Loving Someone with an Addiction

Loving Someone with an Addiction Is your life being affected by someone else’s addiction? This workshop is designed to help parents, significant others, family members or friends learn how to reach out for help, develop healthy new behaviors and detach with love if necessary. During this time group support will be encouraged to help one another make changes that are necessary for healing. Codependency and enabling are two major behaviors that will be addressed. Discussions will focus on how being around those with addictions affects oneself emotionally, physically and spiritually. Learning to change unhealthy relationships is a starting point to helping oneself and your loved one.
