Great to meet you
Marilyn White founded Realization Center over 40 years ago to fulfill her dream of helping the underserved population struggling with addiction. In the 1980s these individuals included the gay and lesbian population, many of whom were diagnosed HIV positive and unable to access treatment without stigma and shame. She has worked with thousands of addicts and devoted her career to acting as both a champion and an advocate for those struggling with issues of addiction.

Evidence-based approaches
12-step facilitation
Twelve-Step Facilitation. Helps you engage with mutual-aid fellowships (GA, AA, SMART) as a recovery community rather than a solo grind.
Group therapy
Group Therapy. A small facilitated circle where people working on similar struggles practice naming what is hard, hearing themselves in others, and learning skills together. The room is the medicine.
Family systems
Family Systems work. Brings the people closest to you into the recovery picture, since urges and relationships rarely live in separate boxes.
