Nexus Recovery Group (Adults; another for teens)
Nexus Recovery is a psychoeducational and therapeutic group designed for those navigating substance use recovery who need more structure and support than peer-led groups (like AA or SMART Recovery), but who may not require—or have access to—the intensity of inpatient or IOP treatment. It fills a critical gap by offering an accessible, clinically guided space for insight, skill-building, and personal transformation. Nexus Recovery combines evidence-based interventions with experiential, cognitive, and meaning-centered approaches to foster insight, empowerment, and long-term wellness. Participants are referred through clinics, outpatient programs, sober living homes, or by self-referral.
