COURAGE TO CHANGE RANCHES

Family Relationship Repair

Every Sunday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. is Guest Time at the Courage to Change Ranch. Residents may invite family and friends to join them for quiet walks and talks, and sometimes, unbridled fun.

Most of our residents have children, and occasionally we can arrange an "overnight" for one or more of the young ones. Once in the outside world, the "family" can become a major support in recovery.

We offer family members Conjoint Family Therapy. During the ravages of addiction, the family of the addict has had to make severe accommodations to the disease. Not infrequently, sheer self-preservation has forced family members to cut ties.

Now, the addict is recovering. All well and good - but what about the spouse or parent who is still locked into the adjustments which the disease process demanded?

Conjoint Family Therapy goes beyond just the addict her/himself to help family members find health and happiness in the Recovery process.
