Atlanta Experiential Therapy Program

‍

Our Atlanta experiential therapy is a variety of expressive tools and activities—such as role-playing, arts, music, animal care, guided imagery, or cool activities! The intention of experiential therapy is to focus on the activities and, through these encounters, better recognize emotions linked with success, sadness, responsibility, and self-esteem. Under the supervision of our primary therapists, the patient can discover and handle feelings of resentment, pain, or shame, related to their prior experiences, that may have been ignored or tucked away deep inside the mind.

Most research indicates that experiential therapy offers significant mental health benefits for addiction recovery. Samba’s experiential therapy may be offered in individual and group format. It is normally in combination with different styles of traditional talk therapy. At the same time, experiential therapy gets patients out of their own head, which helps them see things clearer.
