Therapy Groups

Once the educational component is completed, participants become part of a ten-week therapeutic process group that is led by a certified counselor.

The purpose of the process groups is to help participants implement what they learned in the classes and to support their desire to continue to grow in recovery.

These groups meet on Monday and Wednesday evenings at 6:00 pm. and at 9:30 am Tuesdays and Thursdays.
