If you visit http://www.smartrecovery.org, and click on the top left you can search for meetings in your area. Alternatively, you can crate an account online and try online meetings.

You can purchase the handbook from Amazon, or alternatively, purchase one at a meeting. The purpose of the meetings is to practice the tools, which I've done.

I'll still stop by a meeting on occasion, but the program is really in the handbook.

I surmise it would work in tandem with your therapy sessions.

I think you have a strong recovery plan.

Like you, I simply want to be done with alcohol (and I am), & move on (I have), sans any maintenance program.
