About The Series
Relapse is highly common when it comes to addiction. Researchers estimate that more than 80% of individuals will relapse in the first year of addiction treatment.
However, according to double Board Certified psychiatrist, Dr. Domenick Sportelli and certified ICF life coach, Andrea Arlington, relapse is part of the process of finding and maintaining sobriety. It is the rule, not the exception.
With that in mind, understanding how to handle relapse without provoking or isolating your loved one is a crucial and inevitable factor in finding full recovery.
In this comprehensive sit-down session between Andrea, Dr. Dom, and our host Kyle, you’ll learn Andrea’s key strategies for helping a loved one through each stage of relapse: from leaving the rehabilitation center in the first place, through to post-relapse recovery. She and Dr. Dom discuss how to empower your loved one to work through relapse and come out on the other side stronger and closer to sustaining sobriety.
Not every step on the journey toward sobriety feels like progress. There may be obstacles along the way, but there are treatment solutions and family strategies that can help loved ones get back on their feet and maintain long-term recovery. This series provides the expertise that can help those struggling with addiction, and their families, put their best foot forward.
