Our PhilosophyAt Catholic Charities, we believe that recovery from addiction requires a comprehensive and holistic approach. Psycho-education, individual, group, and family therapy, and referrals to other community resources are just some of the tools utilized by our multi-cultural, interdisciplinary professionals to ensure that clients receive the care and treatment they require. Experience has shown that attention to the nuances of culture, language, and sexual identity has a positive impact on the treatment and recovery process. Additionally, studies have shown a high correlation and interconnectivity between child abuse and neglect, trauma, mental health, and substance use disorders. Catholic Charities’ clinicians utilize a specialized approach in the assessment of and treatment for all individuals to better determine the interplay of these issues. |

Family and Significant Other Services Family members and significant others play a key role in an individual’s journey to recovery and are encouraged to actively participate in therapy. Counseling services are also available for family members and significant others to help them better understand their loved one’s struggle with addiction and assist them in managing the stressors of the recovery process. |
