What is the secondary trauma affect on a family member who is living with an active addict?  What does the family need to do to heal?  What if the family chooses not to change after the addict gets sober? Today Dr. Mike Barnes, Chief Clinical Officer at the Foundry Treatment Center in Steamboat Springs share his eye-opening research about the family surrounding the loved one with an addiction.  

We discuss in detail the root of family enmeshment, enabling and overinvolvement in the addict's life that may serve to keep all members of the family stuck in a trauma narrative.

How then does the whole family move toward freeing themselves to heal?  Listen in while Dr. Barnes shares the 5 questions that bring about healing change.
