SMART Recovery
The SMART Recovery ® program is an alternative to A.A. ® or other 12 Step meetings. S.M.A.R.T, which is acronym for Self Management and Recovery Training, is a completely separate entity with no inclusion of a higher power. It is also based on psychological methods. There are no specific meetings based on certain drugs. SMART recovery is completely inclusive to every individual struggling with alcohol, drug, or other addictions.
How SMART Recovery differs is in its approach is that addiction is a mental struggle that a person can overcome by resisting temptation. It uses Rational Emotive Behavioural Therapy (REBT), to help individuals comprehend why they use and how their self-destructive thoughts are hampering their recovery. The definitive goal is to change those thoughts.
SMART Recovery 4-Point Program

How We Can Help
We introduce our clients to SMART Recovery and various other self help modules to find something that works for them. Our team of experienced counsellors work with clients daily to guide and support them as they go through every phase of their recovery. We offer a home like environment to encourage growth and comfort while learning. Our program helps individuals identify triggers, work through grief and trauma, manage their impulses and emotions, improve self-esteem, and open the door to rebuilding relationships. Having a low staff to client ratio, we provide very substantial 1 on 1 time with our therapists, which we feel is necessary for a successful recovery. Lastly, our doors are always open to alumni to ensure a means for clients to stay connected to their recovery after completing their residential treatment. Think our program might be a good fit?
