Willow Tree Counseling: “The purpose of this Relapse Autopsy is to help you recognize what issues, patterns, and choices contributed to your relapse so that you can learn from it. After all, the only mistake that is worthless is the one you do not learn from! This Relapse Autopsy will walk you through various aspects of your relapse and current recovery to help you identify what you have minimized that contributed to your relapse, what you have failed to do that allowed your relapse to occur, and what changes you can make in your recovery to avoid repeating these patterns. The ultimate goal of this Relapse Autopsy process is to create sustained and solid sobriety.”
