SMART Recovery

What is SMART Recovery?

SMART Recovery is a free, science-based program that empowers people to overcome addictive and compulsive behaviors while building healthier, more fulfilling lives. Instead of focusing on labels or a fixed identity, SMART emphasizes personal choice, practical skills, and empowerment. Through discussion, tools, and community support, participants learn to manage urges, cope with emotions, and create meaningful change.

Who Can Come?

Everyone is welcome. SMART Recovery is helpful for all types of addictive and compulsive behaviors — including substance use, gambling, eating issues, OCD, and more. Whether you are just beginning your recovery journey, supporting a loved one, or seeking healthier coping strategies, you will find a safe, nonjudgmental space here. There are no labels, requirements, or expectations. If you are looking for support and growth, this group is for you.

What to Expect at a Meeting

Each meeting offers a supportive and encouraging environment where participants can share experiences, learn evidence-based tools, and practice new skills. Together, we work through SMART’s 4-Point Program, focusing on motivation, coping with urges, managing thoughts and emotions, and living a balanced life. You are welcome to participate as much or as little as you feel comfortable — simply showing up is a powerful first step.
