SMART Recovery

Abstinence Based Approaches

Abstinence Based Approaches

The ASCENT Approach honors that addiction treatment cannot be one-size-fits-all. Further, it recognizes the need for both partners in a relationship to do the work.

The ASCENT Approach

Our first objective is to determine whether a patient can be a social or recreational user.

Rarely have any of us seen it work to simply tell someone to stop drinking. Instead we begin where you are and select and approach that is appropriate for you.

  • We support abstinence for clients who need or want to be abstinent.
  • We are also aware that many of our clients are not ready to be abstinent.

Valuing Diversity in Our Approaches to Treatment

We understand that no one treatment, approach, or therapy for addictive-like behaviors and mental health issues will work for everyone.
