    Therapies & Programs

    Family Counseling + Therapy

    When the whole family is involved, healing can be far more successful. Family counseling involves genetic factors to the family of the addict.

    Group Therapy

    Attending group therapy at Southern Peaks RTC in Canon City, Colorado allows those seeking sobriety to realize they are not alone in their battles. This is when a group of people all in different phases of recovery get together and speak about their battles.

These sessions also teach life skills, communication, healthy habits, and can include alternative types of therapy.
