Group Meetings

No one sets out to be and addict/or an alcoholic. There are stages of addiction or dependence that a person usually goes through: experimentation, social use, substance abuse, and then addiction. Some people become addicted quickly and some more slowly over many months or years. Each person may differ in the intensity of their addiction, the substances and amounts used. Answer these questions to learn whether or not you have a problem with alcohol or drugs.

Drug and alcohol addiction doesn't discriminate. It affects men, women, teens, adults - people of all races and backgrounds. Those who are impacted by the devastating effects of drugs and alcohol often feel guilty, afraid, and isolated.

Jennifer Ginsberg, MSW, provides group meetings in a safe and confidential environment for those coping with alcohol, substance, and other forms of dependency. Her groups address issues of motherhood, anger, sadness, grief, and addiction. For those who secretly struggle with one or more of these, there is help. Join one of Jennifer’s weekly support group for moms or teens seeking solutions.

Groups include:

- Groups for moms who struggle with addiction
- Groups for teenage girls who struggle with addiction
- Groups for postpartum moms

Sessions are ninety minutes and take place in Santa Monica or in your home or office, or by phone depending upon circumstances and prior arrangements. Sliding scale available to those who qualify.
