+ The BALM® Family Recovery Program

Do you know any families who are at their wits’ ends over their loved one’s drinking or using?We are here to help you help them!

Who we serve:

The families of people with Substance Use Disorder (SUD) and other Use Disorders individually or through the treatment professionals working with them and/or their loved ones.

What We do:

We provide the one-year BALM® Family Recovery Education program using the Be A Loving Mirror (BALM®) Method of Family Recovery. This Powerful Educational Program includes instruction and practice in the Be A Loving Mirror method which increases the family member’s inner peace and allows for improved communication that often leads a loved one to choose recovery.

Why Families:

The research shows that when the family gets help, the struggling loved one has a much greater chance of attaining and maintaining recovery. Yet, many families stay in denial and keep enabling, becoming a thorn in the side of their loved one’s recovery professionals rather than the true partners and advocates they could be.

Family Recovery Resources, LLC, (FRR) whose mission is to help ALL families blaze the trail to recovery in their homes, aims to reverse this trend.

We welcome the opportunity to educate families, so they can become true partners in helping the treatment center turn the tide from chaos to recovery in their family.

Families who go through our program often find themselves able to get their own lives back, able to contribute consistently to their loved one’s recovery, able to powerfully partner with their loved one’s treatment providers, thus serving as true advocates of their loved one’s recovery.

The BALM® method teaches families how to engage their loved ones in evidence based brief interventions that can encourage loved ones to enter and commit to recovery more quickly. Long term changed family behavior can also help a loved one avert or shorten slips and relapses.
