WHAT IS YOUR IDEA OF SUCCESS?

Join us for the first time offering of this course!

Often, I hear: “Treatment doesn’t work” or “I tried therapy and it was a waste of time and money.” But are those statements true? Self -help books and New Year’s resolutions — how do they compare? I am also asked regularly what is success or what is the success rate of a particular program? My answer is always a question, “WHAT IS YOUR IDEA OF SUCCESS”?

• Medication treatment
• “California Sober”
• Moderation management
• Harm reduction
• Total abstinence

What do they all mean? What are the facts? And just what does “work” mean?
