chemical dependency or experiencing difficulties with substance abuse. Our program
offers a comprehensive array of services which treat the "whole person." Programming
is however, designed around several major themes which together, form the framework
of our services.
Addiction Education
The intended outcome of this learning track includes:
breakdown of the denial process or other defense mechanisms
recognition of how current problems in living are the result of addiction
understanding family involvement in the addiction process
re-examination of values
identification of personal relapse/recovery pattern
Step Work
No treatment method has had greater success in the treatment of addiction than
the 12-Step approach. Participants of our programs are required to participate in
this highly successful method. Our Step Work learning track provides the
participants with a background of the 12-Steps and assists each in working Steps
1-12.
Corrective Thinking
This learning track is designed to assist participants in identifying how current
thinking has predictable self-destructive results. The intended outcome of this
track is to provide new ways of viewing and responding to life events. Since
thinking precedes behavior, restructuring thoughts can result in positive
behavioral changes.
Relapse Prevention
Since relapse is a recurring part of the recovery process, it is essential to provide
participants with tools which are designed to interrupt the relapse potential.
Relapse prevention focuses on recognizing situations that might stimulate use or
the desire to use. This learning track assists participants in managing those
situations differently and thus, to reduce the opportunities for relapse.
Urinalysis
Every participant of our programming is required to submit to urinalysis and
breathalyzer testing. Such tests are a proven tool in deterring drug/alcohol use
while participating in treatment.
