Sexual Addiction Groups
Tuesday Evening from 6:00-7:00.
This group is for clients who have completed primary treatment. Clients work on continuing recovery. We use the book "The Recovery Zone" by Dr. Patrick Carnes as our guide. We continue the process of going through the 30 step model.
Wednesday Evening from 7:-8:30.
This is for clients who have not had treatment before. Clients use the workbook "Facing the Shadows" by Dr. Patrick Carnes. Clients work on early recovery skills, building a base of support, family issues, and family of origin/trauma issues. Clients are asked to make a 6 month commitment.
