Individual Cognitive Behavioral Treatment: Participants attend individual meetings with case managers to discuss violations and status, update their treatment plan if necessary and learn cognitive behavioral skills in the form of short, practical exercises.

Group Cognitive Behavioral Treatment: These CBT group sessions incorporate the same principles of the individual meetings but are designed to take advantage of peer support and experiences in a group setting.

Motivational Interviewing: A cognitive-behavioral strategy initially developed to work with substance users, this communication style avoids confrontation and arguing, instead using open-ended questions, affirmations and reflective listening.

Moral Reconation Therapy^®: This systematic form of cognitive behavioral treatment features curricula and interpersonal exercises designed to increase moral reasoning, adjust antisocial thought processes, and teach decision-making skills.

Transition Celebrations: Several times annually, our programs organize “graduations” that bring together program participants, family, and others to mark a major milestone: program completion.

Substance Use Counseling: GEO Reentry staff work with individuals in the program to overcome their substance use issues through group sessions and counseling.

Alcohol and Drug Treatment Services: Our substance use treatment starts with the development of an individualized treatment plan, followed by the participant’s immersion in a cognitive behavioral curriculum designed to promote life balance, teach anger management, explore motivation for change and encourage the foundations of interpersonal relationships.

Relapse Prevention and Aftercare: Participants learn to identify early warning signs and learn how to utilize pro-social decision-making to lower the risk of relapse. Case managers work with individuals throughout the aftercare process to maintain accountability in recovery.
