What to Expect During 12 Step Treatment
Each step in the 12-step process offers a chance to reflect, rebuild, and grow. At Northridge, we walk you through them one by one—at your own pace, with support at every stage. Here’s a look at how these steps can become part of your recovery journey:
Step 1
Admitting You’re StrugglingThe first step is about being honest with yourself and admitting that addiction has made life unmanageable.
Step 2
Believing Recovery Is PossibleOpen up to the idea that something greater than your addiction—community, purpose, or higher values—can help guide you.
Step 3
Letting Go of ControlRecovery often means giving up the illusion that you can fix everything by yourself. This helps you begin trusting the process, your peers, and the structure around you.
Step 4
Taking a Personal InventoryBegin taking stock of your thoughts, behaviors, and patterns—not to feel shame, but to understand yourself more fully.
Step 5
Speaking HonestlyShare what you’ve discovered with someone you trust. Lift the weight of secrecy and start building authentic relationships.
Step 6
Being Ready to GrowRecognize what’s no longer serving you—and get ready to change it. It’s not about being perfect; it’s about being open.
Step 7
Asking for HelpGrowth doesn’t happen in a vacuum. Learning to ask for help from others—whether that’s peers, mentors, or something bigger.
Step 8
Acknowledging the HarmBegin identifying the people you’ve hurt—intentionally or not—and think about how you might begin to repair those relationships.
Step 9
Making AmendsIf and when the time is right, this step gives you the opportunity to make things right without causing further harm to yourself or others.
Step 10
Practicing AccountabilityEven in recovery, we all make mistakes. Check in with yourself regularly and take responsibility when you get off track.
Step 11
Connecting with Your ValuesThis step encourages reflection, prayer, or meditation—whatever helps you stay grounded in your goals and focused on what matters most to you.
Step 12
Giving BackThe final step is about sharing what you’ve learned. Whether you support a newcomer or stay involved in your recovery community, this is where healing becomes sustainable.
