Why is ongoing supportive therapy and coaching important?
The medicine alone may not be sufficient because a lifestyle change is involved, most especially a shift in perspective. The therapy provides perspective on the issues and feelings related to drinking from various points of view, coupled with a plan, based on your choices and goals, on living a life free of dependence on alcohol. The ongoing consultations support the patient in understanding how the diminution of craving works and how to accentuate benefits of decreased or ceased alcohol consumption. The program offers strong support and assistance to the patient as he or she observes patterns related to drinking and the resistances inherent in those patterns. Further, a key part ofThe Freedom From Alcohol® Method program is assisting and coaching the patient in making the breakthroughs that lead to success based on his or her goals and life design.
