Adolescent Chemical Dependency
Intensive Outpatient Program
|
Ten Broeck Hospital offers a structured Chemical Dependency
Intensive Outpatient Program using a model of recovery called
Recovery Dynamics. Recovery Dynamics is a chemical dependency
treatment program developed by Joe McQuany in 1997 to be used at
Serenity House Treatment Center in Little Rock, Arkansas. The
purpose of this program was not to design a program that would add
to or change the Alcoholics Anonymous method of treatment. The
purpose was to design a program that could enable counselors in
alcohol and addiction treatment centers to have a broader and
deeper understanding of the AA plan of recovery and to be able to
present the program to clients clearly and effectively. Recovery
Dynamics is a method for the counselor to use to present the
program that is described in the textbook of Alcoholics
Anonymous.
