Read an Excerpt
Geared specifically to women and gender-expansive people, this book brings a new perspective to the Twelve Step program, searching out the healing messages beneath the male-oriented words. The author explores the Twelve Steps one by one, reiterating each in its traditional language, then explaining and illustrating it in a way that highlights the experiences of women—empowering readers to take ownership of their own recovery process as well as their growth as individuals.
Acknowledging that recovery raises special issues for people who are not men—from questions about sexuality, relationships, and everyday life to anxieties about speaking up at mixed-gender meetings—A Woman's Way through the Twelve Steps focuses directly on these issues as it explores the experiences of addiction and healing for women.
The workbook is designed to be used in conjunction with A Woman's Way through the Twelve Steps Facilitator Guide in groups led by facilitators and by women on their own who seek to explore A Woman's Way through the Twelve Steps more fully. Experiential exercises and journaling activities deepen and extend the understanding of the lessons taught in the book. It empowers women, including LGBTQ+ individuals, to take ownership of their recovery by documenting their growth and recovery process in a personally meaningful way.
By nationally recognized expert Stephanie Covington, A Woman's Way through the Twelve Steps is a proven effective, gender-responsive approach to helping women find serenity through the Twelve Steps.
