The Ascent Recovery Group
Are you ready to ascend the mountain of recovery? Let's do this together.
This recovery-focused therapy group is for men addressing sex/pornography addiction and unwanted sexual behaviors. The group provides a structured, compassionate space where participants can step out of isolation and connect with others who are also doing the messy work of recovery.
Research and clinical experience are clear—sustainable recovery grows in safe, consistent community. The Ascent Recovery Group offers that support as you take your next steps toward healing and addressing the underlying addictive patterns. Facilitated by ASAT-candidate Andrew Forbeck MA, LPC, SATP and Cody Hummer LMSW, you will have access to the most cutting edge tools to break the cycle of the addictive behaviors and find that 'freedom for' that you have been seeking.
The Details
Practically speaking, therapy group work will save you money in the long run as they are less expensive and allow for more time than the typical therapeutic hour. Also, the Center for Healing has found a gap in it's treatment for clients working through particular issues. We provide individual, couple and family counseling along with workshops such as the My House Workshop for men. A therapy groups meets the space between these two types of treatment.
A trained therapist will bring structure, cohesiveness and direction to the group. A combination of group check ins, diving into personal issues, relating current circumstances to recovery and presentations by the facilitators are just a few of the many interventions brought to the table. Whether you're the one sharing or listening to the other men, the power of the group rests in something or Someone higher than the group itself. Investing in that with motivation will foster freedom and real healing.
We are all for 12 step work through sexaholics anonymous! 'Message us' to help you find the right group for you.
And...the personal touch of a therapy group fills that gap between 12 step work and individual therapy. It will be unique to your situation and more tailored to your personal recovery. It's a separate, yet integrated layer of healing. SA groups will help you break denial, find community and work the proven steps. On top of that, The Ascent Recovery Group will help you with underlying, driving forces of your addiction, foster story work and give you practical tools through the Out of the Shadows Workbook facilitated by the group leaders.
The Ascent Recovery group will meet on the first 3 Mondays of the month from 5-630pm either virtually or in person. The CFH has the technology to provide both and integrate the group either way. We ask you to commit to 3 months of the group work in order to create safety and solid expectations within the group. The group will be capped at 8, thus a small size to tailor treatment to your needs.
The cost of the group is $65 per group session which includes the credit card fee. Your card will be charged for the three sessions at a rate of $195 per month on or around the first Monday of the month. For comparison, typical individual therapy costs around $250-$500 per month.
Upon leaving the group, we ask for a 48 hour notice before the first Monday of the month.
