Marijuana has long been an equal opportunity drug, nearly as common among women as among men. This is hardly surprising when you consider what the drug does: marijuana offers a palliative and relaxing effect to suit the mind and body. As neither gender is a stranger to the scourge of daily stress, it only stands to reason that marijuana should be as popular as it is.
When it comes to treatment, however, women and men respond differently to different approaches. Although a number of men prefer confessional group therapy meetings, an equal number prefer to go it alone via private therapy and other one-on-one approaches. Dr. Karen Dodge has demonstrated conclusively that women prefer just the opposite-communal support is near to the bedrock of who we are.
To that end, Orchid Recovery Center was designed expressly to offer centering, healing, and compassionate approaches that cater to the needs of women in concert. The umbrella term for this philosophy is "relational growth," a label that effectively captures the interpersonal nature of recovery. When you attend Orchid, you can expect to spend plenty of time learning life lessons, sharing stories, and otherwise drawing on the strength of addicts and professional therapists alike.
