LPP Podcast Zach Rhoads

Dr. Stanton Peele and Zach Rhoads answer the following frequently asked question: Is LPP a "trauma informed program"? 

They offer a definition of “trauma” in several contexts.

Then they discuss differences between traumatic events and adverse conditions in life.

Peele and Rhoads also consider what it means to be trauma informed versus believing trauma is responsible for addiction. 

And, of course, the hosts explain how all of this information applies to their work with clients in the Online Life Process Program.

Rewrite your life story. The Life Process Program takes clients through a

staged review of their life stories, focusing first on mistakes, continuing to

how they might have acted differently to avoided these pitfalls, to

reconceiving their life stories to focus on positives, and finally to projecting

their life stories forward into positive, life-fulfilling narratives.

In today's episode we incorporate LPP exercises and examples of Zach’s work with children, including sample

maps he develops for each child,  to show how to put these

steps into action in your own life and the lives of your children and other loved ones.

Similarly, examples of coaching feedback to LPP clients (disguised, of course, like

Zach’s plans for children) will be presented throughout to illustrate advice in

implementing each stage of the re-writing of people’s narratives.

The LPP Podcast is a show which will explore inner-workings of the Life Process Program (including a new option for children and families with addictions).

This episode deals with a clinical issue: how do you help another person to self-initiate — take control of — change in THEIR lives, with special reference to Zach’s work with children.

This segment also previews their forthcoming book, Outgrowing Addiction: With Common Sense Instead of “Disease” Therapy and the future LPP Family Track (LPPFT).
