Intervention Programs

Welcome to Solid Foundation Counseling Services. We provide a range of programs. These programs have been carefully developed using evidence-based Cognitive Behavioral interventions and curriculums. Each program includes our Core Program, which aims to address individual risks and needs comprehensively. We prioritize Motivational Engagement to foster motivation and readiness for change. Through exploring decision-making processes, values, and their connection to impulsive and irrational behavior, we strive to empower individuals on their journey towards positive change.

The Cognitive-Behavioral Intervention -Core Program is designed to comprehensively address individual risks and needs. It focuses on Motivational Engagement to build motivation and readiness for change by exploring decision-making processes, values, and their connection to criminal behavior. The program also emphasizes goal setting and steps to achieving those goals.

Another key aspect of the program is the identification and challenge of distorted thinking patterns. By helping individuals recognize and challenge cognitive distortions and irrational beliefs, they can learn to reframe their thoughts in a more balanced and constructive way.

Enhancing problem-solving and decision-making skills is another important component of the program. By teaching problem-solving techniques, encouraging critical thinking, and promoting responsible decision-making in various life domains, individuals can improve their ability to make informed and responsible choices.

The program places a strong emphasis on personal responsibility and accountability for one's actions. It aims to help individuals acknowledge the consequences of their behavior, take ownership of their actions, and develop a strong sense of personal accountability. Additionally, the program seeks to instill pro-social values and behaviors that align with societal norms and expectations. This includes teaching the importance of honesty, integrity, respect, and other positive values, and encouraging individuals to incorporate these principles into their daily lives.

The CBI-DV program is a comprehensive approach aimed at improving public safety and reducing repeat offenses among individuals involved in interpersonal violence and aggression. Building upon the foundation of the CBI program, the CBI-DV program incorporates additional components to specifically address the complexities of domestic violence. 

The program includes Violence Awareness Sessions, where participants gain a deeper understanding of the dynamics and consequences of violence. These sessions provide education on the impact of violent behavior and help individuals recognize the harmful effects it has on themselves and others. Emotion Regulation Sessions are also an integral part of the CBI-DV program. Participants learn strategies to identify and manage their emotions in healthy ways, reducing the likelihood of impulsive and aggressive reactions. By developing effective emotion regulation skills, individuals can respond to challenging situations in a more controlled and non-violent manner. 

Managing Interpersonal Relationships Sessions focus on improving communication and conflict resolution abilities. Participants learn techniques for effective communication, active listening, and assertiveness, which contribute to healthier and more respectful relationships. These sessions also address power dynamics and promote equality and mutual respect. Problem Solving is another key component of the CBI-DV program. Participants acquire practical problem-solving skills that enable them to navigate difficult situations without resorting to violence. By learning constructive ways to address conflicts and find solutions, individuals are empowered to make positive changes in their lives and relationships.

Mens Program

Women's Program 

Our Women's Abuse Intervention Program allow for women to understand the root of their anger, and how to better control it. The causes of women's abusive behavior tend to be more complicated and somewhat different than men's abusive patterns.  We focus on victimization issues common among women, such as managing trauma, assertiveness, and boundary setting. These groups focus on providing support to women who are either currently in or have been in an abusive relationship. The program follows the Turning Points Curriculum which provides structured ways to examine and come to terms with the context, scope, and meaning of violence in each participant’s daily life. The program educates women about domestic violence, clarifies its different forms, and makes visible the impact of domestic violence on the relationships and well-being of family members. Participants will be challenged to fully examine their use of violence, their motivations, and what their violence is actually doing.

The Anger Management Program (AMP) is designed to address offenses of violence between strangers, roommates, adult siblings, parent/adult child, in-laws, and neighbors. It is a 12-week group or individual counseling program that focuses on teaching participants several alternatives to acting out with anger or rage. Participants will analyze how thoughts and emotions affect decision making and responsible behavior; will learn and apply strategies to manage stress; learn strategies for preventing and resolving conflicts

A structured program that aims to help participants prevent sexual offending and related behaviors. It combines individual and group treatment to enhance the development of cognitive, social, emotional, and coping skills. The treatment strategies employed in the program align with the recommendations of the Association for the Treatment of Sexual Abusers (ATSA) for the treatment of sex offenders.

The CBI-SO program incorporates all aspects of the CBI program while also addressing the risk factors that can change over time, such as lifestyle, impulsiveness, dysfunctional coping, and lack of concern for others. The program focuses on reducing criminogenic needs and teaching individuals how to achieve their goals in healthy and pro-social ways. Criminogenic needs encompass various factors, including but not limited to access to potential victims, preference for victim type, employment and living circumstances, leisure time activities, substance misuse, intimacy deficits, sexual preoccupation, deviant sexual interests and arousal, attitudes supportive of offending, hostility towards women, antisocial lifestyle, associates, and lack of cooperation with supervision.

By addressing these risk factors and providing individuals with the necessary skills and strategies, the CBI-SO program aims to prevent sexual offending and promote positive behavior in a healthy and pro-social manner.
