Youth Explore Recovery

“Healing from wounds both seen and unseen”

This peer-focused recovery group  is  designed  to  assist participants in decreasing or eliminating self-harm, as they define their individual recovery process from this condition

To attend this group, participants are only asked to have some motivation to change parts of this behavior.

Participants will design and develop individualized recovery skills that are unique to self-injurious behaviors.
Participants will practice new recovery skills in 1:1 manner and in a group setting.
 

What is a peer-focused recovery group?
This group is overseen by a trained, qualified, recovery support person; however, the true leaders  of this group are the participants. Individuals who attend this group can expect to have their ideas listened to and can expect to design the topics, activities, and conversations.
 

What it is not:
This group is not a treatment modality; we do not focus on pathology, nor do we treat mental health diagnoses or symptoms.
This group is for participants who are stabilized and may be involved in treatment; however, this group is not to replace or substitute for
treatment.

​

Group Description: (45 minutes)
A qualified recovery support facilitator is provided to secure a safe space for participants as they lead their process. Facilitators support and educate some of the skills, such as self-soothing, relaxation, and continuing long-term recovery skills from self-harm behaviors.  All of our facilitators are experiential and creative in their approach, for example, providing music, creative art, writing, and typically avoid a “talk” type approach.
