How to Rebuild You Brain Group

I have long believed that as medical science has not been asking what the brain needs in terms of nutrition to function. To better educated the clients of Dynamic Paths, I am excited to announce that I am now offering a group for established clients at Dynamic Paths. This group will focus on providing more information than can be offered in individual sessions. After offering a Wellness Group at A Positive Alternative (www.apositivealternative.com) for the last year, I can see the benefits of individuals learning more about how proteins, sugars and fats affect their energy and mental clarity. With this information, I see that people can better moment to moment decisions on eating because they are better to understand and integrate what their body and emotions are telling them.

I am so committed to people getting this information that if you attend six of the ten sessions offered. I will offer you a free 45 minute individual session.

Addiction Free without AA

• 
  
  Have you been looking for Outpatient Treatment for Alcohol or Drug use that is not based on AA or the 12-steps as the basis of Recovery?
  
  
  
• 
  
  Have you had mixed feelings about seeking treatment, partly because you still are very high functioning in many areas of your life, despite your drinking or use? (The majority of our clients are quite high functioning).
  
  
  
• 
  
  Would you like to be part of a program with small groups (no more than 8) that focuses on skills for not only getting free of addiction, and addresses other psychological issues that are intertwined with drinking/drugs?
  
  
  
• 
  
  Would you prefer a program that focuses on Therapy vs. court orders to treatment because of DUI’s and group members who are just marking time? (We carefully screen our clients in order to have a supportive, positive group experience for everyone.)
  
  A Positive Alternative is a Radically Different Approach to Alcohol & Drug Treatment – the only one of it’s kind in our Region. Here are just a few of the ways We Are Different:
  
  1) All our Therapists are Master’s Level Trained Clinicians with decades of both Addictions AND Mental Health experience.
  2) We believe that Groups need to consist of members who can easily identify with each other. Our Adult Groups are Gender Specific with separate Women’s Outpatient Program and Men’s Outpatient Program. In addition, our College Student’s Program to Prevent Addiction works to change addictive patterns, yet does not insist upon abstinence as a lifelong pattern.
  3) We incorporate the latest research in addiction therapy into our programs, including Motivational Enhancement, Cognitive Therapy, including Coping, Habit Change, Relationship and Self-Care Skills training, Mindfulness Meditation, Nutrition and Physical methods that effect well-being and brain recovery.
