Description

Family members desire to see their loved one recover, but so often what they intend to be caring can slip into controlling which actually hinders the positive aspects of family involvement. This in turn interferes with the positive impacts of their addicted loved one experiencing the natural consequences of their actions. In this presentation, Bill and Linda Woodbury provide relevant and practical information for clinicians working with the family members of a person with an addiction. We will explore how to address the family’s recovery from a strengths-based perspective that also recognizes the trauma of active addiction. Such an approach can aid in rebuilding trust and nurturing healthy interdependence among family members, which can bridge the recovery gap and help to grow a healthier, more resilient family.
