MATURE ADULTS PROGRAM

At Realization Center, we understand that aging factors such as physical, emotional, social, spiritual and cognitive issues can slow the treatment process for mature adults.

As always, our care is client-driven and participants are given a holistic, or “whole-person” assessment.



 


SERVICES PROVIDED

During treatment, specific addiction issues relating to older adults are addressed in group therapy and individual sessions such as:

  • Loss of Memory Secondary to Addiction
  • Life Transitions
  • Shame and Guilt
  • Loneliness and Isolation
  • Lack of Purpose/Loss of Identity
  • Depression
  • Grief and Loss
  • Relationships
  • Medical Concerns
  • Pain Management
  • Accidental addiction-The Prescription Drug Trap

Our older adults are offered medication-assisted treatment and participation in psycho-education about the disease of addiction-when peers interact and support each other; it becomes easier to remove the stigma and barriers to recovery.

Programs include co-ed and gender-specific groups.
