The Genesis Process: A Powerful Approach to Relapse Prevention

The Genesis Process is an evidence- and faith-based relapse prevention program that the Hannah House team has implemented with great success for the past 5 years. It’s proven to be a highly effective tool for helping women who are trying to restore relationships with their children, families and find new healthy communities of support.

As a mandatory part of the Hannah House curriculum, the Genesis Process is designed to help people in recovery place their faith in Jesus and learn to trust again.

The Genesis workbooks consist of ten processes— assessment, false beliefs, identity, life-management skills, life history, support teams, dead ends, déjà vu, accountability, and exodus.

Each process enables participants to uncover false beliefs and replace them with true beliefs found in the Scriptures.

Dona Kabeary, a Genesis Process Coach at the Hannah House shared her experience with the program. “Having the Genesis Process tools has made me a much better coach. I no longer try to rescue the women I’m working with and use their struggles to ignore my own fear and pain. I have much healthier relationships with those I coach thanks to this material. I am not the reactor that I used to be before the Genesis Process, I have learned to trust God, to trust others who are safe, and to identify my fears
and feelings.

Through Scripture memory work, the tools outlined through the Genesis Process, and the work of the Holy Spirit, I am becoming the woman God created me to be and am able to help others in that journey as well! To Him be the glory!”
