Because addictions and dependencies affect the entire family system, I believe that family involvement in treatment is a vital component for successful recovery.The Family Program at CCS, Inc. - Confidential Counseling Services, Inc. - is designed to create a recovery foundation for both clients and family or significant others. The Family Program aims to expand self-awareness and knowledge of family dynamics, as well as increase communication skills.
Families and their loved one in treatment are given an opportunity to learn about the disease and disorders, discuss issues that have impacted them for many years, and heal together. This is often a life-changing process where confusion, hurt, and misunderstandings can all make sense again.
The Family Program is designed to assist family members in working on their own issues, developing self-care techniques, and learning how to support their loved one.
The Family program motivates family and significant others to embark on their path to recovery.
