Jason Harlen: Navigating Recovery with Empathy and Expertise

There's a lot of temptation out there right now, especially in where we have synthetics, where we have drugs, where we have alcohol, where we have gambling, where that can create a mirage for you and it might make you feel better instantaneously for a short period of time, but eventually it gets you, it grips you and it tears your life apart.
Ever wondered how recovery skills can benefit everyone, not just those struggling with addiction? In this episode of the Illuminate Recovery Podcast, hosts Curt Neider and Shelley Mangum sit down with Jason Harlen, the CEO of Wyoming Valley Alcohol and Drug Services. Harlen brings a wealth of knowledge to the table, discussing the critical role of family dynamics, genetics, and trauma in addiction. But he doesn't stop there; he also delves into prevention strategies and the importance of comprehensive assessments.
One of the standout points is his take on medications like suboxone, Vivitrol, and methadone, which can be game-changers in the recovery process. Harlen also sheds light on the dangers of fentanyl and the broader challenges faced by the addiction recovery industry. Throughout the conversation, his emphasis on empathy and understanding as cornerstones of effective treatment shines through.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to gain a deeper understanding of addiction and mental health recovery, whether you're personally affected or seeking to support a loved one.
