Relapse Prevention

Healics Recovery follow the Red flag to Relapse (Terence T. Gorski). Each resident will have their own “red flags” and be able to identify how they are doing? Each person’s experience will be different, so Relapse Prevention work explores the unique triggers and challenges them with different strategies to overcome them. These strategies scaffolds the individuals own strengths and resources so they can identify behaviours that could harm their recovery.
