Addiction is a long, hard road to travel both for the individual struggling to recover, and for their loved ones, especially during the holiday season when the pressures of the holidays often stem from the desire for things to be \u201cperfect\u201d \u2013 the way things \u201cshould be\u201d this time of year. But a major trigger for pain in the holiday season is dealing with a family member\u2019s addiction. And for those struggling with the addiction, the never ending cycle of guilt and shame they may experience can be overwhelming. Join Dr. Sutherland and her guests J.J. Widener \u2013 Certified Advanced Alcohol & Drug Counselor, and Conrad Valcy \u2013 Master Addictions Counselor as they discuss these issues, and provide helpful perspective and resources.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
