Personalized Recovery Oriented Services (PROS)

Overview

The Program for Self Discovery is a Personalized Recovery Oriented Services (PROS) program located at Greater Mental Health’s Valley Cottage location and licensed by the NYS Office of Mental Health. The PROS Program for Self Discovery offers hope and recovery to people ages 18 and older who are seeking support with their mental health. PROS members work in partnership with our team to learn and establish the necessary skills and supports for accomplishing their individualized recovery goals.

The PROS Program for Self Discovery combines a blend of individual and group counseling customized to meet each member’s needs and recovery goals. In PROS, group counseling sessions are called classes, as we feel each class and experience is meant to be a learning opportunity. Examples of class offerings include: Creating Healthy Relationships, Living with Life’s Losses, Parenting Today, Self-Expression through Art, Managing Emotions with Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Working through Anger.
