Work through our addiction program at your own pace
We do not
believe that addiction is a chronic
disease that cannot be cured. We believe addiction is a compelling,
destructive involvement that — because it detracts from other areas of
people’s lives — forces them to rely with greater exclusivity on the
addictive experience they get from the involvement, whether with drugs
or anything else.
In the Life Program you will
spend time setting goals for living an addiction free life and you will
develop the skills and tools necessary to accomplish those goals. Most
importantly, you will do all of these things while going about your day
to day life.

In this revolutionary analysis of addiction, Peele and Brodsky draw on years of research to refute the contention that addictions are biologically based diseases that last a life time.
Examining addiction within the context of people's lives, they show that addictive behavior is a way of coping with situational stress--and that it can be overcome without medical treatment or 12-step groups.
