We are all sensory beings bombarded with input coming in from the environment through our senses. This sensory input can be challenging for persons with mental illness and persons recovering from drug/alcohol addiction. Breakthrough’s state-of-the-art multi-sensory room offers a patient-centered haven of comfort. Multi-sensory rooms provide opportunities for client-centered exploration of the senses helping the person to feel empowered and better regulated through interactions with the therapist.
This specifically designed sensory room provides a powerful tool for use in substance abuse rehabilitation as it provides opportunities for addressing triggers, stress management, and self-regulation allowing clients to focus on overcoming barriers to community re-entry. It also provides a deeply supportive environment to assist in acquiring, learning, and implementing mindfulness-based approaches to life and recovery.
The program is facilitated in our multi-sensory room by the LifeSkills11™ Occupational Therapist. The therapist is uniquely trained to recognize the effect that the substance abuse/mental health challenges has had on the occupational functioning of the individual and the family. The focus of therapy is to attain improved functional performance in the client’s meaningful occupations including life roles, leisure, work, and social environment. The LifeSkills11 ™ program knows that clients can thrive using these improved self-regulation and life skills. Clients will find that they can change their behavior on their own terms and in their own way – empowered to enjoy a more rewarding life living substance free.
Our program is designed to work alongside and enhance the existing cognitive behavioral work of your treatment center.
