Trauma, healing and recovery: The power of relationships
In the past, Lindzey relied on drugs to avoid her emotions and the trauma she's experienced.
"My whole family goes straight to substances," she said. "I'm not used to dealing with my emotions. For years, I never let myself experience them."
With coaching, trauma therapy and journaling, Roule utilizes a range of tools to further her recovery.

Understanding the goals of loved ones
"Less worry about son's health."
"Learn how to support without being consumed by the problem."
"To have a healthy, functional family."
When we look at the goals of our loved one coaching members, we know they want to find healthy ways to support someone in their lives with addiction. Most often, they don't want to give up on their family member. They just need help helping.

Q: My husband drinks too much but refuses to get help. What can I do?
A: The techniques we help loved ones develop are based on principles of rewarding positive change and attachment, rather than punishing and detachment. For example, you can try using positive reinforcement when your husband cuts back on his drinking or engages in other healthy behaviors.
