The Myth of Self-Help: Supporting Your Child's Addiction Together

You can invite change in your child and create space for them to decide they want to change. We're constantly told that our kids won't change unless they want to, but we're rarely told that we can create favorable conditions for them to want to change. You can help your child.
Ever been told that you can only help yourself when it comes to dealing with your child's addiction? Heather Ross is here to challenge that notion. In this eye-opening episode of 'Living With Your Child's Addiction', Heather shares her personal story of struggling with outdated methods that only pushed her daughter further away.
She opens up about the transformative power of the CRAFT approach—a compassionate and collaborative method that helped her create a nurturing environment for her daughter to want to change. Heather dives into how setting the right conditions can inspire change in your child, all while healing the family dynamic. Whether you're feeling helpless or just looking for new strategies, this episode offers a fresh perspective on how to support your child through their addiction journey.
