Self Management and Recovery Training (SMART)

SMART Recovery is an evidenced-informed recovery method grounded in Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), that supports people with substance dependencies or problem behaviors to:

1.Build and maintain motivation
2.Cope with urges and cravings
3.Manage thoughts, feelings and behaviors
4.Live a balanced life

SMART meetings encourage individuals to take responsibility for their own choices and behaviors and do not ask anyone to admit powerlessness nor rely on a higher power. Crosstalk and open conversation are encouraged, as we learn and grow from the support of our recovery community.
