Gender-Specific Addiction Treatment: Insights from Holly Wilson of Women's Recovery
“All treatment is not created equally. Women were able to open up in this all women's facility, this women's sober living, was so much more profound and in-depth than what I had experienced in a group setting that was co-ed, and a lot of that was because of the types of stuff we talked about.”
What if the path to addiction recovery isn't one-size-fits-all? In this episode of 'The Chronic Hope Podcast', host Kevin Petersen sits down with Holly Wilson, the founder of Women's Recovery, to explore the benefits of gender-specific treatment.
