Invitational Interventions: A Compassionate Approach with Dr. Judith Landau

Addiction is a slow form of suicide and if we can keep the addicted individuals alive long enough, they don't need to die.
What if interventions could be compassionate and non-confrontational? Dr. Judith Landau, a seasoned expert in addiction and trauma recovery, joins host Mary Woods on 'One Hour AT A Time' to discuss this very concept. In this enlightening episode, Dr. Landau introduces the idea of invitational intervention, a method that focuses on love, fear, worry, and guilt experienced by families dealing with addiction.
This approach aims to empower both individuals and their families by reaffirming their inherent strengths and resilience, often overshadowed by the struggles of addiction. Dr. Landau shares her extensive research and experiences, highlighting the importance of family, culture, and spirituality in fostering long-term recovery. She also delves into the notion of addiction as a form of resilience and discusses the protective roles families and cultural ties play in mitigating risk. The episode wraps up with a poignant reminder from Dr.
Landau: 'Addiction is a slow form of suicide, and if we can keep the addicted individuals alive long enough, they don't need to die'. Tune in for an insightful conversation that redefines intervention and underscores the power of familial and cultural support in the recovery journey.
