SFAD One to One Family Support Service – Highland
We offer two one to one support services – Telehealth and Holding On.
Our Telehealth service offers one to one support for anyone concerned about a loved one’s alcohol or drug use.
- Usually offers six to eight sessions and each session lasts an hour.
- Once you have completed your block of support, you are then encouraged to join our Telehealth virtual family support group to connect with other families. This group is facilitated by one of our team.
- If you feel you need one to one support again, no matter how many months or years after, you can get back in touch with us at any time.
- We offer support over the phone, video calls and the opportunity to connect with other families through our online family support group.
Our Holding On service offers more intensive support where there are concerns about the risk of drug-related death.
- Offers a bespoke package of intensive support for the family, depending on their specific situation.
- Sessions are generally weekly and last around an hour per session.
- Sessions might include naloxone training, CRAFT, and specific training that suits the needs of the family. Focusing on self-care is an important part of the support.
- We offer support over the phone, video calls and the opportunity to connect with other families through our Holding On virtual family support group.
Our services generally offer weekly sessions, although this depends on your situation. We focus on the CRAFT (Community Reinforcement and Family Training) approach to family support. Our trained practitioners will explain and go through different topics each week such as boundaries, communication skills and self-care. If you feel CRAFT is not for you, we can look at other ways of supporting you.
