Enhancing Recovery Through Integrated Care

With Emily Day, Lead Wellness Counsellor, EHN Guardians Gateway & Adam Fitzpatrick, Recreation Therapist, EHN Guardians Gateway

Join us on September 3 from 12 PM to 1 PM ET for an engaging discussion on how recreation and wellness can enhance recovery when integrated alongside clinical care. Together, these approaches help individuals build emotional regulation skills, strengthen resilience, foster meaningful social connections, and support overall well-being throughout the recovery journey.

In this session, we will explore how wellness interventions, including mindfulness, breathwork, yoga, and relaxation practices, can reinforce therapeutic goals and help individuals develop practical coping strategies that extend beyond inpatient treatment.

We will also examine the role of recreation and meaningful leisure in promoting behavioural activation, restoring a sense of purpose and enjoyment, and supporting long-term recovery from trauma, mental health challenges, and substance use disorders.
