Our Extended Care Program is an intensive outpatient program focused on a structured, monitored approach to treatment. This program is beneficial for people who have suffered consequences as a result of their addiction or mental health issues; for example, the loss of relationships, jobs, and opportunities. We help clients rebuild their independence and self-esteem through active participation in therapy and reliance on support from the recovery community.

- In-depth participation in group and psychodrama therapy 3-4 times per week
