Is AA/NA/CA/MA/CMA for me?
12-Step programs have helped many people achieve sobriety. Through this process, “The Program” helps people restore their lives. The 12-Steps are about humility, understanding, forgiveness and achieving balance in one’s life. The program is world renowned and has been adapted to treat many other problems other than addiction. We believe in the 12-Steps and the recovery that can happen when one “Works The Steps.” The program is simple, “Keep It Simple”, and straightforward: “It Works If You Work It & Won’t If You Don’t.”
What if I’m not comfortable with the 12-Step Programs?
You may be feeling as if you are on the road t
o recovery all alone. We are there to help you if for one reason or another you may not be comfortable with the 12-Step approach. Especially if abstinence is not the goal, the 12-Steps may not be the best approach.

Are you, a family member, or a friend dealing with substance dependence?
Substance dependence (SD) affects everyone who is part of the dependent individual’s life. Anger, disappointment, betrayal are only a few of the feelings that come with SD. Are you wondering how this became your problem and why your life has become unmanageable? Do you require the assistance of an Interventionist to motivate your loved one to change? Children of SD often have difficulty with relationships and identifying their own needs, often becoming substance abusers themselves or marry others with drug/alcohol problems. You see, there are unspoken rules in such a family. These unspoken rules are, “We do not talk, trust or feel.” These rules can create pain and sadness in your life and Codependency. You may need help, too. Everyone in the SD family needs help to recover from the long-ranging effects of substance dependence.
