Healing Through Steps 8-10: Insights from Allen Berger, Ph.D.

Magically, if you will, in steps and is, we make a list of the people we've harmed, we become willing to make amends to them and then we go make amends to them, and less doing so is going to injure them, right?
Imagine the courage it takes to confront past mistakes and make amends. In this episode of 'One Hour AT A Time', host Mary Woods sits down with Allen Berger, Ph.D., a seasoned therapist and recovering addict, to unpack the transformative power of Steps 8-10 in the recovery journey. These steps focus on mending relationships and fostering self-respect, crucial yet often daunting aspects of sobriety. Dr.
Berger brings a wealth of personal and professional experience to the table, offering listeners practical advice and heartfelt stories that illuminate the path to healing. He explains how creating a list of those harmed (Step 8), making direct amends (Step 9), and maintaining personal accountability (Step 10) can lead to profound changes in one's life. Dr. Berger also touches on the foundational Steps 1-3, emphasizing their therapeutic value and the importance of acceptance and self-love.
Whether you're in recovery or supporting someone who is, this episode provides invaluable insights into navigating these challenging but rewarding steps.
