Women's Program      

At Lasting Recovery, we help individuals who are ready to live a life free of alcohol and drugs reclaim their health, mend their relationships, rebuild self esteem and develop

effective relapse prevention skills.

Day Program

(M,T,TH,F 10am-1pm)

Our Daytime Intensive Outpatient Program for Women provides a confidential, safe environment where women can address issues specific to them (e.g. addictions, relationships, self care, parenting and communication). Treatment, facilitated by Judy Saalinger, author of the book Fearless Change; Embrace the Choice to Reinvent Your Life, includes group discussion, educational materials, video and Power Point visual aids. Group topics and curriculum are the same used in our coed program, and includes Fearless Change.

Premium Care Program

Lasting Recovery's Premium Care Program for Women includes admission to our day or evening outpatient treatment plus residence in a beautiful, safe and confidential sober living home in Solana Beach. Transportation to our treatment facility is available (please see our Sober Living page).

Assessment

Lasting Recovery’s Intensive Outpatient Program begins with a comprehensive assessment that includes:

• Drug and Alcohol Use
• Psychological Assessment
• Family and Social Relationships
• Lifestyle Issues

This thorough assessment allows us to develop a flexible, holistic individual treatment plan that best meets each client’s needs.

Education

Lasting Recovery provides comprehensive drug and alcohol education groups. Our format includes the use of lecture, videotape, group discussion and homework assignments that provide a forum to process a variety of recovery issues. Participants learn to increase their motivation and prevent relapse through curriculum based on current research and cognitive behavioral therapy. In these groups, clients learn the impact substance abuse has had on their brains, their lives and families.

Group topics include:

• Addiction
• Recovery
• Relapse Prevention
• Problem Solving Skills
• Stress Management

Goals:

• Interrupt the self-destructive pattern of alcohol and drug dependency
• Assess, address and begin to correct the harm to health and emotional well being
• Help clients and, where appropriate, their families, understand chemical dependency and relapse
• Assist clients to improve their relationship and communications skills
• Introduce clients and, where appropriate, their families, to 12 step programs as a key to maintaining recovery

Holistic Health

Research in substance abuse treatment shows it is important to address the mind, body, and spirit. A holistic approach to recovery helps individuals learn to heal the whole self - to relieve stress and live life in balance. Our carefully chosen holistic practitioners offer an introduction to acupuncture, massage, yoga and meditation.

12-Step Facilitation

This program is an evidence based protocol that DOUBLES a participant’s chance of long term recovery. In addition to introducing 12 Step Program philosophy into our Adult programs, we encourage our clients to take advantage of this unique individualized program in order to decrease their chance of relapse.

• Individual one-hour sessions that interface with each of the 12 steps
• Background and support to help clients integrate into meetings
• Facilitation by a licensed clinician with personal recovery experience

Fearless Change

Based on Dr. Judy Saalinger’s book Fearless Change-Embrace the Choice to Reinvent Your Life, these groups help clients and their families find hope and a new way of living. Through the changes required by recovery, clients learn to:

• Identify and satisfy the basic needs of recovery
• Make effective choices and respond appropriately to high risk situations
• Manage life changes that occur with long term sobriety
• Adjust to changes in family, work and relationships

      These groups provide our clients with unique tools that make it easier to learn and develop relapse prevention strategies as they progress to long term recovery. Fearless Change is currently presented for women on Mondays 6:30-9:30pm, and separately as part of the Day Treatment for Women.

Family Education

Lasting Recovery's Family Education Program is available to all adult clients and their families while in treatment. Group discussion and education focuses on understanding the impact of chemical use on the individual and their family, learning the effects of healthy communication, and introduction to 12-Step philosophy for the family. Groups are held Saturdays 10am-noon.
