Family Matters: Expert Advice on Addiction and Codependency with Jay Staples

I think it's critical that you see a therapist on a regular, and regular is Weekly or Every Other Week, not once a month.
Ever felt lost trying to navigate the choppy waters of addiction and codependency within your family? In this episode of The Chronic Hope Podcast, host Kevin Petersen teams up with Jay Staples to tackle some of the toughest family-related questions. This isn't just any chat; it's a weekly Facebook Live event where Kevin and Jay share their expertise and offer practical advice to those in need.
They dive into the importance of regular therapy sessions, emphasizing how weekly or bi-weekly appointments can make a world of difference compared to monthly visits. They also shed light on how childhood trauma often plays a significant role in addiction and codependency, providing a deeper understanding of these complex issues. But that's not all. Kevin and Jay explore the double-edged sword of service work, discussing how it can be incredibly beneficial but also potentially harmful if not approached correctly.
And in a surprising twist, they address the glaring lack of marijuana treatment centers despite its legalization in some states, highlighting a critical gap in addiction treatment services. This episode is packed with valuable insights and actionable advice, making it a must-listen for anyone grappling with addiction and codependency within their family.
So, if you're looking for expert guidance and heartfelt support, tune in to The Chronic Hope Podcast and join Kevin and Jay as they navigate these challenging topics together.
