At New Hope Recovery we have always believed that recovery is more than abstinence from drugs and alcohol. Recovery is about developing a new life style that includes healing in the family, developing new relationships and new activities that promote health and wellness. This recovery lifestly allows the Addict/Alcoholic to experience a life that makes it desirable to remain clean and sober.
We believe effective treatment for addiction must address each area a person's life that is effected by the disease. The components of treatment must form a seamless focus that allows the Addict/Alcoholic to experience a quality of life that promotes a desire to remain clean and sober, and acquire a set of skills to prevent the very real danger of relapse.
As the patient and counselor form a therapeutic alliance they will determine these potential sticking points and arrive at workable plans to address them. There may be legal or financial areas that can’t be ignored, relationships that must be mended or simply self-esteem eroded that must be restored.
