Steps to Unlock Your Addiction Using

Neuro Behavioral Therapy As technology improves and behavioral research gains deeper insights into human brain function, the field of neuroscience is rapidly evolving – providing remarkable insights into how the mind functions, especially when it comes to the areas of mental health and addiction. Based on these powerful new insights, neuro-rehabilitation is taking a science-based approach

to identifying and ending addictive behaviors. There are now several different neuro-rehabilitation treatment approaches that can be used to address specific patient conditions.

Here at Unity Behavioral Health, we are at the forefront of using these methods in a clinical setting, helping provide unmatched results for our patients.

About Unity Behavioral HealthAt Unity Behavioral Health, we employ evidence-based practices that have been proven scientifically to have a positive impact on recovery. We rely on a team of highly trained, multidisciplinary professionals to outline a step-by-step plan for our patients to achieve success during rehab. Our process begins with a medically supervised detox, where patients are monitored 24-hours per day, and a thorough psychiatric evaluation to uncover the impact any preexisting mental illnesses may have had on the development of addiction. Using this information, we create a personalized treatment plan for each patient. Our team of addiction care specialists only use recovery strategies that are supported by extensive research to help our patients find their individual paths to lasting sobriety.


HRV BIOFEEDBACKIn recent years there has been growing use of heart rate variability biofeedback as a treatment for a variety of disorders and for performance enhancement. Using HRV biofeedback, patients can learn to control their heart rate in response to various stimulation. This increased capacity to regulate emotional response has therapeutic implications for mood, anxiety, and impulse control disorders and is especially useful for the detox process. The effects of heartrate variability makes patients feel calm and relaxed thru the detox process.

STEP 1

DISCOVERING REAL PROBLEMS IN THE BRAINCareful assessment – using both technology as well as “old fashioned” paper-based instruments, is the foundation for uncovering the root causes of addictive behavior. These psychometric assessments help track the problems to address in the brain from different addictions to depression, anxiety and other behavioral symptoms.

STEP 2

UNLOCKING THE CODES TO THE BRAINA quantitative EEG (qEEG) allows us to actually map the brain and target spots of hyperactivity and hypoactivity which in turn will inform the creation of a personalized neurotherapy plan. This information provides unprecedented insight into mental health disorders and even brain injuries. qEEGs are revolutionizing the way we diagnose mental health disorders and are quick, safe and easy! It only takes about an hour to record your brain’s activity. We place a cap on your head and record for 5-10 minutes, once with your eyes open and again with eyes closed. This gives us a “baseline” for how your brain functions.

STEP 3

INTERPRETATION VIA PRECISION MEDICINEBy combining HRV biofeedback, appropriate assessment tools and qEEG readings, your neuro technician can assemble extremely detailed information regarding your brain functions. This granular level of data then allows us to create individualized and precision neurotherapy treatments specific to each patient’s needs.

STEP 4


PHOTOBIOMODULATIONPhotobiomodulation uses light to create physiological changes in our system. The application of low-power lasers or light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to the brain produces energy created in the mitochondria. You will feel a boost of energy for the first time since your brain was hijacked by drugs or alcohol. Photobiomodulation will help you focus and make you feel alert and ready to go.

STEP 6

TRANSCRANIAL DIRECT CURRENT STIMULATION (tDCS)tDCS is a form of neurostimulation that uses constant, low direct current delivered via electrodes on the head. Applying tDCS in the prefrontal areas of the brain is where decision making processes are modified. By modulating the decision making processes in the prefrontal areas of the brain, we can decrease impulsivity.

STEP 8

swLORETA qEEG GUIDED NEUROFEEDBACKUsing powerful imaging technology, patients are able to actually see the results of their brain training in realtime. This “brain training” allows you to exercise the parts of your brain needed to rehab your brain. This type of training will start to develop those NEW neural pathways to pleasure and unlock the addictive chains that have hijacked the brain.

INTERSESSION ASSESSMENTSAs your rehab progresses, we continue to perform intersession assessments in order to track your progress and adjust your neurotherapy sessions as needed. These critical brain mapping evaluations help to assure your brain in on track for positive change.


TRANSFER OF TRAININGOne of the more promising breakthroughs in therapy are the so called “third wave” cognitive behavioral therapies. These therapies are aimed at increasing the effectiveness of traditional cognitive behavioral interventions. In other words – will you be able to apply what you have learned during rehab back in the real world? We employ these third wave cognitive behavioral interventions during the brain trainings so you can take the techniques you have learned in the lab and use them in everyday life.

A PERMANENT REBOOT While many rehab experiences can help you “dry out” from your chemical dependencies, often they do little to help you break the long-term cycle of addiction. By carefully using the neurotherapies described above, Unity Behav-ioral Health can help you systematically unlock the chains of addiction and give your brain a new start in life. Instead of just treating the symptoms of addiction, we help you to permanently reboot your brain, offering you a new start in life – free from the power of addictive behaviors.
