November 18, 2021 Why Addiction Is A Family Disease, Ft. Courtney Hulse, LMFT
Why is Addiction Considered a ‘Family Disease?’ This week, Liana & Sam are joined by Courtney Hulse. Courtney is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and is the Program Manager at Mountainside Treatment Center in Huntington, NY. In this episode, we discuss: How the brain system is impacted for each member of the family when a loved one suffers from addiction and answering the question of why the family would strongly benefit from engaging in their own therapy while their loved one enters treatment/recovery. Courtney elaborates on the importance of family in a person's recovery and how to avoid it hindering recovery, and lastly, Family Systems Theory, and how Courtney works within this scope with the families she works with. We’ve all learned addiction doesn’t discriminate. This episode will guide anyone on how to best support a loved one struggling with addiction.
