How Oasis Treatment Centers Integrates the 12 Steps into Treatment
We incorporate the 12-step framework in a modern, non-judgmental way that complements our outpatient programs, including PHP, IOP, and Evening IOP.
Our approach includes:
- 12-Step Educational Groups – Learn the history, structure, and purpose of each step in a supportive clinical setting.
- Step Work Support – Begin or continue working the steps with guidance from trained staff and peers.
- In-House 12-Step Meetings – Regular Alcoholics Anonymous (AA), Narcotics Anonymous (NA), and/or Cocaine Anonymous (CA) meetings are available on-site or nearby in Orange County.
- Sponsorship and Fellowship – Encouragement to connect with sponsors and develop a strong sober support network.
- Integration with Therapy – Reinforce 12-step principles during individual and group therapy to deepen insight and personal growth.
Why Choose a 12-Step Based Approach?
The 12-Step model has helped millions of people worldwide find stability in recovery. It offers structure, fellowship, and a roadmap for emotional, mental, and spiritual healing. Many find comfort in the shared experiences, daily practices, and service-oriented mindset that keep them grounded.
- Proven reach: Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) alone has more than 2 million members across 100,000+ groups in 150 countries, making it one of the largest and most accessible peer-support networks.(AA at a Glance)
- Supports long-term recovery: Research shows that individuals who participate in 12-Step programs often experience higher rates of sustained recovery from alcohol use compared to some other treatment approaches. Importantly, these programs can work in combination with therapies like CBT and DBT — enhancing both accountability and personal growth. (Stanford Medicine)
- Accessible and cost-effective: Because meetings are peer-led and widely available, 12-Step involvement provides ongoing support at little to no cost — with some studies noting significant reductions in healthcare expenses.
