Doing deep work, specifically through psychotherapy, is going to be the hardest thing that her or someone else will ever do in their entire life, but it is the most powerful agent for change.
What if you could tackle addiction without relying on medications? In this episode of 'High Truths on Drugs and Addiction', Dr. Roneet Lev chats with Dr. Marc Azoulay, a psychotherapist from Boulder, Colorado, who specializes in helping people overcome addiction through therapy. Dr. Azoulay dives into the challenges of treating addiction, the role of toxic masculinity, and how psychotherapy can offer a path to recovery.
He shares his unique approach that blends Modern Psychoanalytic and Contemplative Psychotherapy, aiming to break down the unconscious barriers that hold people back. Dr. Azoulay's therapeutic style is anything but conventional; it's irreverent yet deeply impactful. He talks about his own journey with addiction and how therapy helped him develop coping skills that changed his life.
You'll hear about his work with clients who struggle with anxiety, depression, and self-sabotage, and how mindfulness and commitment play crucial roles in their recovery. One of the standout topics is the impact of marijuana on testosterone levels in men and the concept of Jungian archetypes for healthy masculinity. Dr. Azoulay discusses how these archetypes can help men find purpose and establish guiding principles in their lives.
This episode is packed with valuable insights for anyone dealing with addiction or mental health issues. By the end of the episode, you'll be inspired by Dr. Azoulay's message of hope and the transformative power of deep psychotherapeutic work. Whether you're struggling with addiction yourself or supporting someone who is, this conversation offers practical advice and a fresh perspective on recovery.
