Free TTE Tool - The Family Experience with Addiction
Introducing a new free Taking the Escalator infographic designed to support family addiction discussions and psychoeducation groups.
“The Family Experience with Addiction” explores some of the common emotional reactions families experience when supporting a loved one with a substance use disorder — including confusion, hypervigilance, emotional exhaustion, hope/disappointment cycles, boundary struggles, and learning healthier ways to cope.
Rather than presenting families as “in denial,” this resource takes a more compassionate and realistic approach: These are human reactions to chronic stress, fear, uncertainty, and emotional pain.
Great for:
Family groups
Psychoeducation
Early intervention
Co-occurring disorder groups
Parent support discussions
