Curious about how others navigate their sobriety journey? This episode of 'Healing Addictions' offers a deep dive into the relationship illness of codependency, often considered the root of many addictions. Fr. Christophe Lepoutre, an Orthodox priest and psychotherapist, shares his insights on how generations of addiction and dysfunctional family dynamics contribute to codependency.
With a blend of traditional therapeutic approaches and Orthodox spiritual practices, he discusses how this learned behaviour affects one's ability to maintain healthy relationships and suggests ways to break free from its cycle.
