Description
 
Would you like to start a self help group for Self Injury?

S.A.F.E. Focus™ is a voluntary support group which utilizes guidelines developed by the S.A.F.E. ALTERNATIVES® Program. This support group focuses on identifying, verbalizing, and tolerating feelings, rather than on underlying issues.  As participants begin to engage in this work, they may recognize similar, if not identical, behaviors in fellow group members.  Such recognition may be uncomfortable, yet it is highly beneficial because awareness is the first step towards recovery.  Additional emphasis is placed on group interaction by using verbal communication and developing interpersonal skills.  Participants will learn to take in and give constructive feedback.  The importance of healthy risk-taking will be stressed in order to provide the participant with an opportunity to develop new coping skills in place of self-injury.  

S.A.F.E. Focus™ strongly recommends that each group member be simultaneously engaged in individual therapy for the duration of the group sessions.  S.A.F.E. Focus™ is not a replacement for “one on one” psychotherapy, it is a support group.  For more information on finding a therapist visit our referral information.  

The purpose of S.A.F.E. ALTERNATIVES® S.A.F.E. Focus™ is to provide a structured group for those who self injure and desire to change that behavior.
Exercises and assignments focusing on basic principles of the S.A.F.E. ALTERNATIVES® philosophy, will help participants identify and express their feelings appropriately and to decrease or eliminate the impulses to self injure.  This program meets weekly for 12 weeks, 2 hours per week (participants may attend additional 12 week sessions with approval from the group facilitator).  

For more information on facilitating S.A.F.E. Focus™ or becoming a group participant visit our admission information.  

S.A.F.E. Focus™ Group Facilitator:

Anyone who organizes the formation of the group automatically becomes the Facilitator.  It is helpful if the Facilitator has group or leadership experience and may be in recovery from self injury.  The leader manual contains a detailed explanation for all groups, exercises and assignments.  The Facilitator’s first task is to recruit a minimum of four members for the group using the assessment in the manual as a guide.  From that number, the Facilitator can find a volunteer to appoint to the position of Treasurer.  Additionally, it is the Facilitator’s responsibility to call the meeting to order, read any announcements, facilitate the direction of the group, oversee the “wrap up” process and make S.A.F.E. ALTERNATIVES® material available to group members.

Purchasing the leader manual entitles the bearer to list their group on our website for 1 year. You may renew your listing each year for a nominal fee.
