Next Steps Moving Forward
We provide evidence based program materials, and online meetings for people seeking independence from any form of substance use disorders and problematic addictive behaviours. Based on Motivational Interviewing, we offer a positive reinforcement educational program for family members and friends who wish to support their loved ones engaged in mental health and addiction recovery.
It is important that you believe in your ability to change. We meet you where you are in the recovery process. We believe you have the ability to make things change. With realistic goals and observing small successes we build our independence and self-confidence over time.
Change is a process. Reserve your judgment, set aside those questioning beliefs and approach the process of change with an open mind. Life is full of experiments and we can have as many chances as we want. We have the ability and capacity to change our life taking small steps observing small successes.
Self-Empowerment. A self-empowering approach to your recovery involves gaining independence as you reclaim your life. We embrace our humanity and our ability to make the lifestyle changes necessary to align our goals with our values.
Acceptance, encouragement and non-judgment. We are accepted into a community that has empathy, kindness and compassion and provide a safe confidential space for support without judgement.
Engagement We offer tools and techniques to help us regain our personal power. Join us for a meeting and see how we work towards managing our life without substance use disorder and problematic behaviour.
