Overview
With an emphasis on commitment, educational components, and strong family engagement, Mind Dynamics offers outpatient treatment services for alcohol and drug addiction. Mind Dynamics empowers clients to reclaim their lives from addiction by treating the whole person and offers strong support for clients who relapse during or after treatment. This treatment approach is based on the power of choice to be sober, as illustrated by Pete Lotterhos’ book, Life Extraordinary and Sober.

3-Tiered Recovery Infrastructure
- Mind Dynamics outlines three levels of recovery, where Level 1 emphasizes sobriety through experiential outpatient care to gain structure, stability, and routine.
- Level 2 begins to incorporate one’s environment and healing with clients’ loved ones. Here, families can participate in educational sessions to support their loved ones’ long-term sobriety.
- Level 3 helps clients build a fulfilling life.
Strong Family Involvement
- Emphasis on family involvement stems from the benefit of a supportive environment for sustained sobriety.
- Family therapy sessions allow loved ones to not only participate in the recovery process, but to also address dysfunctional family dynamics, improve communication, and learn how to better support sobriety for their loved one.
- Mind Dynamics offers support networks and educational resources to empower family members with knowledge and skills to support the recovery journey.
Comprehensive, Customized Treatment Plans
- The Mind Dynamics team collaborates with clients to create individualized treatment plans that incorporate support for co-occurring mental health disorders and address environmental factors.
- Therapy modalities include counseling, support groups, and methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Motivational Interviewing to address the underlying causes of addiction and help clients develop healthy coping strategies.
- Holistic therapies, such as yoga, mindfulness, and nutritional counseling help clients with physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being.
- Aftercare services include ongoing therapy and support groups to help clients navigate all the challenges of life, even after outpatient treatment concludes.
- For clients who experience relapse, rather than shame, the Mind Dynamics team evaluates their treatment plan, helps re-establish their inspiration for sobriety, and reconnects them with their support group. Skills-building and Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) can be used to prevent relapse, as well.
