Jesse Tucker on Healing Relationships and Embracing Recovery

I think that, even though you got called out on it, if he would have used my name instead of yours, it would have been true.
In this episode of Positive Recovery MD, Dr. Jason Powers and Julie DeNofa welcome Jesse Tucker, a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a deep passion for addiction recovery. Jesse's journey from pediatric psychiatry to founding Carencia, an outpatient mental health and addiction clinic, is nothing short of inspiring. He brings a unique perspective on how mental health intertwines with addiction and the vital role relationships play in the recovery process.
Jesse shares personal anecdotes, including meeting his wife while working in pediatric psychiatry, and highlights the often-overlooked issue of fractured attachment relationships in addiction treatment. He delves into the spiritual principles of recovery, emphasizing the power of vulnerability and self-compassion. Jesse also touches on the importance of psychotherapy and how it can be a game-changer in treating addiction.
The conversation doesn't shy away from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on mental health, stressing the need for more acceptance and understanding. Jesse's insights into post-traumatic growth and resilience offer hope and practical advice for those navigating their own recovery journeys. By focusing on positive interventions and daily habits, Jesse and the hosts encourage listeners to prioritize growth and progress over perfection. Tune in for an engaging discussion that promises to leave you feeling hopeful and empowered.
