FOR FAMILY MEMBERS OF LOVED ONES STRUGGLING WITH ADDICTION
Are you struggling because you care about someone you believe is abusing substances or is addicted?
Do you feel like you're on a roller coaster with little power to get off of it?
Do you want to feel better and help, but just don't know how?
Family Recovery is about education, support and moving forward with what you can do, and what can help you, and your loved one. It is about the ways of healing, transformation and hope. It's about getting out of the problem and seeking solution.
This journey is bumpy and we stumble. The bigger issue, though, is not knowing how to find your footing and re-set a new direction. It's so painful to believe there's nothing you can do, that your loved one is lost to you. There is much you can do.
You can restore connection with your loved one, you can communicate your love, and you can develop the skills to help in ways that are helpful, and that contribute to recovery. You have choices.
Family Recovery Coaching includes education, and a solution-oriented approach with evidence based practices to find the right path for you, so that you can move forward with confidence and hope. You gain knowledge and skills that can take you off the roller coaster. With coaching and support, we identify what can work for your particular situation.
Research shows that when family members focus on their own healing and recovery, they become the best chance for their loved one to choose and maintain their own. Only one person needs to begin this process. I invite you to be that one. You are your loved one's best chance at recovery.

"Indeed my life is mellower due to you and your course."
"I have been an Alanoner for a long time but have to say Joanne's class has added so much to my life, I can barely explain it. It brought all those years of meetings, counseling, etc. together. Thanx Joanne again."
"Thank you Joanne. You have helped me so much to question my thoughts and beliefs. I have been living in such a hopeless dark place and doing this work with you has helped me re-think everything."
"It’s like coming out of the darkness and into the light. It’s changing all my relationships."
"I got my momentum since I'm in this class. I'm in the best place I've been in 4-5 years. I have my self-esteem back and I'm not depressed anymore."
"It’s really helping me to connect with my son, see how beautiful he is, and relieve my worrying. I'm not as angry anymore, I'm accepting him more, and feel less tension between us. Thank you Joanne!"
