Group Therapy

At Day One, clients are assigned to group therapy because we know it leads to the best possible outcomes. Group therapy is another space for you to discuss concerns and learn skills that can help improve your situation. Your therapist will let you know which groups are best for you at each stage of your treatment.

We currently offer the following therapy groups:

Perspectives

Mondays 5:30–7:00pm

This group is focused on thoughts, feelings and actions. It will help you understand how to explore your thoughts and make changes to unhelpful thoughts.

 

Exploration

Tuesdays 5:30–7:00pm

An education-based group that is helpful for clients at the beginning stages of recovery to learn more about substances and how they affect the body and mind.

 

Women’s Empowerment

Tuesdays 5:30–7:00pm

This is a group for women that explores mental health themes.  It is focused on support and includes topics like self-esteem and managing trauma.

 

Journey

Wednesdays 5:30–7:00pm

This is a group for those further along in their recovery journey who are wanting to maintain change. It focuses on processing our recovery and doing so with others who are also engaged in recovery.

 

Daytime Recovery

Thursdays 10:00–11:30am

Evening Recovery

Thursdays 5:30–7:00pm

This group is for those who are in various stages of recovery. It includes a mix of educational topics as well as processing topics to help you explore your relationship with substance use.

Why Day One is a leading provider of behavioral health services:

  • Day One has three locations throughout Oakland County and offers both in-person and virtual appointments, so you can see a therapist in office or from the comfort of your home.

  • Masters-prepared therapists with training in both mental health and substance use disorders provide treatment for clients who present with anything from depression to opioid use to a history of trauma. Certified Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor (CAADC) certification is a necessity for staff.

  • At Day One, we understand that you may have been through something traumatic. At the heart of our work is a focus on being trauma-informed — to make all offices and interactions feel safe and comfortable for you.

  • With your permission, we can coordinate with your doctor or other referring professionals, such as parole officers or juvenile drug court officials. In addition, as a Day One client, you, your children, or your family members have access to Oakland Family Services’ continuum of support services beyond your therapy. Outside of the agency, Day One also partners with medication-assisted treatment programs and can help you access community supports and resources, like Alcoholics Anonymous, housing, food, job assistance and more. In addition, our Pontiac location houses a medical clinic, providing quick access if you are having other health issues. 

  • Day One meets you where you are, providing you with a personalized treatment plan. Whether you need short-term help or long-term support, we can assist.

  • Day One accepts most commercial insurance plans, Medicare, and most Medicaid and Healthy MI plans. A sliding fee scale is available for those who may not have health insurance.
