Dee-Dee Stout on CRAFT and Harm Reduction: Fresh Strategies for Parents

I wish we would do things in a more holistic way and I wish we would actually look at why.
What if traditional treatment methods aren't working for your child? That's the pressing question tackled in this episode of 'Hopestream for Parenting', hosted by Brenda Zane. Brenda sits down with Dee-Dee Stout, an influential figure in substance use treatment, to discuss the potential of CRAFT (Community Reinforcement and Family Training) and harm reduction techniques. Dee-Dee, who is in long-term recovery herself, brings a wealth of experience as an author, coach, speaker, and professor.
This episode is a treasure trove of practical advice and real-life examples for parents struggling to find effective ways to support their children through addiction. Dee-Dee dives into her own family trauma and the shortcomings of existing therapeutic options, offering a candid look at why alternative methods might be the answer.
The conversation covers everything from the stages of change to the nuances of motivational interviewing, and even includes a role-play scenario featuring a worried mom and a child using street Xanax. This episode is perfect for parents who are looking for fresh approaches to improve communication at home and support their child's journey towards recovery. Tune in for insights that could make a real difference in your family's life.
