Addiction doesn’t only affect the addict, but it impacts the entire family. Our Family Program at New Beginnings uses a variety of evidence based theories and approaches for 1 hour every other Saturday immediately after visitation. Â
We have learned through the years that we are not just rehabilitating each client, but habilitating them and that goes for the family as well. If the client goes back to the family and the family hasn’t begun the healing and recovery process then they go back into a compromised situation which could lead them back to addiction and unhealthy behaviors.
Through family counseling and recovery we have witnessed the family unit receive healing, restoration, and transformation. This includes parents, husbands, and children who start to see that they have enabled their destructive behaviors and this is often directly connected to codependency or some level of dysfunction in the family unit.
