Alcohol Treatment, Rehab & Online Therapy in SLC, Utah
Our proven treatment programs address more than your use of alcohol. We’ll customize your sobriety plan to meet your specific needs and situation. We will address other psychological issues that can accompany Alcohol Use Disorder. Although many people have a drink as a “pick me up,” alcohol depresses the brain. Alcohol lessens your inhibitions, slurs speech, and decreases muscle control and coordination, and may lead to an Alcohol Use Disorder.
When To Start Treatment
Signs of Alcohol Use Disorder:
- Memory loss
- Relationship issues with family, friends, school, and work
- Continuing use of alcohol to cope with problems or to feel “normal”
- Physical symptoms including a headache, anxiety, insomnia, nausea
- Isolation
- Drinking in secret
- Loss of interest in activities that do not involve drinking
- Irresponsible behavior such as involvement in crime or risky sexual activities
- Denial
- Increased alcohol tolerance
- Neglecting responsibilities such as work, family or school
- Spending increased amount of time drinking
- Irritability and mood swings
- Inability to stop drinking once you start
If you, your family or your friends start to notice these problems, you should seek the help of an alcohol treatment center or alcohol rehab center immediately. Treating the addiction fast helps to reduce further damage to health, relationships, and work of the patient.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a form of psychotherapy that helps identify and change distorted thinking that can lead to risky or unhealthy behavior. CBT is highly effective for individuals struggling with depression, PTSD, anxiety, OCD, bipolar disorder, addiction, and other mental health conditions. CBT can also be useful in managing emotional challenges, such as grief or loss, chronic pain and relationship conflicts. Untreated chronic, negative and distorted thinking can lead to problematic behaviors and overall dysfunction.
Through a series of one-on-one counseling sessions, CBT teaches specific recognition skills that identify faulty thinking and help modify existing beliefs and apply new, positive and practical techniques.
CBT creates an awareness of how thought patterns create our reality and determine how we behave. For instance, someone suffering from depression is experiencing cognitive errors. These errors produce automatic, spontaneous and distorted thinking. These cognitive errors can lead to a negative mindset and cause a person to jump to negative conclusions that are riddled with catastrophe.
CBT helps stop negative thinking by identifying situations in your life that might be producing unwanted results. Recognizing the patterns, behaviors and thinking that are contributing to your challenges is the first step.
You’ll learn to:
- Utilize a thought record, journal, voice recorder or app
- Re-align distorted thoughts
- Control and balance reactions
- Accurately self-evaluate and align emotions correctly
