Welcome to the podcast! Today I am delighted to be joined by Ginny Mills, a specialist in the field of addiction treatment who runs Parenting Through Addiction, the other PTA. An affordable, accessible, convenient online way for parents to learn about substance use and how to address it at all stages on the journey.   Ginny Mills is a Licensed Processional Counselor Supervisor and a Licensed Clinical Addiction Specialist . She is also a parent of a daughter in recovery, recovery advocate and believer that a full life in recovery can be a reality!    Ginny has been counseling with adults, adolescents, and parents and leading relapse prevention groups for over 25 years. She is the founder of Full Life Counseling & Recovery since its inception in 2008. Recognizing just how many parents lack access to hope, education, consultation and support, she developed Parenting Through Addiction: The Other PTA to meet that need for families everywhere.   Through her membership website she offers free and paid plans, offering education and consultation about addiction, as well as access to a community of concerned and loving parents. PTA is a reliable source of information, a preventive measure, and an alternative to treatment clinics. Parenting Through Addiction allows us to seek guidance before our children are ready to face their troubles. We don't have to wait until our loved ones have hit rock bottom before we can begin to help them!   Full show notes available at - lourdesviado.com/womenindepth
