Services
STOP provides consumers with supplementary choices: four (4) pre-vocational groups and a weight management/fitness program have been added to its service repertoire. Pre-vocational groups offered include a computer lab, music group, food service, and barber training. Participation in these groups and the weight management / fitness program is voluntary. Our group opportunities serve to empower consumers, improve their self-esteem, help them maximize their level of self-determination, promote their physical wellness, improve their mood and overall quality of life, help them sustain their sobriety and mental health, build their social skills and learn how to effectively collaborate with others.
STOP's staff are trained in the high quality, evidence-based, effective specialty treatment model, Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT). CBT is a culturally competent, short-term, collaborative, results-oriented treatment model that fosters independence by focusing on restructuring thinking and behavior into more adaptive and self-helpful patterns. It is also a “trauma-specific” therapy model in that practitioners collaborate with trauma survivors to teach them skills to help themselves modulate their powerful emotions.
