Treatment Services

Colorado Health Partnerships’ focus is on a recovery driven system of care - not just on symptom management. CHP’s focuses on helping a person achieve their personal goals, in all areas of their life. Our members have taught us that the following basic principles are needed for a recovery-focused system of care:

• Hope for the future is the cornerstone of recovery. A recovery-focused system of care conveys hope to consumers, families and professionals alike. Recovery is an on-going and individual process. Personal goals are not defined by the professional, but defined by the consumer. It is an individual process that supports choice and exploring alternatives based on a person’s values, strengths and interests.
  
  
• Services address both the experience of symptoms and the additional effects of having a mental illness such as stigma and discrimination.
  
  
• Recovery means developing a sense of control over one’s life and taking responsibility for the course of one’s future. Rather than focusing on illness and on the past, recovery is present and future directed. It focuses on improving a person’s capabilities and confidence and setting goals for the future.
  
  
• Recovery is a partnership using both professional interventions as well as self-directed coping strategies.
  
  
• Recovery is enhanced when people develop social networks for support and friendship. It enables people to identify allies and supports in their natural environments.
