioural rehab provides the best in tailored behavioural therapies that cannot be accessed to the same degree of speciality or intensity on the NHS.


What is a Behavioural Addiction?

A behavioural addiction is where an individual becomes addicted to a particular behaviour or activity to the point where it becomes detrimental to their mental, physical, social, and spiritual health.

The individual has no control to resist these behaviours and they are carried out compulsively, even when there is a desire to stop and negative consequences are being accumulated.

The brain will receive pleasurable rewards as a result of the behaviour but will become tolerant over time. The individual is then compelled to take bigger risks with their behaviour in order to satisfy the brain, which will have rewired itself to compulsively feed the addiction.

Recovery from Behavioural Addiction

Behavioural addiction can be successfully treated with an individualised treatment programme. Therapies that have been proven to work in helping an individual to overcome a behavioural addiction include:

  • Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

  • Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT)

  • Behavioural psychotherapy

  • Behavioural counselling

  • Individual therapy

  • 12-Step therapy

  • Group therapy

  • Behavioural abstinence coaching

Whatever your budget, circumstances, or location, SBS Treatments can conduct a free of charge, no-obligation assessment of your treatment needs. From there, we can formulate a professional treatment plan ensuring that all elements of your treatment requirements are addressed comprehensively.

Those that suffer from a behavioural addiction often suffer from an alcohol or drug problem in addition. This is not uncommon. They may also suffer from a dual diagnosis illness, such as Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Anxiety Disorder, Depression, Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), or Bipolar Disorder.

It is critical that all illnesses presenting are addressed comprehensively and simultaneously in order to safeguard against relapse.
