Family counseling is an essential component of the treatment process. Family involvement has been shown to not only have a positive effect on the participant’s wellbeing, but also leads to greater emotional intimacy within the family. KLEAN’s family program helps members understand addiction and dependency issues and how to best support their loved one in recovery.
As part of the therapeutic process, participants at KLEAN learn that their pathological adult behavior can be symptomatic of earlier life experiences—experiences that have played a significant role in their addiction and dependency issues.
At KLEAN, we believe that families play a powerful role in addressing and resolving the participant’s early-life traumatic experiences. Changing years of a family system takes the participation of the entire family. Getting everyone to understand the language of recovery can provide a better understanding of addiction and related disorders. The program is designed to provide education for family members, helping them learn how to relate to their loved ones in supportive and productive ways.
The KLEAN Family Program is designed to bring awareness, understanding, and behavioral changes to clients, families, and significant others. Through group process, psycho education, and specifically selected Al-Anon panels, you and your family will learn valuable communication techniques that can help you build a healthier family system. KLEAN offers a bi-weekly family group, with alternating concentrations, and family therapy sessions as needed. Our goal is to provide the education you need to help put your family back together.
Our Family Program is open to family members and loved ones of current participants, as well as alumni.

Family Therapy
Family therapy takes place on an individual basis. Our therapists and treatment team collaborate with each client to create goals for family and relationship work. Based on these goals, the therapist works with family members to solicit their involvement and articipation.
Therapy sessions may take place in-person or by phone to explore family dynamics, determine potential goals related to family functioning, and promote family healing. These sessions are set up by the primary therapist according the needs of the individual participantand their specific treatment goal.
