Families of Addicts - Building a Healthy Support System

Families of addicts at The Recovery Place learn how to build a healthy support system that strengthens the recovery process. Help for families of drug addicts is important, since no member of the family is left untouched by the destructive addictive behavior. Family roles in addiction develop over many years. In order for the addicts to receive healthy support from the families, family focused therapies are crucial. Families of addicts learn to understand their roles, and are then able to more positively help their loved ones during the recovery process. Some members of our treatment team have experienced addictions first hand. Pamela, a lead clinician at The Recovery Place, has been clean for 21 years. Her empathy and understanding make her a powerful support for both addicts and the families of addicts.
Thanks for posting this. Families need help to cope with their loved ones' addictions. Recovery Place is one such place. Check out Claudia Black's website for more on the Family Illness of Addiction.

From a family of addiction to my own children's addiction, family may be all the addict has left.
Keep them coming & I'll keep watching!
Thank you from a loving daughter, sister, and mother of an addict.
