12 Step Facilitation Therapy

12 step facilitation therapy treatments are semi-structured therapies created to help people abstain from drinking alcohol or doing other types of drugs. The way this works is that the person is encouraged to stay sober through community-based support and through a series of 12 steps.

To this point, 12 step facilitation therapy is mainly focusing on connecting people to AAS or NA. AA was the 1st of its kind to help people overcome addiction.

If you struggle with addiction, our team here at Harmony Recovery Center in Charlotte, NC can help you to overcome it. We can use 12 step facilitation therapy in your treatment plan.

Adolescents and the 12 Steps

It is unfortunate when anyone falls ill due to an addiction. However, we must also specifically note about adolescents with addictions. There are many teenagers who are abusing alcohol and drugs. Sometimes, it is due to peer pressure, genetics, family environment or other stressors in life. No matter what the cause may be, 12 step facilitation therapy can help adolescents to abstain from alcohol and work through underlying issues.

Our team has the training needed to help adolescents who have an addiction to drugs or alcohol. If you know an adolescent or you are an adolescent who needs to overcome a drug or alcohol addiction, reach out to us and our team will help you.
