Relapse Prevention Planning

Sustained recovery efforts require structured planning beyond initial treatment participation. Relapse Prevention Planning at Holistic Pathways is integrated into programming to address risk patterns and behavioral triggers. Participants work within guided sessions to review prior experiences and identify circumstances associated with recurrence. Structured discussion supports the development of practical response strategies. Planning is documented to provide a reference framework for continued application.

Implementation follows a coordinated process that aligns with overall treatment planning. Through our Relapse Prevention Planning services in Antioch, California, clinicians facilitate structured exercises and maintain written documentation of identified strategies. Participants review and refine their plans as treatment progresses. Observations from therapy sessions inform updates to planning documents. This structured approach supports continuity between active treatment and ongoing recovery efforts.

Documented Risk Assessment and Strategy Development

Sessions include a guided review of past patterns and identification of potential risk factors. Plans are recorded to provide a clear reference for continued application. Revisions are made based on observed progress and clinical input.
