There are several types of treatments for those struggling with addiction. 12-step facilitation therapy is one of them. This type of therapy is designed to increase a person’s odds of being able to manage their addiction. It focuses on helping a person with acceptance, which includes accepting the fact that their addiction is a disease. In addition, 12 step facilitation therapy helps a person learn how to surrender. They learn to give themself over to a higher power.

Goals of 12 Step Facilitation Therapy
It is often helpful to be familiar with the 12 steps of alcoholic anonymous and/or the 12 steps of narcotics anonymous. One of our team members would be honored to walk you through both of these programs. There are two main key factors of 12 step facilitation therapy. These include the following:
- Acceptance – This involves realizing that you have a chronic illness and you aren’t able to control your use of drugs or alcohol.
- Surrender – Surrendering to your higher power and fellowship with the help of AA or NA can help you greatly in recovery
Here at Recovery by the Sea, we can help you to manage the addiction and get the appropriate treatments. Most importantly, we can help you regain control over your personality, values and your entire life.
Objectives of 12 Step Facilitation Therapy
The two key objectives of 12 step facilitation therapy involve working on building harmony and peace in your life with the help of NA and AA. These objectives include the following:
- Emotional – A person becomes familiar with emotions and learns that certain kinds of emotions often lead to the abuse of harmful substances
- Cognitive – A person learns to understand how some of their thought processes have been affected by their addiction and you learn how to make amends due to the consequences of your addiction
- Social – A person needs to attend and partake in AA/NA meetings and get a sponsor (the sponsor will help you to be more aware of your triggers and help you through your recovery)
- Behavioral – A person needs to understand how their illness has affected others in their life
- Spiritual – A person should look forward to experiencing hope with the help of a higher power (you will learn how to have faith that everything will work out)
It can be hard for those struggling with an addiction. However, with help from our team, you can learn to overcome addictive habits and live a happy lifestyle.
