12-Step Program

12-Step Facilitation Therapy at White Oak Recovery Center
At White Oak Recovery Center, located in the heart of Hollywood, California, we recognize that the journey to sobriety and mental wellness is a deeply personal and often challenging process. As a leading California rehab center specializing in both addiction and mental health, we proudly offer 12-step facilitation therapy (TSF) as a foundational element of our comprehensive addiction treatment and mental health rehab programs. Rooted in the well-established principles of Alcoholics Anonymous (AA), TSF provides a structured and supportive framework to help individuals achieve lasting recovery from substance use disorders.
What Is 12-Step Facilitation Therapy?
12-step facilitation therapy is an evidence-based approach designed to encourage active involvement in 12-step programs such as AA and Narcotics Anonymous (NA). Unlike some traditional therapies, TSF emphasizes direct engagement with these fellowships, helping clients progress through the steps at their own pace. This therapy fosters essential elements like community support, accountability, and spiritual growth, which are all critical to sustaining long-term sobriety.
At White Oak Recovery Center, our dedicated therapists collaborate closely with every resident to tailor the 12-step program experience to their individual needs. Through carefully structured sessions and personalized guidance, we help build a strong foundation for recovery that lasts well beyond the walls of our Hollywood mental health center.
The 12 Steps of 12-Step Facilitation Therapy
The heart of 12-step facilitation therapy lies in the original twelve steps of Alcoholics Anonymous. Each step is designed to guide individuals through a process of self-awareness, acceptance, and growth:
-
Admit powerlessness over addiction
Acknowledging that you cannot control your addiction is the crucial first step toward seeking help.
-
Believe in a power greater than yourself
This encourages embracing a higher power, however you personally define it, to regain balance and clarity.
-
Decide to turn your will and life over to that higher power
A conscious commitment to surrender control and trust in this guiding force.
-
Take a fearless moral inventory of yourself
Reflecting honestly on your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to understand what drives your struggles.
-
Admit the exact nature of your wrongs to yourself, your higher power, and another person
Promoting honesty, accountability, and emotional release.
-
Be ready to have your higher power remove your defects of character
Cultivating openness to change and growth
-
Humbly ask your higher power to remove your shortcomings
Practicing humility and seeking support to overcome limitations.
-
Make a list of all persons you have harmed and become willing to make amends
Preparing to repair relationships and take responsibility.
-
Make direct amends to those you have harmed whenever possible
Taking concrete actions to heal past wounds caused by addiction.
-
Continue to take personal inventory and promptly admit when you are wrong
Developing ongoing self-awareness and responsibility.
-
Seek through prayer and meditation to improve your conscious contact with your higher power
Deepening your spiritual connection and guidance.
-
Having had a spiritual awakening, carry this message to others and practice these principles in all your affairs
Living the recovery principles daily and supporting others on their journey.
How 12-Step Facilitation Therapy Works at White Oak Recovery Center
Our admissions team plays an essential role in welcoming new residents and conducting thorough assessments to craft individualized treatment plans that incorporate TSF. This ensures your recovery journey aligns with your unique history, goals, and challenges.
Once admitted, residents participate in weekly, therapist-led 12-step program sessions focusing on understanding and applying each step, addressing resistance, and fostering commitment to change. Active participation in 12-step programs like AA and NA is encouraged during and after treatment to build a strong support network critical for maintaining sobriety.
Recovery is an ongoing process, so White Oak Recovery Center provides continued care through alumni programs, regular check-ins, and community resources to support lasting success.
