Family Program
Healing Our Legacy
As adults, we find that some of our ways of being and coping have developed from our family of origin. This family, as well as the one we may have started as adults, can be thought of as a connected group of individuals who share a common history and attachment to one another. Our individual beliefs can be seen as either embracing or rejecting the prevailing lifestyles which were exposed in our families of origin.
The Alta Mira Family Program is dedicated to the healing of family relationships in the context of individual responsibility. The work done here provides an examination of the characteristics of our families with a particular eye toward each individual's role and responsibility in the family system. Change and healing in families requires looking at each of ourselves, our individual contributions and roles, and telling our truth from a position of authenticity and self-respect.
The Process
Cleints invite specific family members to come to the Family Program. Clients are encouraged to extend the invitation without expectation of a particular response and without taking personal responsibility for the impact upon those invited.
We come together for two and a half days, over a weekend, and establish a safe and trusting environment in which we can discover and express ourselves.
Family members will:
- Learn about roles and patterns in families where addiction is present
- Share individual experiences of growing up in the family
- Observing similarities and differences
- Exploring recovery, family and group dynamics, and the successful and destructive ways we cope
- Develop skills and tools to being their own healing process
- Work to break down the barriers that separate us from the deeper family connections we have lost or longed for
At the conclusion of the Family Program, each participant (client, family member and staff person) will have a new clarity and appreciation for our authentic selves and for one another.
