ICSAA 2018 Sheila K Psychotherapy and Secular AA
The intersection of Secular AA & Psychotherapy: How AA informs mental health treatment and why Secular AA is important in this partnership... "My name's Sheila K and I'm an alcoholic." She's also a Bay-area psychotherapist who feels that mental-health care owes a lot to AA rituals and modality and why now, with a growing thirst for secular recovery, it's time to end the greatest secret in health care: Secular AA. Patients can find help with addiction without belief in a prayer-answering, sobriety-granting higher power.
This meeting was well attended, well received and as you'll hear after the formal presentation, it inspired heart-felt sharing.
