“This workbook can save a lot of 12-Step members pain and suffering
in early recovery and beyond. Much gratitude to Jamie and Stephen
for this offering!”
—Mackenzie Phillips, New York Times best-selling author of High on
Arrival
“By incorporating trauma-responsive exercises, meditation, and
expressive arts into 12-Step work, readers will be able to utilize
the gifts of the Steps. Jamie and Stephen are on my gratitude
list!”
—Claudia Black, PhD, addiction specialist and author of It Will
Never Happen to Me
“Invaluable for anyone on the path of recovery for whom trauma is
co-occurring—whether they are new to 12-Step recovery or a
veteran.”
—Dan Mager, MSW, author of Some Assembly Required
“This is a sincere and informed offering to help achieve the goals
of the Steps that seem out of reach for those dealing with trauma
to become happily and usefully whole.”
—Jay Dee Daugherty, New York State Certified Addiction Recovery
Coach and drummer in the Patti Smith Group
“I was already twelve years into my recovery when someone mentioned
that “trauma” could apply to me. I had a visceral response and
fought it with almost the same amount of energy that I immersed
myself into it. In the ensuing years, as a devoted twelve-stepper,
I have tried to marry the wisdom and beauty of the twelve steps
with the healing of trauma work. Now, in 2023, in meetings I hear
people talking about trauma a lot more. There is an (r)evolutionary
conversation happening in recovery that is so necessary for the
twelve-step community and our healing. Workbooks like this will be
an essential tool to help us integrate synergistically these two
perspectives. I deeply respect Jamie and Steve for their work and
for their leadership and giving this gift of profound healing to
all of those still suffering.”
—Dan Griffin, author A Man’s Way through the Twelve Steps
“I wish I had this workbook when I got sober. With gratitude and a
deep breath, I highly endorse Trauma and the 12-Steps—The Workbook
as a bridge between what we know works in twelve-step recovery and
what we need to incorporate from our current trauma-informed
knowledge base. This workbook will guide the reader towards an
experiential relationship with each step. All too often, step work
has become a strictly cognitive exercise, leading people in
recovery to a perpetual whack-a-mole game with their ongoing,
unresolved symptoms. Jamie and Stephen have combined their
decades-long personal experiences in recovery with their expertise
as trauma therapists to bring the steps alive in a comprehensive
and holistic way, and I applaud them for it.”
—Ingrid Clayton, PhD, author of Believing Me
