The Truth About Addiction with Candace Plattor
Manage episode 343117739 series 2976935
Do you have fears that your child is addicted to drugs, alcohol, or even social media? The fact is, in today’s society, there are so many social obstacles for kids to face than many of us had to when we were younger.
Join Michelle and her guest, Addictions Therapist Candace Plattor, as they delve into the world of addiction, pressure that results from unrealistic social expectations on how to look and behave, and the physical and psychological effects that any addiction can have on a child.
“If you do sense that there was a problem, if you think there's a problem, then there probably is. Please trust yourself and don't give up. Don’t think that it's so overwhelming that you can't handle it.” – Candace Plattor
Candace Plattor is an Addictions Therapist in private practice, where she specializes in working with the family and other loved ones of people who are struggling with addiction, in her unique and signature Family Addiction Counselling and Therapy Program. As a former opioid addict with almost 35 years clean and sober, Candace has learned that overcoming addiction is a family condition: everyone in the family is affected by addiction and everyone needs to heal. For more than three decades, she has been helping both addicts and their loved ones understand their dysfunctional behaviours and make healthier life choices.
The results Candace achieves have been astounding: addicts stop using and families regain their lives from the ravages of addiction. Not only has her success led to a waiting list of clients but she is a sought after leader in the field of addictions. As the developer of the LoveWithBoundaries Family Addiction Counselling and Therapy method, Candace now works with her team of top counsellors and coaches, helping both the families and their addicts break the devastating cycle of addiction for good.
