The importance of belonging to a community in recovery.
Ever wondered how therapy and 12-step programs can complement each other in recovery? Vince and Jeanna dive into this fascinating topic with Dr. Camila Williams. As a 'Perfectionist in Recovery' and a mother of three, Dr. Williams brings a wealth of personal and professional experience to the table. This episode is packed with practical advice on how to navigate the complex relationship between sponsors, sponsees, and therapists.
You'll learn about the 'green light', 'yellow light', and 'red light' behaviors that indicate when it's time to call in a professional. Dr. Williams also introduces the Seeking Safety Program, designed to help people reduce trauma and substance abuse symptoms without requiring total abstinence. She emphasizes the importance of community in recovery and offers insights into identifying depression and grief.
If you're looking for ways to challenge negative thoughts and understand when professional help is needed, this episode is a must-listen. It's an enlightening conversation that offers hope and practical tools for anyone on the journey to sobriety.
