Parenting Through Addiction: Casie Fariello's Journey with OPLM

I saw the transformation of these other parents just for me, being vulnerable and looking on the web for something that spoke to me that day and sharing it in a support group, and I saw them transform sooner than I had started to transform, and I knew right then and there back in that I wanted to make this bigger.
Ever wondered how parents cope when their child struggles with addiction? In this episode of the 'Family Addiction Coaching' podcast, Patrick Doyle sits down with Casie Fariello, the Co-Founder and CEO of Other Parents Like Me (OPLM). Casie opens up about her personal journey of parenting a child with addiction and how she found her way to recovery through Community Reinforcement and Family Training (CRAFT).
She shares the transformative power of peer family support and how it helped her welcome her son back home to recover as a family. Casie’s story is not just about her own recovery but also about creating a supportive community for other parents going through similar challenges. OPLM offers a virtual space where parents can connect, learn, and support each other. From weekly speaker talks to financial aid options, the platform ensures that no parent feels alone or unsupported.
This episode also delves into the importance of self-care for parents. Casie emphasizes that taking care of oneself is crucial when dealing with a loved one’s addiction. She highlights how OPLM provides tools and resources to help parents prioritize their well-being. If you’re a parent grappling with your child’s addiction, or if you know someone who is, this episode offers a beacon of hope. It breaks down the stigma surrounding addiction and shows that recovery is possible through multiple pathways.
