Family Recovery is a small team of professional clinicians working primarily with court-mandated adults and community mental health clients throughout the Northeast Georgia region.

Our primary work is with outpatient adult offenders whose treatment is often a condition of their sentences. It can be an incredibly rewarding experience to both help our clients change for the better, while also helping reduce victimization in the community at the same time. We work with our clients for extended periods (1-3 years), so we're able to be part of celebrating their successes as they reincorporate back into society.

Guiding others through change isn't always easy, so we understand that it's just as important to invest in our therapists' wellbeing and self-care. We do this in a number of ways:

• We're closed every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday

• IRA contributions
• Salary paid biweekly
• "No-show protection" (You will get paid whether you see a client or not)
• Weekly mileage reimbursement
