Therapeutic Alliance

My name is Bryan Hullihen and I do consultation work for Paramount Recovery Services. Over the years I have had the pleasure of working with several treatment centers at varying levels of care which has provided me with exposure to many different methodologies concerning client care. One of things that I have learned over the years is the importance of the “therapeutic alliance” concerning an individual’s likelihood of completing treatment. Furthermore, those who complete the program’s requirements while taking direction through, and after, the treatment process have a much better chance of achieving long-term sobriety. Paramount Recovery Services is an aftercare program that serves as a bridge from treatment to living a life of sober independence. For the majority of the clients that come to our program they are coming to us after graduating their primary care setting. The client’s graduation proves the ability for the referring agency to have established a solid therapeutic alliance with the client which is impossible without intimate knowledge of the things that are necessary for the client’s continued recovery. It is for this reason that implementing the discharge plan from the referring agency is a top priority for the staff at Paramount Recovery Services. Paramount has its own structure, schedule, and activities which serve as the foundation for the client giving them a solid platform to practice the skills that are learned in treatment, however, Paramount understands that ignoring the recommendations of the referring agency is not what best serves the client. Paramount prides itself in implementing every facet of the discharge plan for the client while providing guidance in achieving the objectives delineated in the plan. Thank you for your time and support and I look forward to your comments.

Sincerely,

Bryan Hullihen
