Nobody yet masters this overnight or even in the Four Or Five Days that they're in the family and parent and sibling program.
Imagine facing the challenge of addiction, not just as an individual, but as a family. In this episode of 'Let's Talk Addiction & Recovery', host William C. Moyers sits down with therapists Sarah Schwalbach and Julia Edelman to explore the vital role of family support in addiction recovery.

They discuss practical strategies for setting healthy boundaries, a crucial step for any family member looking to support their loved one while maintaining their own well-being. The conversation touches on the grieving process and the importance of acceptance, acknowledging that each family's journey is unique.

If you're navigating the complexities of addiction within your family, this episode offers a wealth of practical advice and emotional support. Tune in to discover how you can rebuild relationships, set boundaries, and find hope in the journey towards recovery.
