The Wise Family is offering an ongoing, co-ed group focused on supporting teens 14-17 struggling with the challenges that substance use and associated mental health symptoms cause. This group is a harm reduction group focused on reducing reliance on substances, learning about mental health, and inner resource management/coping skill development.
Teens must be able to commit to safety, not exhibit substance use behaviors that would result in hospitalization, not require inpatient rehabilitation, or currently be on probation. Sobriety is not a requirement of group admission, but if a group member is suspected of being under the influence at the time of the meeting, they will not be permitted to participate that day.
Members will receive group therapy as well as extended family support as appropriate.
