Blending Faith and Therapy: A Fresh Take on Addiction Recovery

Beyond the physical, individuals are left emotionally and spiritually handicapped, and most fellowships agree that that's not enough.
What if your path to sobriety could be both spiritual and scientific? In this introductory episode of 'Healing Addictions: The Recovery Continues', Fr. Christophe Lepoutre offers a unique blend of Orthodox Christian spirituality and traditional psychotherapy to guide listeners through their recovery journey. As the executive director of the Fellowship of the Inexhaustible Cup, Fr. Christophe draws on a wealth of wisdom from the saints and the church's rich traditions to support those struggling with addiction.
He explains how this podcast builds on his original series, 'Healing Addictions: The Orthodox Method of Treatment', by combining step recovery methods with the spiritual teachings of the Orthodox Church. The aim is to help individuals achieve not just physical sobriety, but emotional and spiritual healing as well. Fr. Christophe encourages group interaction and hopes to address universal questions from listeners.
This episode also highlights the importance of community support and spiritual intercession, invoking the Holy Mother Theotokos, known as the inexhaustible cup, who dispenses miracles on behalf of the faithful. If you're looking for a holistic approach to addiction recovery that harmonizes faith and therapy, this podcast might be just what you need.
