Greetings all. I wanted to let you know that I have added a new, two-part video that I did specifically for families who are struggling with a loved one's addiction and associated trauma. Both parts (1 & 2) are included in this video. It is longer (a total of 1 hour and 15 minutes). If you are a family member of a loved one struggling with addiction and associated trauma, work with families who struggle with addiction and trauma, or you know a family who would benefit from this video, please forward it to them. Also feel free to forward it to any groups you are a member of that might benefit from it.
Thanks (as always)!
