HELPING YOU NAVIGATE FAMILY ADDICTION
Whole Family Healing Is Possible
It Starts with You
Addiction Impacts The Entire Family
We Know Because We’ve Lived It, Too
Whether you’re struggling to cope with a family member in active addiction,
Supporting someone you love through recovery,
Or grieving the loss of a loved one…
Welcome, you’ve come to the right place.
The disease of drug and alcohol addiction doesn’t affect the addict only—the entire family is impacted, and very often, traumatized as a result.
Likely, we may be unknowingly fueling the very codependent family cycles we’re desperate to see our loved ones break.
To initiate change, all it takes is one family member breaking out of their role & committing to their own healing from addiction trauma.
And like a stone dropping into a still pond, the choice you make today could be the very choice that creates ripples of recovery and healing throughout your entire family.
We’ve done it. Now we’re here to help you do the same.
At Healing Family Addiction, we offer family-focused addiction support that starts with prioritizing your healing.
We are Licensed Clinicians
We are Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists (LMFTs) & Lyle is a Licensed Advanced Alcohol Drug Counselor (LAADC)
We are a Family
As a mother-daughter duo, we understand difficult family dynamics in addiction recovery.
We are Survivors of Family Addiction
We know firsthand how addiction recovery impacts families and what it takes to heal from addiction and rebuild family relationships.
You can’t control your loved one’s addiction, but you can shift your family dynamic…
And it starts with you.
Here’s Your Permission Slip to Heal
It’s Okay to Prioritize Your Needs—And It’s Necessary
The truth is we can’t help our loved ones struggling with addiction recovery if we don’t help ourselves. Family addiction support has a way of bringing everyone down with the ship. By learning the skills for addiction recovery and self-care during addiction, you’ll be in a much better position to provide a lifeline to your loved one when they need it most.
Here’s what the journey can look like….
Release What’s Not Yours to Carry
Stop living in the past, drowning in guilt from addiction, regret from enabling, and resentment in addiction recovery.
Learn how to prioritize your own emotional safety during addiction and let go of excessively caretaking (enabling addiction).
Find freedom from addiction-related stress and monitoring your loved one’s behavior.
Reclaim Your Personal Power
Strengthen your ability to set & maintain healthy boundaries in addiction recovery with your loved one.
Get rooted in addiction-related self-care and find healthy coping strategies for families of addicts.
Stop repeating the same toxic codependent patterns & arguments, and start having productive communication in addiction-affected families.
Experience Renewed Connection
Break out of shame and isolation in addiction recovery and reconnect with friends & loved ones from a place of empowered authenticity.
Make peace with the past and rebuild family relationships after addiction, opening a new chapter as a family.
Navigate the addiction recovery journey hand-in-hand, with renewed connection and hope.
Healing is within reach—let’s take the first step, together…
