What Is 12-Step Immersion?
“The term ’12 Step Immersion’ has become synonymous with programs who utilize the residential, non-clinical, mutual help approach to working with alcohol and drug addicted individuals.” – Still Waters Recovery
Taylor Made Retreat is the only 12 Step Immersion program on the West Coast, and one of very few worldwide. While most people are familiar with the 12 Steps, many have asked what sets 12 Step Immersion apart from other approaches. How does it differ from following the 12 Steps independently or in meetings? And perhaps most importantly, what sets it apart from traditional treatment?
To explore these questions in depth, we invite you to delve into this presentation from our friends at Still Waters Recovery in Tennessee, whose program is very similar to ours at Taylor Made Retreat. Through their insights, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of the history of 12 Step Immersion, its transformative impact, and the core components of an immersion program, including:
