Maryland Addiction Recovery Family Counseling

Maryland Addiction Recovery Center recognizes how crucial it is to engage family members and

significant others in the treatment and recovery process. The importance of examining family systems and

challenging self-deception of family dynamics justifies a strong family program and arrangement of

services.

Family services include groups consisting of just family

members and significant others which will allow members to

share freely with each other and relate to common problems

and solutions.

Family therapy includes families and couples in intimate

relationships with goals to nurture and encourage change

and development. It tends to view change in terms of the

systems of interaction between family members. It

emphasizes family relationships as an important factor in

psychological health. The different schools of family therapy

have in common a belief that, regardless of the origin of the problem and regardless of whether the

clients consider it an “individual” or “family” issue, involving families in solutions is often beneficial for both

the client suffering from drug addiction or substance abuse as well as their family. This type of family

treatment program is meant to benefit the emotional well-being and recovery of both patient and family
