Like doctors, nurses and others in the helping
professions, clergy often have unrealistic expectations of what they can
do for others. The pressure can be enormous, putting them at risk for
addiction. At Brighton Hospital, we believe that spirituality is a basic
premise to rehab, recovery, and of daily living. From this belief we’ve
created an innovative rehab program for clergy of all faiths; Christian,
Jewish, Muslim, Hindu, and others who are seeking drug treatment. Our
Clergy Rehab Program includes daily spiritual services, lectures and
discussions specifically for the rehabilitation needs of clergy seeking
recovery. Members of clergy in our rehab program will develop skills to
cope with secondary trauma and perfectionism, learn practical methods of
self-care and develop techniques for dealing with guilt and shame.
With our innovative Clergy Rehab Program, we are
filling a need for previously unmet Christian drug treatment services in
the Midwest. While there are drug treatment
programs specifically for nuns and priests offered in Michigan and
throughout the Midwest, we saw a need for other inter-faith, and
non-Catholic drug rehab programs. Our Clergy Rehab Program is currently
working with Christian churches, Jewish synagogues and other
multi-denominational, inter-faith groups to bring drug treatment to all
who seek it, whether clergy or congregants.
