"I was with like-minded healthcare professionals, and I actually felt that they knew what I was going through. The Caduceus Recovery Group has been instrumental in my recovery. I would recommend this group to anyone struggling and in need of direction."

Our group leaders are addiction specialists.
Our Caduceus Recovery Groups at WELL Mental Health & Wellness are not doctor-led or based on Alcoholics Anonymous or Narcotics Anonymous. Weekly groups of 10 to 15 members are facilitated by certified addiction counsellors who draw on past experience leading groups to appropriately challenge relapse behaviour and support healthy new behaviour. As they are small groups, more time is available for helpful discussion.

As part of the Health Care Professionals Program at WELL Mental Health & Wellness, one-to-one mental health counselling, couples and family counselling are available. Our coordinator will provide quarterly Spectrum compliance reporting if requested.
Exclusive Caduceus group for Ontario nurses.
Get peer support from other RNs and RPNs in our nurses-only recovery group. Led by an experienced and certified addiction counsellor, this group addresses nurses' unique challenges.
The online group offers help for work stress, anxiety, depression, navigating monitoring programs and College issues. Group members are registered in the Nurses' Health Program (NHP) or are Ontario nurses looking for a recovery group that isn't a 12-step based program.
If requested, we can provide quarterly compliance reports to the NHP as proof of attendance.
"I met some excellent nurses. Listening to their words of wisdom and learning about their personal and professional struggles makes me feel more connected. I, too, began to share aspects of my personal journey."
