 Edmond SMART Recovery Family and Friends meeting  is facilitated by Sarah Mears-Ivy, LPC with Edmond Counseling and Professional Development and is part of  SMART Recovery USA. 

Are you a family member or friend of someone facing challenges with addiction? You’re not alone. Our meeting is a safe, judgment‐free space designed specifically for the people who support those on the path to recovery.

At  Edmond SMART Recovery Family and Friends, our mission is to empower you with practical tools and evidence-based strategies. We believe that by supporting ourselves, we become better equipped to support our loved ones. 

Our meetings are grounded in the SMART Recovery approach—centered on self-empowerment, helpful thinking, and practical skills. When you join us, you can expect:

• A Safe Environment: Share your experiences in a supportive, confidential setting.
• Practical Tools: Learn strategies to manage stress, set healthy boundaries, and communicate effectively.
• Peer Support: Connect with others who understand the unique challenges of being a friend or family member of someone in recovery.
• Guided Discussions: Participate in sessions that focus on building understanding and practical resilience.
