You know, all you have to do is just have them do what they normally do and the medication works on them and they just stare at you completely lost, I mean like a deer in the headlights.
Imagine a recovery path that doesn’t rely on traditional 12-step programs. In this episode of Safe Recovery, Monica Richardson chats with Matthew Leichter, the visionary behind The Goodman Approach. This groundbreaking outpatient Harm Reduction clinic in Tennessee tackles addiction and habitual behaviors, obesity, eating disorders, chronic disease, mental health issues, and even recovery from occultism.
Leichter's clinic operates on five key recommendations: therapy for mental illness and family issues, a supportive network of friends, vocational rehabilitation, psychiatric medication, and general medical treatment. The goal? To create centers across the US that offer social support networks, professional group therapy, vocational rehab, and medical guidance. This episode dives into the challenges of convincing people to believe in a cure for addiction and the role of positive reinforcement in recovery.
It’s a must-listen for anyone seeking innovative and accessible treatment options.
