Ken Seeley on How Consequences Shape Long-Term Recovery

Treatment's about dealing with the pain that they've been masking with the drugs. So they stay compliant and that's why they have that long success.
Can setting firm boundaries really help someone break free from addiction? In this episode of 'Recovery Unscripted', host David Condos sits down with renowned interventionist Ken Seeley to unpack this intriguing question. With years of experience guiding families through the maze of addiction recovery, Seeley shares his perspective on why consistent consequences are vital for rewiring the brain to resist addictive urges.
But it's not just about rules and penalties; Seeley emphasizes the importance of empathy and understanding in this delicate process. He discusses how trauma often underpins addiction and why addressing these deeper issues is crucial for effective treatment. Seeley's approach isn't just about the individual battling addiction; he stresses that addiction impacts the whole family. By involving loved ones in the recovery journey, he believes a supportive environment can be created that fosters long-term sobriety.
This episode also delves into the pre-intervention process and the necessity for ongoing support. For anyone navigating the complexities of addiction recovery, Seeley's insights offer a compassionate yet practical roadmap to lasting change.
