Whenever a person is dealing with addiction, disease, a mental illness, or any other trauma, it not only affects that person, but their entire family system as well.
Treatment often focuses on the individual, but every member of a family needs tools and attention to fully process the trauma in order for treatment to be successful.
Dr. Amy Reichenbach helps individuals and families work through change and trauma and understand how it affects everyone involved.
She discusses the importance of including a person’s entire support system in a treatment plan and how doing so can help treatment efforts succeed.
