Open Door Recovery Center's first 12-week relapse-prevention program will begin October 18 with an open registration so that men and women can join at any point in the program's cycle.
Our relapse-prevention program will be led by Next Step Recovery's Kathy Ronemus, who is a licensed professional counselor and addictions specialist.
Program sessions will be held on Monday and Wednesday nights from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Open Door Recovery Center located in the Executive Park building, Suite 114, on the corner of Charlotte and College Streets in downtown Asheville.
The two-hour classes will include education about the disease of addiction and the process of recovery. The second hour of each class will be devoted to group processing and integrating and applying recovery tools in everyday life.
In between sessions, program participants will work with the Johnson Institute's
Commitment to Sobriety: A Relapse Prevention Guide for Adults in Recovery.
After completing the program, participants will have a better understanding of the neurobiology of addiction, stages of recovery, how to avoid relapse triggers, healthy coping and communication strategies, and how to heal emotional trauma to support a vibrant, substance-free life.
Participants will also develop an individual relapse-prevention plan during the course of this program.
The cost for this program is $200 per week with a 12-week commitment.
