Group Therapy
Small, trust-built groups where you finally hear people say the words you've been afraid to say out loud. Confidential, led by licensed counselors, and often the fastest path forward.
Addiction isolates people, and group work brings them back into a room with others.
Many clients come to group after individual counseling has taken them as far as it can on its own. Others come after a relapse, or after finishing a PHP or IOP and wanting to keep the momentum. Some arrive from a 12-step path that isn't resonating. Whatever the route in, the need underneath it is usually the same: a safe place to be honest with people who get it.
Research on group therapy is pretty consistent. Group work often moves clients forward faster than individual therapy alone. Paired together, the combination tends to outperform either one by itself. Part of the reason is that people keep quiet about what they're ashamed of, and hearing someone else tell a story like yours makes it easier to start talking about your own.
Our groups are strictly confidential, small, and led by licensed counselors with long careers in addiction and family work. Nothing said in the room leaves it.
Each group is built for a specific moment in recovery.
You don't have to guess which group fits. We'll talk it through on a consult call and pick the one that matches where you actually are.
Women's Therapy Group
A small group of women working on codependency, substance use, relationships, boundaries, self-worth, and the family patterns that shaped all of it. Generally capped at eight women so the work stays deep.
Men's Therapy Group
A space men rarely get: a room where honesty is welcome and expected. Addictions of all kinds, shame, relationships, fatherhood, boundaries, and what it means to show up, in a group generally capped at eight men.
Relapse Prevention
For men and women in recovery with at least 30 days sober. Builds practical strategies for staying grounded, navigating triggers, and designing a life that supports long-term recovery.
PHP/IOP Aftercare
Ongoing support for graduates of our PHP or IOP. You keep meeting with the same community that carried you through the program and keep doing the work after the program ends.
Family Group
For family members whose loved one is in our PHP or IOP. Meets weekly. A room for the questions, exhaustion, and anger families rarely get to name out loud.
Collaborative Care
We work closely with your current therapist if you already have one. Our clinicians communicate with outside providers so care stays coordinated, not fragmented.
The quiet reason most people show up.
Almost everyone who walks into a group for the first time feels nervous. Almost everyone who stays says they wish they'd come sooner. Group is a good fit if any of these sound familiar:
- Individual therapy has helped but you've hit a plateau
- A relapse or rough stretch has you wanting more accountability than weekly sessions
- You've just finished a PHP or IOP and need to keep the work going
- 12-step meetings aren't clicking for you, or they're not going as deep as you'd like
- You feel alone in your story and want a room of people who understand it
- You want to grow faster, and you're willing to sit in a room with honesty to get there

Group sits comfortably alongside individual counseling, coaching, and our structured programs.
Intensive Outpatient (IOP)
If you need more than a single weekly group, IOP is three sessions a week over six to eight weeks.

Our most intensive outpatient option. Five days a week, five hours a day. Group work is central to the program.
Learn about PHPStandard Outpatient (SOP)
One session a week, built around your real life. The long, steady work that holds the gains made earlier in care.

Small by design. Our women's and men's groups are generally capped at eight people. That size protects the depth of the work and keeps the room feeling safe for what actually needs to be said.
Yes. Confidentiality is the foundation of group work. Every group starts with a clear agreement about what's shared inside the room stays there, and that expectation is reinforced every session.
Not always. Many clients do group alongside individual counseling, and the combination moves faster than either one alone. But group can also stand on its own, especially for people in stable recovery looking for community and maintenance.
Most people haven't. Your counselor will walk you through what to expect before you ever sit in a circle. You're never asked to share more than you're ready to, and it's fine to spend your first sessions listening.
Research supports it. Sharing a room with people who understand reduces shame, which is often the thing keeping a person stuck. Many clients describe group as the place they finally felt seen.
Yes. Our family group is for family members whose loved one is in PHP or IOP. It meets weekly and focuses on how addiction affects the household, codependency patterns, and how to support a person in recovery without losing yourself.
