The Goals of our Family Program:
- To educate families about addiction and how
it affects relationships
- To empower family members to take care of themselves,
and initiate their own recovery process.
- To teach family members how to support their
loved ones in truly helpful ways as they continue
in recovery
Family Program Begins By:
- Providing a much broader understanding of this “disease” and
its impact.
- Understanding our approach to treatment
as a road to recovery
- Looking at family roles that enable dysfunction
and other self-defeating patterns of behavior.
- Rebuilding relationships and developing new
attitudes and directions
The entire family is severely affected by addiction,
harmful dependencies and related
mental health disorders. Beyond the obvious physical and financial
harm, individuals and their families suffer from
emotional and mental distress. More often than
not, families do not know how to deal with the
disease and unwittingly contribute to progressive
dysfunction.
Recovery and healing are most effective when all
members of the family are involved in the recovery
process. Through their involvement, family
members begin to understand the dynamics of the disease
and its treatment.
Patient behaviors change after treatment and this
new behavior affects their families. When families
learn how to be properly supportive of recovering
individuals, they can ease their own suffering
and promote total family healing.
The four day Family Program includes lectures,
films, multi-family sessions and equine-assisted
therapy. Daily sessions start at 9:00 AM and
end at the close of the day.
