Holistic Addiction Treatment for the Body, Mind & Spirit

BTG Integrative Addiction Treatment believes that addiction is a “whole person” disease requiring treatment of the BODY, the MIND, and the SPIRIT. All of BTG’s treatment program components work as an integrative whole, helping our clients recover their physical health as well as providing them with the psychological and spiritual tools they will need for a life free from the ravages of drug addiction and alcoholism.

BODY What sets BTG apart from many other substance abuse treatment centers is our emphasis on the physiology of addiction. Research has shown that faulty brain chemistry – when left untreated, as in traditional treatment programs – leads to significant relapse rates. More than 70 percent of addicts/alcoholics receiving only traditional treatment relapse within six to twelve months. Programs like BTG that offer both psychological and physiological treatment have success rates between 65 and 80 percent.

MIND BTG recognizes the important role that the mind and emotions play in addiction and recovery. Our clients attend education sessions each day in which they are taught to understand the disease of addiction. They also learn about stress management, nutrition education, and communication skills, so that coping with “life on life’s terms” is no longer done with the crutch of drugs or alcohol. In group and individual therapy sessions, clients come to terms with the chronic nature of addiction and the wide-ranging effects the illness has had on their lives and the lives of those around them.

SPIRIT Underlying all that we do at BTG is acknowledgement of the importance of self-discovery and spiritual growth. Through the use of healing energy techniques, such as reiki and meditation, as well as the teaching embodied in the 12-Step program of AA/NA, our clients learn to re-connect with a power greater than themselves. Recovery is a lifelong journey and discovering a meaning or purpose for one’s life is essential to long-term sobriety.
