Free Services - Retreat Behavioral Health Family Support

Family Workshop

CHILDREN POLICY:

The Family workshop can be attended by children 12 and older.

We have accommodated children as young as 10. However, the parents should make the determination based on maturity, level of comprehension and need.

Ultimately, we want to limit the distractions of other families, while still accommodating those families with younger children. In addition, the information is sensitive in nature and can be damaging to young children that cannot comprehend fully.

On-site family sessions with the primary therapist are not limited and can accommodate toddlers & infants.

AVAILABLE WORKSHOPS

Loved Ones Support Group

Due to COVID-19, all support groups will be canceled until further notice. For questions, please call us or e-mail us.

Join us for our weekly Loved Ones Support Group, a private forum for family members and loved ones of individuals struggling with substance abuse or mental health disorders. This free event is open to the community and allows each person to share their experience. Many of our patients’ loved ones have endured stress, trauma, or other painful experiences as a result of the disease of addiction. Our Loved Ones Support Group pairs you with others in similar situations and is moderated by one of our licensed clinical therapists. It’s an invaluable resource for families and friends. No advanced registration required.

*Mondays and Thursdays at our Palm Beach County, FL, Outpatient Facility, 6:00-7:00pm.

*Thursdays at our Lancaster County, PA, Outpatient Facility, 7:30-8:30pm.

Private Counseling Sessions

Understandably, many family members of our patients wish to visit their loved one while they are undergoing their inpatient treatment stay. While we do not allow unscheduled visits, as they can disrupt the smooth flow of the treatment process, we do encourage family members to contact their loved one’s Primary Care Therapist to schedule a private family counseling session, which we offer once during the course of your loved one’s treatment stay. The benefits of this session are impossible to quantify, as is the subject matter you’ll cover. You might discuss better communication at home, comes to terms with a traumatic incident in your family’s past, or make a breakthrough in understanding your loved one’s addiction. The sky’s the limit: It’s just you, your loved one and family, and your counselor, navigating uncharted waters and beginning the healing process together.
