Gender-Specific Addiction Treatment: Insights from Holly Wilson of Women's Recovery

All treatment is not created equally. Women were able to open up in this all women's facility, this women's sober living, was so much more profound and in-depth than what I had experienced in a group setting that was co-ed, and a lot of that was because of the types of stuff we talked about.
What if the path to addiction recovery isn't one-size-fits-all? In this episode of 'The Chronic Hope Podcast', host Kevin Petersen sits down with Holly Wilson, the founder of Women's Recovery, to explore the benefits of gender-specific treatment. Holly brings her wealth of experience to the table, sharing the unique hurdles women face in their recovery journeys and why a tailored approach can make all the difference. From early intervention to family involvement, they cover it all.
Holly also dives into the critical role of understanding trauma in addiction recovery and how her experiential and research-based models are designed to address these needs. One of the standout points is the advantage of women-only sober living facilities, which Holly argues provide a safer and more supportive environment for recovery. This episode is packed with practical advice and heartfelt stories, making it a must-listen for professionals in the field and anyone interested in the nuances of addiction recovery.
