Episode 30 | Unpacking & Understanding Addiction with Emily-Christine Lowe, LPCA
from Psych Talk · host Dr. Jessica Rabon
In today’s episode of Psych Talk I speak with Emily-Christine Lowe, LPCA, NCC about addiction. Addiction is something that I am not very knowledgeable about given the population I work with, so I was excited to talk with Emily-Christine about her knowledge and expertise in the field. Emily-Christine discusses what addiction is, as well as some misconceptions about addiction. She discusses how addiction goes beyond the traditional drugs and alcohol that we think of and how addiction can show up in people’s lives in other ways. Emily-Christine also has a strong interest and knowledge base in trauma and, therefore, we discuss how trauma plays a role in the development and maintenance of addiction. Further, Emily-Christine provides insights and advice to anyone struggling with addiction or for those who have a loved one going through addiction on how to seek out help.
