About The Life Link

Breaking the cycle of chronic homelessness, mental illness, trauma, exploitation, and addiction can be incredibly challenging. Life Link in Santa Fe, New Mexico provides a comprehensive range of outpatient services. Regardless of where you are in your recovery journey, I like that these services can be tailored to support you in your pursuit of drug or alcohol sobriety.

A Nurturing Educational Environment

When you enroll in an outpatient treatment program, you can expect to be immersed in an environment that is designed to be nurturing, positive and educational. Life Link has partnered with the University of New Mexico to ensure you receive cutting-edge science-based addiction treatment.

You’ll have a safe space to learn to adopt and accept a healthier lifestyle with the assistance of a counseling team that cares for you. The center will provide you with respect and compassion because it recognizes the courage it takes to enter recovery.

You may also find it helpful that the treatment programs are offered in English and Spanish and that you can choose between group, individual and family counseling settings. These sessions will incorporate evidence-based models such as the Community Reinforcement Approach and Motivational Interviewing, both of which are recognized for their effectiveness in addiction recovery.

Community Reinforcement Approach and Family Training

The CRAFT program is designed to be an empirically-based, non-confrontational intervention service for families. This service might be beneficial if you’re a concerned spouse, sibling, friend or family member who cares for someone in active addiction. This program is also known to be effective at helping treatment-resistant substance abuse conditions.

Should you enroll in the CRAFT program, you will work with personnel who will help you motivate the person you care about to receive treatment. CRAFT can also provide you with valuable skills for better self-care and problem-solving, so that you know how to help your loved one. In between your treatment, I noticed you can relax at nearby local parks such as Ashbaugh Park or General Franklin E Miles Park.
