Relapse Prevention Relapse Prevention is outpatient group therapy that offers less-intensive structure for patients who have already established a program of recovery and would benefit from additional support. This therapy helps to increase insight into the dynamics of relapse and how to identify warning signs.  Relapse Prevention groups provide a stable structure for patients while they increase and improve their own self-help support system and focus on other concerns that may impact their risk for relapse.
