The irony in all of it is that it's about extremes, right, and we're trying to help people with moderation and balance.
Imagine walking into a buffet, where you're free to pick and choose what appeals to you. Now, picture applying that concept to addiction treatment. In this episode, Elizabeth Jorgensen and Sarah Allen Benton, affectionately known as The Sober Chicks, take a refreshing look at recovery with their 'buffet style' approach. These licensed therapists use humor and empathy to discuss how traditional addiction treatments often lean towards rigid, all-or-nothing thinking.
Instead, they advocate for a more personalized journey where individuals select the methods and tools that resonate most with them. From dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) to cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), they cover various therapeutic techniques that can be mixed and matched according to personal needs. The episode also emphasizes the importance of self-discovery and finding supportive, healthy adults in one's community for long-term success.
Whether you're in recovery, supporting someone who is, or just curious about different approaches to sobriety, this episode offers a refreshing perspective that's both practical and uplifting.
