Orange County - Family Support Group - The Gateway Institute - April 9, 2016
2016-04-09 11:00 - 13:00 | The Gateway Institute, 950 South Coast Dr., Suite 220, Costa Mesa , CA, 92626, United States
At The Gateway Institute, we believe the inclusion of family members in the treatment process is imperative. Families are often on the outside looking in, with few strategies and tools at their disposal to help their loved one. To ensure optimal growth and healing, families need to learn how to respond to the OCD sufferer in a healthy and productive manner. We feel that it is necessary to provide families with their own support group so they have the ability to learn and talk amongst each other for further support and guidance. The family support group is held the second Saturday of each month, so please join us.
