Here's a course that may help you.

Celebrate Recovery is a 12-step course, which offers people the opportunity of a fresh start, new hope, ongoing support and encouragement to both men & women who have struggles with 'hurts, habits and hang-ups'.

We live in a time when many people carry serious damage in their lives. Some from past mistakes and others from experiences, where they have been a victim. Often deep rooted issues leave individuals with nowhere to turn for understanding or help. Celebrate Recovery is a Christ-centred programme designed to help people to take steps out of their problems and to 'Recover' life as God intended for us. The goal is to help each person find a freedom and peace that Jesus promised for everyone and to celebrate God's healing power in their lives.

The Celebrate Recovery course takes a year to complete and goes through a series of 12 steps applying biblical principles, which allow us to become changed and free from the pain and conflicts in our lives. As we begin to grow spiritually, this freedom brings us to a place of peace and joy, giving us strong personal relationships, both with God and with other people.

Meetings are arranged in small groups, which provide a safe place to share experiences, strength and hope with others. These are led by an understanding leader and opportunity is provided for working with an accountability partner.

No attempt is made to offer any professional clinical advice.

The first part of the meeting takes place in a larger group setting. At this point a lesson is taught. The rest of the meeting is split into small groups which are gender specific. The Celebrate Recovery programme is tried and tested and is both practical and biblical. This programme has been instrumental in releasing and healing many thousands of people, worldwide and in helping them to find a new life that is worth living.
