Addiction Treatment Gorzów Wielkopolski

Addiction to alcohol, drugs or medications is a disease that requires professional treatment - not willpower or good intentions. Nasz Gabinet Gorzów Wielkopolski was established so that residents of Gorzów Wielkopolski and the entire Lubuskie Voivodeship could access comprehensive medical and therapeutic help without the need for long-distance travel. The clinic at ul. Sikorskiego 107 accepts Patients from Gorzów Wielkopolski, Zielona Góra, Kostrzyn nad Odrą, Międzyrzecz, Sulęcin and other towns in the region.

Addiction treatment in Gorzów Wielkopolski - outpatient approach

All medical and therapeutic procedures are carried out on an outpatient basis - the Patient comes for a scheduled appointment, procedure or therapy session and returns home the same day. This model allows combining treatment with work and family responsibilities, which is particularly important for those who cannot or do not wish to stay in an inpatient facility.

First contact with the clinic - no obligation

The first step is a medical qualification, during which the medical staff assesses the Patient's health, takes a history of the addiction and proposes an individual treatment plan. The visit takes place in a calm, confidential atmosphere. No referral is required - all you need is the desire to change. Call: 880 808 880 or use the online booking form on our website.

Addiction treatment in Gorzów Wielkopolski at Nasz Gabinet combines medical care, psychotherapy and long-term support. Each Patient receives a therapeutic plan tailored to the type of addiction, health condition, life situation and expectations.

Stages of addiction treatment

1. Medical stabilisation - includes alcohol detox or drug detox, medical qualification, laboratory diagnostics and pharmacotherapy. The aim is to restore the body's physical balance and alleviate withdrawal symptoms
2. Addiction psychotherapy - individual and group therapy helps understand the reasons for reaching for substances, identify situations that trigger relapses and develop new coping strategies
3. Long-term support - regular follow-up visits, maintenance sessions, help in crisis situations. Addiction is a chronic disease - time and consistency are needed to consolidate treatment outcomes

This model works regardless of whether the Patient is struggling with alcohol, drug, medication addiction or behavioural addictions. Nasz Gabinet Gorzów Wielkopolski adapts the intensity and type of therapy to the Patient's dynamically changing needs.

Alcoholism is the most commonly treated addiction at our clinic in Gorzów Wielkopolski. Patients present at various stages of the disease - from those drinking problematically, through those on an alcohol binge, to Patients with many years of addiction.

Stages of alcohol addiction treatment

• Alcohol detox - safe cleansing of the body from alcohol toxins under the supervision of medical staff. The procedure lasts from 3 to 12 hours depending on the Patient's condition
• Pharmacological protection - the Esperal implant or oral Anticol treatment supports abstinence maintenance for a period of 8 to 12 months
• Addiction psychotherapy - working on the causes of reaching for alcohol, learning to cope with stress and emotions, rebuilding relationships
• Follow-up visits - regular meetings with medical staff help monitor progress and prevent relapses

Alcohol treatment in Gorzów Wielkopolski is a process that requires time and commitment, but offers real chances for lasting change. Nasz Gabinet supports the Patient at every stage of this journey.

Addiction to psychoactive substances - amphetamine, methamphetamine, cocaine, marijuana, opioids or designer drugs - requires a different approach than alcohol treatment. At Nasz Gabinet Gorzów Wielkopolski, the medical staff selects treatment methods according to the type of substance, duration of addiction and the Patient's health condition.

Specifics of drug addiction treatment in Gorzów Wielkopolski

• Drug detox - drug detoxification is the first step. The procedure involves intravenous administration of drips with medications alleviating withdrawal symptoms, electrolytes and vitamins
• Pharmacotherapy - depending on the addictive substance, the medical staff may introduce mood-stabilising medications, drugs reducing drug cravings or alleviating sleep disorders
• Psychotherapy - a key element of drug addiction treatment. It helps understand the mechanisms of reaching for drugs and develop alternative ways of coping with difficulties

Drug addiction treatment in Gorzów Wielkopolski at our clinic is available on an outpatient basis - the Patient does not need to stay in an inpatient facility, allowing them to continue education or employment.

