The Ripple Effect of Addiction

In this episode, I talk to Chelsea McCarty, licensed professional counselor, licensed clinical alcohol and drug counselor, and owner of Reflections Counseling & Wellness about how substance use disorder can effect the lives of family and friends from childhood through adulthood. We'll explore how the family dynamics shift with the presence of addiction and how that impacts relationships and roles thereafter.
