Stopping is not the same as healing
The Recovery Room is a trauma-informed recovery studio in Thousand Oaks, CA, and an online community. Through somatic healing, identity work, and a modern, trauma-informed approach to the 12 Steps, we help you recover from chemical and behavioral addictions, heal what's underneath, and come home to your authentic self, so you can build a life you love.

Sober, and guiding this work
Our approach
Recovery that starts at the root
Addiction grows out of pain, usually the pain of a belief we learned early: that we aren't worthy of love. You can't shame a nervous system into feeling safe. So we don't start by asking what's wrong with you. We start by asking what happened to you, and what your patterns have been protecting.
Who is it for
For anyone who's tired of running from themselves.
You're in early sobriety and the feelings are stronger than ever.
You've been sober for years but still feel stuck, anxious, disconnected or ashamed.
Your addiction doesn't come in a bottle: instead, it looks like work, food, relationships, scrolling, pleasing, performing or perfecting.
The traditional 12 step rooms helped, but something essential was missing.
The meetings give you community but something still feels "off"
You've never set foot in a meeting, but you know something has to change.
