Today we talk with Dylan Kersh, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, about our shared experiences in the world of recovery and the oft volatile living conditions  of the Sober Living Environment, or SLE—a home for persons in early recovery from addiction who are matriculating back into every day life.

Next, Dylan will discuss how the modality of attachment theory may answer the question of why so many of us habitually use and abuse drugs and alcohol. Also He will outline varying attachment styles, many of which can be detected in children as young as eighteen months old.
