Abstract

Individual long-term integrated primary and psychological care are the cornerstones of our integrative medicine approach, especially in the context of treating addiction. While medications are an important tool in the process of recovery, therapy is necessary in order to help the patient to address their addiction as well as the myriad of psychological, relational, and personal issues that threaten their recovery. This chapter introduces the framework from which integrative medicine can intervene in addressing addiction in patients.
