Family

Addiction rarely affects only the individual struggling with dependency. A successful addiction recovery also involves the work of the entire family, not just the chemically-dependent person. 12 Palms Recovery Center offers group counseling for loved ones trying to cope with addictive behavior by a family member, which often leaves loved ones feeling guilty and hopeless as well.

It is a cycle that can be very debilitating, but with our help, broken lives and relationships are frequently restored. While the dependent person goes through the appropriate treatment programs, family members are invited to participate in several of our family care programs.

These programs are designed to educate family members about the disease process of addiction and how they have each been affected. We offer support and the life tools necessary to reconcile current issues facing the family. We acknowledge their pain and offer opportunity for healing. We are the first step in understanding the disease of addiction, providing education and support for family and friends. We are a safe, confidential environment to discuss feelings, concerns, and to ask questions.
