Ever wondered how clinical psychology can play a pivotal role in addiction recovery? In this episode of AllBetter, host Joe Van Wie chats with Joseph Reichmann Psy.D., a clinical psychologist with a rich background in both military and civilian healthcare. Dr. Reichmann takes us through his journey, from earning his doctorate at Marywood University to serving in the Navy and eventually working with veterans at a VA Medical Center outside Philadelphia.
His story is one of dedication, resilience, and a commitment to helping those grappling with severe mental illness and substance use disorders. Dr. Reichmann shares eye-opening experiences from his time at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center and Naval Medical Center Portsmouth, where he worked closely with service members dealing with addiction. He discusses the unique challenges faced by military personnel and the importance of tailored treatment plans. But it's not just about the military; Dr.

Throughout the conversation, you'll hear about the significance of collaboration, the need for self-care among healthcare providers, and the power of acceptance in the recovery journey.
