Clients participate in evidence-based therapy <strong>focused on sobriety maintenance and development of emotional and communication tools</strong>, including stress management, assertiveness training, and emotional awareness. </p> <p>Clients attend several daily group sessions, along with in-house 12-step meetings and <strong>weekly individual counseling</strong>.
