There are appropriate times, for appropriate reasons, where you might want to use your own experience to make a connection, a personal connection with the clients and like an abstract connection about the topic for them, so they can say, oh okay, I see what you're talking about, and then they can then go on and then use it for themselves, and if done properly, that's fine.
Imagine being in a recovery program and hearing a personal story from a staff member that resonates deeply with your own struggles. It can be incredibly powerful, but when is it appropriate for professionals to share their own experiences? This episode of 'ROACHE on RECOVERY' dives into this delicate topic, exploring the do's and don'ts of staff sharing personal stories in substance abuse treatment and recovery.
The hosts, along with licensed professionals, weigh in on the complexities of using personal anecdotes in a therapeutic setting. They discuss when it can help build trust and make abstract concepts more relatable, and when it might cross professional boundaries or become counterproductive. You'll hear real-life experiences and perspectives that shed light on this nuanced issue, making it clear that the timing, context, and subject matter all play crucial roles.
Whether you're a professional in the field or someone navigating recovery, this episode offers valuable insights into creating a supportive environment while maintaining professional integrity. Tune in to learn how personal stories can be both a bridge and a barrier in the journey to recovery.
