The point being is, when people keep trying to improve and they keep trying to stabilize in their recovery, and they keep trying to define their recovery for themselves, they will ultimately be successful.
What if recovery isn't a one-size-fits-all journey? In this episode of 'Chasing Heroine', Jeannine and Narcan Nate sit down with Joe Schrank, a clinical social worker who brings a fresh perspective to addiction treatment. Known for his advocacy in harm reduction, Joe believes that the path to recovery should be as unique as the individual walking it.
He challenges the traditional 12-step programs and pushes for more diverse and inclusive treatment options that cater to the varied needs of those struggling with addiction. Joe’s insights are not just theoretical; he’s also a co-host of 'Rehab Confidential' and a frequent contributor to major publications like the Huffington Post and Daily Beast.
His approach is all about removing the stigma and shame often associated with addiction, promoting open conversations within communities, and advocating for healthcare reforms that support better treatment for dual diagnoses of addiction and mental health disorders. Throughout the episode, Joe emphasizes the power of individualized treatment plans and highlights the crucial role families can play in supporting their loved ones through recovery.
If you're curious about alternative methods to addiction recovery or know someone who could benefit from a fresh perspective, this episode is a must-listen.
