Codependency Class
Codependency is something many of those in recovery can identify with. Codependent behaviors lead to unhealthy attachment styles, poor boundaries, and a central focus on other's problems or desires, rather than one's own. Codependent traits typically stem from learned familial behaviors, childhood trauma, and low self-esteem. Unless these behaviors are identified and restructured in healthy ways, they can continue within any relationship.
At Footprints, we take an interactive approach by helping residents to identify the traits they developed within their past and teach them how to develop healthy boundaries and relationships moving forward in their recovery.
Relapse Prevention Class
Every resident at Footprints is required to do a Relapse Prevention Class with other residents in the program. The class encompasses working through an eight module workbook with various exercises that take a cognitive-behavioral approach to restructure the way we think when we are on the verge of a relapse. Staff will take you through this workbook and you will identify risks and causes of relapse, how to handle when cravings and urges arise, and how to handle this situations with new skills. Relapse is a part of many of our stories, but we hope that by working through this curriculum with other residents and supportive staff, that relapse can be minimized for those within our recovery community.
