Counseling is one of the crucial measures employed to treat addiction. SAINO Foundation lives with the motto, "the therapeutic value of one addict helping another is without parallel", at the grassroot level. To fulfill this criteria, it is integral that we employ in-house counselors who have a background of addiction history, but are sober today, since many years. They are best positioned to help the not so fortunate and still suffering Addicts/Alcoholics with the aid of their personal experience and above all empathy.
We supplement our counseling dynamics by the integration of professional counselors having academic expertise in the field of addiction and substance-abuse which adds to the advantage of correct identification and successful remedy of individual residential clients under treatment. The first and most important step for any counselor is listening and comprehending.
Once the patients trust is achieved they saturate their experiences by sharing their beliefs, feelings of anger, shame, guilt and remorse. Then the structure to motivate, guide, understand and support them along the journey to get back to normal lifestyle, takes shape.
The counselor communicates to get into the depths of a patients emotions to bring about a sustainable roadmap for a complete healing. We also include cognitive and behaviour therapy to optimise Recovery solutions. As mentioned earlier the counselor with personal addiction background and recovery experience is the best person to understand the depth of addiction trauma and treat accordingly, with empathy which is available 24X7 here at SAINO Foundation.
