Family First: How Loved Ones Shape the Recovery Journey

Episode Overview

  • Family Wellness Week program designed to support residents and their families through in-person and online experiences
  • Three-pronged approach involving webinars, on-campus sessions, and online delivery
  • Focus on empowering families with coping strategies and emotional management techniques
  • Emphasis on mutual support and validation within the family system
  • Primary goal is to create a safe and regulated environment for families
The entire family system is needing the support and each can support each other. So that's our primary goal is for them to have that experience that they are validated, that they're good enough exactly the way they are, that everybody's trying their best.
Imagine navigating the choppy waters of recovery without a support system. It's daunting, right? In this episode of 'Let's Talk: Mind, Body, Spirit', Dr. Vicki Loyer sheds light on the vital role families play in the healing process. She introduces us to Family Wellness Week at Sierra Tucson, a unique initiative designed to bridge the gap between residents and their loved ones.
The program isn't just a series of lectures; it's an immersive experience with webinars, on-campus sessions, and online resources. Dr. Loyer emphasizes how crucial it is for families to be involved from day one, providing a 'soft landing place' for those in treatment. This episode offers a heartfelt look at how effective communication and mutual support can transform the recovery journey, making it a collective effort rather than a solitary struggle.
Whether you're supporting someone in recovery or seeking insights for your own journey, this episode is packed with practical advice and emotional wisdom.
