Guiding Families: How CRAFT Helps Loved Ones Seek Treatment

I would see this time and time again where we would work with juveniles and we would try really really hard to get them to go to inpatient treatment or residential. And this is where we really see that if we're not working with the family, we're doing a huge disservice to everyone involved.
Imagine feeling powerless as addiction tightens its grip on a loved one. Many families face this heartbreaking reality, but there’s hope in the form of the CRAFT model. In this episode of 'Families Navigating Addiction & Recovery', Jessica Triplett, a seasoned trainer in the CRAFT approach, shares how this evidence-based practice can be a game-changer for families in crisis. Unlike traditional intervention methods that often rely on ultimatums and surprise confrontations, CRAFT focuses on harm reduction and positive reinforcement.
Jessica explains how families can use specific strategies to encourage their loved ones to enter and stay in treatment. She also delves into the importance of connection and gradual progress, offering practical advice for defusing potential outbursts and creating a supportive environment. With over a decade of experience in the addiction field, Jessica’s insights are both professional and deeply personal, making this episode a must-listen for anyone seeking a compassionate and effective approach to recovery.
