"For over thirty years, I have been helping women who are trying to recover from addiction. In that time, we have learned a great deal about how women grow and develop and about the unique needs of women in recovery. I have incorporated that knowledge into this program. Although the program is designed for women with harmful use of alcohol and other drugs, much of the material can be helpful to any woman. This program is now being used in mental health clinics, eating disorder programs, and domestic violence shelters, aswell as in substance use disorder treatment programs in many jails and prisons. Helping Women Recover addresses issues that many women struggle with, especially if they are addicted to alcohol or other drugs. Each woman's path of healing is unique, but most of us find that it involves discovering our true selves, connecting in healthy relationships with others, understanding our sexuality, and gaining some spiritual connection. Recovery is like a spiral upward, away from a life that revolves around the objects of addiction (alcohol or other drugs, food, sex, and so forth) and outward into ever-widening circles of freedom, self-knowledge, and connection with others"--
