12-Step vs. Non-12-Step vs. Therapy: What Actually Helps in Recovery?
Description
AA? SMART? Refuge? Therapy? Coaching?
If you’ve ever tried to get sober and felt overwhelmed by all the recovery options out there, this video breaks everything down in a simple, honest, and non-judgmental way. Whether you're sober-curious, in early recovery, or coming back after relapse — this guide will help you understand what’s out there and how to choose the right recovery modality for you.
In this 15 -minute breakdown, I cover:
✔ 12-Step programs (AA, NA, CA) — what they’re actually like
✔ SMART Recovery & secular options
✔ Refuge Recovery, Recovery Dharma & mindfulness-based modalities
✔ Therapy for addiction (CBT, DBT, EMDR, MI)
✔ Online recovery communities & sober coaching
✔ Harm reduction & medication support
✔ How to actually choose a path that fits your life, personality, and needs
Recovery isn’t “one size fits all.” It’s a toolbox.
You get to build the version that keeps you alive, sober, and growing.
