    Program Structure

    What a week looks like.

    At the intensive level you meet three times a week for three hours: 9 hours in all. Each session runs as three 45-minute hours with a 15-minute break.

    1

    Check-in.

    Rate your week on the Shalom Pulse, six areas of life plus a separate recovery-risk line, and report on last session’s commitment.

    2

    Recovery learning.

    The brain and addiction, triggers, cravings, lapse and relapse, overdose prevention and medication options.

    3

    The script underneath.

    Core beliefs, shame, attachment, family patterns and identity, built on cognitive behavioral therapy.

    Aftercare: Meets twice a week for two hours: 4 hours in all.

    The Arc of Treatment

    The Road: 8 Movements over 24 weeks.

    Intensive Outpatient · Weeks 1–12

    Uncover · Unlearn · Heal · Become · Sustain · Integrate · Multiply · Initiate.

    Aftercare · Weeks 13–24

    Sustain, Integrate, Multiply and Initiate again, slower, ending with a written plan you read to the group.

    Tangible Takeaways

    What you’ll build.

    You don’t just attend group; you build a personalized, physical body of work that travels with you.

    • A map of your use loop and your recovery loop
    • A map of the core belief underneath
    • A relapse prevention plan, and a weekend safety plan every week
    • A family map, and steps for repair and amends
    • A “Who I Am Becoming Plan” you read to the group, and a one-page Continuing Plan for after aftercare
    You keep your own workbook.

    Our Policy

    If you slip.

    A lapse is part of the work, not the end of it. It brings a same-week review of your plan and more support if you need it. It is not by itself a reason for discharge. Missed sessions can be made up.

    We walk with you through every step of recovery — including the hard days.
