Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous

February 23, 2023 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm

a group of people at the NAMI support event in Orange County, CA

The Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous (S.L.A.A.) of Orange County hosts weekly events at Barn Life Recovery through an affiliate program every Thursday at 7:00pm.

S.L.A.A. is a Twelve Step, Twelve Tradition oriented fellowship based on the model pioneered by Alcoholics Anonymous. Anyone who struggles with a sex and/or love addiction (self-diagnosed) is welcome to attend to share their experience and discuss methods for overcoming their addiction.

The S.L.A.A. community boasts a high level of diversity of race, gender, and orientation. This supportive group values the differences we share and encourages all who participate to bring their true, authentic selves to the forum. It is the goal of the meetings to provide a safe space for all to feel welcome.

To counter the destructive consequences of sex and love addiction we draw on five major resources:

  1. Sobriety – Our willingness to stop acting out in our own personal bottom line addictive behavior on a daily basis.
  2. Sponsorship/Meetings – Our capacity to reach out for the supportive fellowship within S.L.A.A.
  3. The 12 Steps – Our practice of the Twelve Step program of recovery to achieve sexual and emotional sobriety.
  4. Service – Our giving back to the S.L.A.A. community what we continue to freely receive.
  5. Spirituality – Our developing a relationship with a Power greater than ourselves which can guide and sustain us in recovery.

Like all other Barn Life Recovery affiliated groups, the S.L.A.A. group does not require a registration to attend and is totally free to the public. You do not need to be a client of Barn Life Recovery to participate in the group.

Our treatment center at Barn Life Recovery hosts support groups as a way of normalizing mental health by modeling the characteristics of a supportive community. We want to create a non-judgmental environment where people feel safe. Join Us!

For any questions about this community support group please contact our facilitator, Matt.

Hear From Those We've Impacted

Barn Life is uniquely special. As someone who has had long stretches of sobriety with "traditional" communities and methods, Barn Life stepped in when I started struggling during the pandemic and said "traditional" methods failed to help.The staff here are exceptional. This is a truly subjective statement, but it is my honest opinion that the people from the owner (Hi Matt!) to EVERYONE else works there because they believe in the work and want to share the tools they found.Barn Life and their little sibling, Peer Mental Wellness were the launchpad from a shell of an existence to person with self-love/respect, and a life-mission of personal development.

Best for someone looking for spiritual healing in addition to their mental health healing.

Barn life is probably one of the most amazing facilities you could ever attend when it comes to mental illness. This was the first place that popped up when I was searching for help and I’m so thankful that it did. The environment is very therapeutic, the staff is awesome, and the group discussions and activities were so helpful in me understanding what I was experiencing. Do not hesitate to be a part of this place. It’s literally a game changer. I was only there for 6 weeks but I wished I stayed at least 6 months. Ever since returning home, I’ve been much happier and my perspective has changed dramatically. I’ve done things and participated in events at my college that I never thought I would be able to do. This place is truly amazing and I’m forever grateful that I found this place.

Through trial and error of trying to stay sober this program is definitely the most caring and supporting of them all if anyone needs help and is willing to help themselves I suggest barnlife they will for a fact give you the push you need and the tools to keep you going

My daughter has been at Barn Life Recovery now for two months. It was my last resort to send her 9 hours away from me. She has been in drug and mental health rehabs in and out for two years. This was my last stitch effort to save my daughter and get her back to herself. Alyssa and I spoke multiple times before deciding. Their willingness to do everything for her and the different teams they have work with them is amazing. My daughter is happy again and clean and sober. She loves it there in their outpatient program. They restore your faith in humanity. They help restore someone who is broken in so many places to themselves. They have put the light back in my daughters eyes. They are committed to helping each person who truly wants the help. They assist in helping them get jobs and be responsible members of society. I recommend their program to anyone wanting to recover from drug, alcohol and mental health.Thank you to all the people at Barn Life who have made my daughter smile and bring the light back to her eyes. I am truly grateful.DawnaLee
