HOW WE HELP FAMILIES

First of all, we tailor our program directly to the person struggling with addiction. Our program provides you with guidance from educated, skilled clinicians and addiction specialists and focuses on treating the family as well as the individual. Research continual shows that individuals whose family is involved in the treatment process have a much higher success rate. Families are welcomed and encouraged to attend a variety of sessions catered just for them:

RECOVERY COMMUNITY:

Secondly, we offer sober living a few blocks away for men and less than two miles away for women. We feel that one of the most important values to the recovery process is “community.” We offer the opportunity to live in a supportive environment, attend treatment, and practice the principles you are learning. All while you continue to work or attend school. This allows you the gift(chance) to begin rebuilding your personal, familial, and professional relationships from day one. Presenting an excellent alternative to inpatient treatment that can last 30-60 days, alienating the individual from their family, and delaying the ability to practice recovery in real life settings.

INTENSIVE OUTPATIENT SESSIONS & MEALS:

Additionally, our intensive outpatient sessions are in the afternoons from 1:00 pm to 4:00 p.m. and in the evenings from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. to allow for flexibility around work and school schedules. Something unique that we offer is a FREE MEAL at every session to reduce the stress associated with rushing to get to group. Sharing a meal with one another is an antiquated event in today’s fast-paced culture, but the value and importance of creating community and culture are unparalleled. By providing dinner, we solve problems and create solutions. Two things we always focus on at Stages of Recovery Intensive Outpatient Program.
