Studies show that individuals are 65 – 70% more likely to remain sober over a 5 – year period with 2 or more forms of continuing care. Whether it be a Recovery Support Group (12 – Step or S.M.A.R.T.), group or individual counselling, or sober living through a safe house, it is vital to one’s future to have a plan after treatment. Think of coming out of a treatment like waking up from a coma and trying to navigate back into a society that has gone on without you. It can be confusing, tricky to navigate, uncontrollable, stressful, triggering, and celebratory. Because of this, studies show that relapse is most common within the first 90 days after treatment so most importantly, you’ll need support.

Recovery Management is the third phase in Thorpe Recovery Centre’s treatment process. Think of Detox like elementary school, Residential Treatment like high school, and Recovery Management like the university. Detox will get you clean, Residential will teach you the basic tools, and Recovery Management will help pull everything together.

Recovery Management Program is a once-a-week peer support processing group – a format that Alumni are familiar with as they continue their recovery journey. The weekly session allows Alumni to have accountability to their peers, relate experiences, warn about relapse signs, and encourage each other’s recovery.

Recovery Management is an affordable safety net in a confusing world, an easy extension of one’s support network with peers, and an investment in one’s future.
