Individual Treatment
Program
After a thorough clinical assessment by a certified member of the Recovery
Resources staff, you will be enrolled in a program suited to your recovery
needs. Our outpatient treatment typically consists of an twelve week
program that includes both didactic and process group sessions as well
as weekly individual sessions. Relapse prevention is constantly reinforced
as you receive treatment for the disease of substance dependency. You
will be taught the nature of the disease and trained to recognize your
individual relapse warning signs. Involvement in 12-step recovery may
enhance your treatment experience.

issues outside the realm of chemical dependency are indicated, referrals