It is not only chemical substances that are addictive. An increasing number of people from Gorzów Wielkopolski and the surrounding area present with problems related to behavioural addictions - gambling, internet addiction, computer gaming, shopping or pornography. These addictions have a similar neurobiological mechanism to chemical addictions - they activate the brain's reward system and lead to a growing need to repeat the behaviour.

Treatment of behavioural addictions in Gorzów Wielkopolski

• Diagnosis and severity assessment - the medical staff conducts a detailed interview, assesses the impact of the addiction on daily functioning, relationships and the Patient's finances
• Cognitive-behavioural psychotherapy - helps recognise situations that trigger compulsive behaviours and learn healthy alternatives
• Supportive pharmacotherapy - in some cases, medications help stabilise mood and reduce impulsivity
• Family involvement - behavioural addictions often lead to relationship crises, so involving family members in therapy increases the chances of lasting change

At Nasz Gabinet Gorzów Wielkopolski, treatment of behavioural addictions is carried out by therapists experienced in working with this type of addiction. The first step is a diagnostic consultation - book by phone or through online registration.

Detox is a medical procedure involving intravenous administration of drips with fluids, electrolytes, vitamins and medications - always individually tailored to the Patient's health condition. The aim is safe cleansing of the body from toxins, restoring fluid-electrolyte balance and alleviating withdrawal symptoms.

Alcohol detox in Gorzów Wielkopolski

Alcohol detoxification at our clinic at ul. Sikorskiego 107 is available in three time variants: 3h (hangover drip), 6h (breaking a short binge) and up to 12h (multi-day alcohol binge). Price: from 700 PLN. Throughout the procedure, the Patient remains under the care of medical staff who monitor vital parameters.

Drug detox in Gorzów Wielkopolski

Drug detoxification is tailored to the type of addictive substance. The drip composition, medication doses and procedure duration are determined by the medical staff after an initial health assessment.

Detox is the first, but not the only stage of treatment. After detoxification, the medical staff discusses the next steps with the Patient - psychotherapy, pharmacological protection or a combination of both methods.

Pharmacotherapy is one of the pillars of addiction treatment in Gorzów Wielkopolski. Medications used in addiction therapy help maintain abstinence, reduce substance cravings and stabilise the Patient's mental state. All decisions regarding pharmacotherapy are made by the medical staff after a detailed health assessment.

Esperal alcohol implant

Esperal is a subcutaneous implant containing disulfiram - a substance that blocks alcohol metabolism in the liver. After consuming alcohol, a Patient with the implant experiences severe, unpleasant symptoms (nausea, vomiting, rapid heartbeat), which effectively discourages reaching for alcohol. The implant works for 8-12 months - during this time, the Patient can use it for psychotherapy and building new habits.

Oral Anticol treatment

An alternative to the implant is a nine-month oral treatment with Anticol, which also contains disulfiram. It requires daily tablet intake but is less invasive and available from 299 PLN.

Other supportive medications

Depending on the Patient's needs, the medical staff may introduce medications that reduce alcohol cravings, stabilise mood, support sleep or alleviate anxiety symptoms. Pharmacotherapy is always part of a broader treatment plan - it does not replace psychotherapy on its own.

Detox and pharmacotherapy stabilise the body, but lasting change requires working on the causes of addiction. Addiction psychotherapy in Gorzów Wielkopolski at Nasz Gabinet is a space where the Patient learns to understand their emotions, recognise situations that trigger relapses and build a life in sobriety.

Forms of therapy available in Gorzów Wielkopolski

• Individual therapy - one-on-one sessions with an addiction therapist. Allows for deep work on personal traumas, thought patterns and emotions that maintain the addiction
• Group therapy - sessions with other people in the recovery process. Provides a sense of community, teaches communication and shows that change is possible
• Motivational therapy - helps strengthen internal motivation for treatment, especially at the beginning of the therapeutic process

Psychotherapy at Nasz Gabinet Gorzów Wielkopolski is conducted by therapists with certifications in addiction treatment. Session times are adapted to the Patient's schedule - we provide outpatient treatment, so visits can be combined with work and family life.

