AA Alternatives
Clinically Reviewed by: Charee Marquez, LMFT
Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) is a well-known and widely-used program for those seeking recovery from alcohol addiction. However, not everyone is comfortable with the principles and practices of AA. If you’re looking for alternatives to AA, there are a variety of options to choose from.
One alternative to AA is SMART Recovery. This program focuses on self-empowerment and teaches participants to use specific tools and techniques to overcome addiction. SMART Recovery uses a four-point program that focuses on building motivation, coping with cravings, managing thoughts and behaviors, and living a balanced life.
Another alternative to AA is Women for Sobriety (WFS). This program is specifically designed for women and takes a unique approach to recovery. WFS focuses on emotional and spiritual growth, and teaches participants to use positive affirmations and other tools to overcome addiction.
There are also a variety of non-twelve-step programs that can provide an alternative to AA. These programs take a more personalized and holistic approach to recovery, and may incorporate elements like meditation, yoga, and art therapy. Some non-twelve-step programs are gender-specific, while others are open to people of all genders.
In conclusion, if you’re looking for alternatives to AA, there are many options to choose from. From self-empowerment programs to gender-specific approaches, there is a wide range of programs that can support your recovery journey. By taking the time to explore your options and find the right program for you, you can start your journey towards a healthier, addiction-free life.
