Relapse Prevention Therapy vs. Court-Ordered Programs
Relapse prevention therapy is sometimes confused with court-mandated requirements, but the purpose is different.
Relapse Prevention Therapy
- therapeutic and treatment-focused
- often voluntary or referral-based
- supports long-term recovery goals
- integrated into outpatient care
Court-Ordered Programs
- assigned by courts or probation
- focused on compliance and completion
- address specific legal requirements
If you were ordered to complete a court-mandated program, it’s important to confirm whether relapse prevention therapy meets that requirement.
