How To Help Your Children Heal From the Trauma of Addiction

If you're worried that your kids are suffering from the natural trauma that comes from loving someone suffering from addiction, my interview with Dr. Gowda (who has the most impressive resume and is a child psychologist) teaches us how we can help our children develop into healthy, well- adjusted and successful adults. When children are raised in a household with addiction, there are certain things we, as mothers, need to be aware of. We're their biggest advocate. We need to learn how to fight for them.  Even if you have older children who have left the house, it's never too late to learn the skills that will help your family navigate through addiction. We owe it to our children to become educated about ways we can help them navigate through all their complex feelings of having a parent who drinks too much or suffers from drug addiction (substance use disorder).
