Victoria Herbert on Gender-Specific Addiction Recovery at New Directions for Women

Recovery is a process, a lifelong process, absolutely for any family member that might be listening. We got to encourage the family members or the spouse that, regardless of what decisions they make or what happens in The Next Few Days, few years, whatever, this is what you can do to take care of yourself, to have boundaries so you don't have to continue to live in the disease without taking the substances.
How do you create a safe space for women battling addiction? In this episode of Recovery Coast to Coast Radio, Neil Scott sits down with Victoria Herbert, the Intake Leader at New Directions for Women in Costa Mesa, CA. This pioneering program is one of the oldest and most successful gender-specific addiction treatment centers in the United States.
Victoria sheds light on the unique challenges women face in their recovery journeys and how New Directions for Women tailors its approach to meet these needs. She emphasizes the critical role of family support and explains how their nonprofit model helps remove barriers to treatment. If you or someone you care about is navigating the path to sobriety, this episode offers practical insights and hope from a leader in the field.
