Stage 3: Into Action
Continued Treatment

During Stage 2, the second six weeks of stay, you will have begun to appreciate that recovery is within your grasp - trust in yourself and others has been nurtured and an appropriate perspective of your own reality will have dawned.

Your self-esteem strengthens as sound boundaries and an acceptable value system begin to emerge.

The objective of Stage 3 is to build on these foundations.

Therapy continues along the same format as in Stage 2, but with increasing emphasis on reality - that of the past and the here and now and how these can be translated into a meaningful and socially acceptable future.

The principal at the core of this is your personal responsibility for your own recovery through self-acceptance.

Relapse prevention

Relapse prevention is emphasised and there are regular one-to-one sessions in which our specialist counsellor targets your early introjections, the baggage carried into addiction.

Whilst it is not possible to take psychotherapy to its full term in the time allowed by the programme, the PCP Method initiates this process to enable identification of areas of personality dysfunction that require on-going attention by you.

This aspect of our work is interfaced with the Twelve Step disease concept and you will be shown how these work in tandem.

The thrust of the programme up to this point has been trust in the self and others, reality, responsibility and acceptance through self-examination with the means to bring these into being.

Their application in practice forms an integral part of this stage of treatment. The first instance of this is in-house: at this stage you will work with new arrivals as a preliminary to the buddy system described at Stage One.

To facilitate progress, PCP has forged links with:

• Government agencies
• Other voluntary agencies and local drug and alcohol services
• Colleges for further education
• Local Businesses
• Job Centres

You will be encouraged to use these contacts for an immediate or eventual return to the workplace in a planned way, specific to their needs and capabilities.

During this time, attendance at evening and weekend Twelve Step fellowship meetings continues and an in-house workshop on Steps Six to Twelve is built into the programme structure.

At the end of Stage Three you will be awarded a formal graduation medallion to commemorate successful completion of the full-time programme.

Before leaving this Stage, the Project investigates whether provision has been made for adequate housing conducive to on-going recovery. If appropriate or necessary, we will make arrangements on your behalf through our contacts with various local authorities, halfway houses and housing associations to ensure the return to a healthy environment wherever possible.

After this Stage, you then progress onto Stage 4 - Aftercare.