Every addiction is different - different substances, different duration of addiction, different health condition, different family and professional situation. That is why at Nasz Gabinet Gorzów Wielkopolski we do not apply a single treatment scheme for everyone. The medical staff develops an individual therapeutic plan after the medical qualification and a detailed interview.

What the individual treatment plan considers

• Type and severity of addiction - treatment looks different for a person with a few months of alcohol problems than for someone with years of opioid addiction
• Physical health condition - co-existing conditions (liver, heart, diabetes) affect the choice of methods and medications
• Mental health condition - depression, anxiety disorders, PTSD or other disorders often co-occur with addiction and require parallel treatment
• Life situation - work, family, support from loved ones, previous treatment attempts
• Patient's motivation and expectations - the plan must be realistic and accepted by the Patient

The treatment plan is not a fixed document - the medical staff in Gorzów Wielkopolski modifies it during therapy, adapting to the Patient's progress and changing needs.

Addiction is a disease that affects not only the addicted person but the entire family. Loved ones often experience helplessness, anger, shame and guilt. At Nasz Gabinet Gorzów Wielkopolski, we also offer support for families and partners of addicted individuals.

How we help families in Gorzów Wielkopolski

• Education about addiction mechanisms - we help understand what addiction is as a disease, why the loved one behaves in a certain way, and what is effective versus what makes the situation worse
• Learning healthy boundaries - we help the family stop protecting the addicted person from the consequences of the addiction (co-dependency) and start taking care of their own mental health
• Family consultations - sessions with a therapist where the family and the Patient learn constructive communication
• Help with motivating towards treatment - if a loved one does not want to seek treatment, we advise on how to talk and what steps to take

A family that understands addiction and can respond appropriately is one of the most important factors increasing the chances of the Patient's lasting recovery.

For many people, the fear of stigmatisation is one of the main barriers to seeking treatment. Patients worry that someone in their circle will find out about their problem. At Nasz Gabinet Gorzów Wielkopolski, we guarantee full discretion at every stage of treatment.

How we ensure confidentiality in Gorzów Wielkopolski

• Private medical facility - a visit to our clinic is not registered in any public system. The employer, insurer or National Health Fund have no access to treatment information
• Discreet location - the clinic at ul. Sikorskiego 107 in Gorzów Wielkopolski is a multi-purpose building housing various facilities - a visit does not raise suspicion
• Personal data protection - all Patient data is protected in accordance with GDPR. Only the medical staff conducting the treatment has access to medical records
• Communication on the Patient's terms - we contact Patients only in the manner and at the times agreed upon with them

Fear of disclosing addiction problems is understandable, but it should not prevent seeking treatment. At our clinic in Gorzów Wielkopolski, we do everything to ensure the recovery process takes place in an atmosphere of safety and respect.

Chronic abuse of alcohol and drugs leads to severe deficiencies of vitamins, minerals and amino acids. The liver, nervous system and immune system need intensive support to return to normal functioning. That is why at Nasz Gabinet Gorzów Wielkopolski we offer vitamin drips as a complementary element of addiction treatment.

Why intravenous drips rather than tablets

With intravenous administration, the body absorbs almost 100% of active ingredients - from tablets, significantly less is absorbed, especially in people with damaged gastrointestinal mucosa (which is common with long-term alcohol abuse). Vitamin infusions allow rapid replenishment of deficiencies in thiamine (B1), magnesium, zinc, folic acid and vitamin C.

Vitamin drips beyond addiction therapy

Vitamin infusions in Gorzów Wielkopolski are also available for people who are not undergoing addiction treatment - they help with recovery after infections, chronic fatigue, stress, intensive physical exercise or deficiencies resulting from restrictive diets. Every infusion is preceded by a medical qualification.
