The importance of bridging the gap between psychological and addiction treatment
The podcast highlights the importance of bridging the gap between traditional psychological treatment and addiction treatment. The speaker emphasizes the need for a paradigm shift in how we approach addictive processes, urging clinicians to view these behaviors as attempts by parts to help, rather than as moral failings. The focus is on listening to and understanding the intentions behind these parts, rather than simply following rigid treatment plans. By creating a bridge between the two worlds, clinicians can offer more compassionate and effective support to individuals struggling with addictive behaviors.
