Episode 32: How addiction impacts the whole family By Jeff Jones

Our special guest today is Jeff Jones.  Jeff Jones, MA, LPC, CRNC1, is the Founder of The Family Recovery Solution (TFRS) and Family Addiction Engagement Training (FAET).  

The “Start with the Family First” method is a 3-5 year continuum of services, resources, and referrals that starts with education that inspires families to create and maintain conditions inhospitable to active addiction. Then, once your loved one is in recovery, our services expand to a holistic pathway of individual and family healing, as well as self-management of tracking change over time.

Jeff’s presentations offer tools for professionals to learn and incorporate into their services, specifically long-term family recovery engagement and nutritional complements for optimal brain function, so your clients ’ brains function optimally, and they can better incorporate what they are learning from your services. 

Jeff is passionate about decreasing the daily deaths from addiction.

Because of his own upbringing, he sees how families are continually blamed, shamed, and separated from the addiction recovery healing process. He has seen that when family education begins while a loved one is still using drugs or alcohol, the family has an opportunity to practice new cognitive information, which begins customizing their own change process, now and into the future. 

Jeff is part of the Academy for Addiction and Mental Health Nutrition’s community of practitioners trained by Christina Veselak. He is active in her non-profit, Eating Protein Saves Lives, Inc., which is guided by evidence-based research from the 1960s, now buried.  

We start by talking about how Jeff got started in his career.  We talked about how trauma impacts the whole family and the different roles that family members play during the stress and chaos of navigating addiction.  Jeff gives us some practical tools and techniques families can use to improve communication and support.
