Addiction Counseling in Nashville, TN

Every year in America, more and more people become victims of addiction, something that is defined by Psychology Today as a “condition that results when a person ingests a substance (e.g., alcohol, cocaine, nicotine) or engages in an activity (e.g., gambling, sex, shopping) that can be pleasurable but the continued use/act of which becomes compulsive and interferes with ordinary life responsibilities, such as work, relationships, or health.”

Thriveworks Counseling in Nashville, TN has addiction counselors who can offer their help and guidance today. Call us to get started or find out more about our services.

Basic Addiction Signs

The signs and symptoms of addiction are pretty standard, no matter what the addiction is. The typical addict will display some or all of the following symptoms:

  • Tolerance to the substance or activity that they’re addicted to
  • Short-temperedness and irritability when not consuming or taking part in the activity that they’re addicted to
  • Dishonesty. The addict will lie about their addiction, to others as well as themselves.

These are not the only symptoms of addiction, but if you’re displaying at least two of the above signs, there’s a good chance that you might have an addiction problem.

What’s Going to Happen to Me?

If you don’t get help for your addiction, the future is pretty bleak. Depending on what you’re addicted to, your addiction could see you in any of the below scenarios:

  • Alone. Your family, friends, and loved ones are no longer in your life
  • Penniless. You’ve lost your job and all your money goes to feed your addiction
  • Sick. You’re suffering from the physical effects of your addiction
  • Dead.

Is There a Cure?

Addiction can be cured, but it’s not easy. It takes a “rewiring” of the brain in order to undo the damage that has been done and convince the brain that it doesn’t need drugs or alcohol or whatever in order to find peace. That takes hard work and the expertise of a Nashville addiction counselor who will use the power of therapy, both group and individual, to determine the underlying cause of your addiction and work with you to overcome it, step-by-step, all the way until you get your life back.

There is a life beyond addiction. Please contact Thriveworks Counseling in Nashville, TNm to start living it.

Phillip Owen

★★★★★
My husband and I have known Phillip about four years through church and our lifegroup. The first thing we noticed about Phillip was his sensitivity, concern for others, and an immediate interest in someone's feelings. Phillip has worked many hours as a volunteer in our children's ministry, as well as volunteering with crafts for our annual summer camp from church. Phillip lights up a room with his attentiveness and his warmth.
