Summary/Abstract: The Framing and Transforming Power of the Therapeutic Community – Workshop. One of the most effective methods for treating addiction is to follow recovery programmes in therapeutic communities, which are drug-free environments where people with addictions (or other problems) live together in an organized and structured way to support change and enable drug-free living in the outside community, outside the confines of the programme. The mutually supportive presence of people in the therapeutic community, using a competence-building, encounter method, allows for the cognitive reframing of thought and life experience patterns, which is an essential ingredient of successful recovery and substance-free living.
