Why Women's Only Treatment Matters: A Chat with Dana Taylor

Women need a person who can hold space for them.
What makes women's only treatment so crucial? In this episode of 'The Party Wreckers', hosts Matt Brown and Sam Davis sit down with Dana Taylor from Onsite Workshops to dive into the unique needs of women in recovery. Dana sheds light on how gender-specific environments can offer a safe haven for women, especially those with trauma histories. She emphasizes the importance of being trauma-informed and creating spaces where women feel truly seen and accepted.
The conversation also explores self-sabotaging behaviors common in addiction and the deep personal work necessary for recovery. For families seeking help, the episode offers valuable insights into finding the right interventionist, particularly for cases involving sexual trauma or abuse. Dana, Matt, and Sam stress the need for interventionists who can create a compassionate and safe environment for women. They also touch on the challenges of traveling for treatment and the delicate balance between family care and individual care.
The episode wraps up with a discussion about Painted Desert Recovery, a women's only treatment facility, highlighting its role in maintaining a safe and reputable space for recovery. Whether you're directly affected by addiction or supporting someone who is, this episode provides a compassionate look at the importance of gender-specific treatment options. It's an eye-opener on how tailored care can make a significant difference in the recovery journey.
