Groups
Online Harm Reduction Group
If previous attempts at stopping substance use have failed or if you want to learn to manage your use rather than abstain, this is the group for you. We approach addiction as a biopsychosocial phenomenon and help our patients understand the biological, emotional, and behavioral factors underlying their drug use using evidence-based interventions such as motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness, and insight-oriented therapies. Power Over Addiction: A Harm Reduction Workbook for Changing Your Relationship with Drugs will be the curriculum for this group. $200 intake (sliding scale available); $75 per group session
