Welcome to a 4-week “An Introduction to Addiction & Recovery” group at Cherry Hill Counseling, open to individuals aged 16 and up. Whether you’re currently in recovery, concerned about someone battling addiction, or even questioning whether you might have an addiction, this group is designed with you in mind. Our primary aim is to provide valuable insights and support within a community that understands the complexities of addiction. Over four weeks, we’ll delve into essential topics, such as the Stages of Change model, to help you gain a deeper understanding of where you, a loved one, or someone you know may be on their journey to recovery. We’ll equip you with practical relapse prevention strategies, empowering you to navigate challenging situations with confidence. Building a strong recovery network will be a key focus, as we explore the ‘why’ behind this crucial tool for sustainable change. Additionally, we’ll dive into the science of addiction, offering insights into brain function and Post-Acute Withdrawal Syndrome (PAWS) to provide a comprehensive perspective on the recovery process. Join us for “An Introduction to Addiction & Recovery,” a transformative 4-week journey where you’ll acquire essential tools, concepts, and knowledge to make informed decisions about addiction in your life or the lives of those around you.
