It creates intense euphoria followed by severe crashes, leading to compulsive use and rapid addiction development. Meth causes significant changes to brain structure and function, affecting decision-making, memory, and motor skills.

Our Methamphetamine Treatment Approach
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
Intensive CBT to address the psychological aspects of meth addiction. We help patients identify triggers, develop coping strategies, and change thought patterns that lead to drug use. CBT is particularly effective for stimulant addictions like methamphetamine.
Contingency Management
Evidence-based behavioral intervention that provides tangible rewards for positive behaviors like staying drug-free and attending treatment sessions. This approach has shown excellent results for methamphetamine addiction by reinforcing recovery behaviors.
Medical Support & Monitoring
Comprehensive medical care addressing the physical health consequences of meth use. We monitor cardiovascular health, treat dental problems, address skin conditions, and provide nutritional support to help the body heal from meth damage.
Long-term Cognitive Rehabilitation
Specialized programs to address cognitive impairments caused by methamphetamine use. We provide memory training, attention exercises, and executive function rehabilitation to help restore brain function and improve quality of life.
Methamphetamine Recovery Challenges
Severe Depression and Fatigue
Meth withdrawal involves intense depression, extreme fatigue, and inability to experience pleasure. These symptoms can last for months, requiring ongoing medical and psychological support.
Cognitive Impairment
Methamphetamine causes significant brain damage affecting memory, attention, and decision-making. Recovery requires specialized cognitive rehabilitation and may take years for full brain healing.
Intense Cravings
Meth creates powerful, long-lasting cravings that can persist for years. Our behavioral therapies teach patients how to manage these cravings and avoid relapse triggers effectively.
Social and Legal Consequences
Meth addiction often involves legal problems, damaged relationships, and social isolation. Recovery requires rebuilding trust, addressing legal issues, and developing healthy social connections.
