This is not about defining who is at fault... the entire family being committed to this recovery and the building up of the structure of your healthy communication and what you want your family to be in this new life of recovery.
Families play a pivotal role in both addiction and recovery, and this episode of 'The Sober Therapist SoberSoul Recovery Podcast' dives deep into this complex dynamic. Lynn Matti, a seasoned mental health therapist, unpacks the profound insights from Stephanie Brown's book, 'The Alcoholic Family in Recovery'. The book outlines four distinct stages that both the person struggling with addiction and their family must navigate to achieve lasting recovery.
Lynn provides her professional perspective on these stages, emphasizing the critical need for open communication and mutual support within the family unit. She discusses the barriers often faced, such as defiance and stubbornness, and offers practical advice on breaking down these walls. By focusing on the entire family's commitment to recovery, Lynn highlights how crucial it is for everyone involved to seek help and develop healthy communication skills.
This episode is not just informative but also deeply supportive and hopeful, offering valuable guidance for families dealing with addiction. Whether you're directly affected or supporting a loved one, you'll find Lynn's compassionate approach both enlightening and encouraging.
