What drives someone to dedicate their life to helping others recover from addiction? Scott Kelley, a seasoned professional from Regard Recovery, shares his journey on this episode of the Illuminate Recovery Podcast. Starting with a deeply personal experience—the loss of his father at 18—Scott's path led him to pursue a degree in Psychology and a career in the recovery industry. He discusses how this pivotal moment sparked his passion for therapy and recovery work.
Scott dives into motivational interviewing, a technique he finds invaluable for fostering change in those struggling with addiction. He also touches on the concept of 'coopetition' in treatment, where collaboration between competing organizations can lead to better outcomes for patients. Evidence-based practices are another cornerstone of his approach, ensuring that the methods used are backed by research and proven to be effective. But it’s not just about the clinical side of things.
Scott emphasizes the importance of family involvement in the recovery process, highlighting how crucial it is for loved ones to be part of the journey. Peer support also plays a significant role, offering a sense of community and shared experience that can be incredibly healing. Throughout the conversation, hosts Curt Neider and Shelley Mangum create a space where Scott’s insights shine, making complex topics accessible and engaging.
Whether you’re in recovery, supporting someone who is, or just curious about the field, this episode offers valuable perspectives on what it takes to foster lasting change and personal fulfillment.
