    Episode 18: "This is How to Help Our Addicted Loved Ones! " | With Katie Donovan

    In this episode of "Evan the Counselor Live," I have the extraordinary privilege of chatting with a colleague, friend, and a truly inspirational figure – Katie Donovan. Despite my extensive experience in working with families and individuals grappling with addiction, both personally and professionally, it's Katie I turn to when I need deeper insights. Katie isn't just a writer and content creator; she is, most importantly, a mother. Her daughter's battle with severe addiction and mental health challenges has not only shaped her journey but also empowered her to assist thousands of families in crisis. These families, often feeling lost and fearing for their loved ones' lives, have found guidance and hope through Katie's work. What sets Katie apart is her unique, compassionate, and balanced approach to mindfully supporting those precious individuals in our lives who we deeply care for, yet fear for their safety. Her blend of knowledge, experience, and insight is invaluable, making her an indispensable resource in this field. I highly recommend diving into this podcast and immersing yourself in Katie's work. Her wisdom is a beacon for anyone navigating the turbulent waters of addiction and mental health within their family.

    Episode 15: "Lessons from 1,000 Addiction Interventions" | With Drew Horowitz

    In this episode, I welcome Drew Horowitz, an addiction & mental health clinician and interventionist in Minnesota who has performed nearly 1,000 interventions nationwide. As an interventionist, Drew delivers a rare, complex, and essential service that very few people can excel at, addiction intervention. Drew and I discuss one of the most common questions I receive as a therapist: "How do I help a friend or family member struggling with addiction or mental health who may be resistant? There is a fine line between helping and enabling, so we break down who family members can be most influential while avoiding unwittingly contributing to the problem. From his personal addiction recovery, Drew found his purpose to help others in his same shoes and has become one of the most respected interventionists in the US. Drew is also an incredible entrepreneur opening multiple programs in Minnesota, from Detox and IOP to Specialized Sober Living. The conversation with Drew was a fascinating discourse as we shared our related experiences working with MICD clients in various complicated and dire situations.  ----------- GET IN TOUCH: If you want to learn more about addiction and mental health, please click SUBSCRIBE to Evan's Youtube channel and follow him on other social media: 💎 Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@evan.the.counselor 💎 My Blog: https://evanthecounselor.com 💎 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/evan.the.counselor 💎 Podcast: https://anchor.fm/evanthecounselor 💎 Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/evanthecounselor

    Episode 14: "Finding Meaning in Tragedy" | A Trauma Survivor Turned Doctor with Dr. Carie Manke

    In this episode, I invite my friend and colleague, Dr. Carrie Manke, an inspirational woman, to join ETC Live. Surviving a horrific sexual assault and domestic violence, Carrie overcame her obstacles and used her experience to become a medical professional to help others who went through similar experiences. This interview turned into a fascinating two-sided discussion where both Carrie and I share our personal experiences and professional knowledge of trauma therapy, chronic pain, childhood memory, and many under-discussed topics as two roles: the patient and the therapist. I specialize in trauma therapy, while she is the provider for chronic pain that I have struggled with for years. The episode with Dr. Manke is informative and touching as it carries her hope to heal the wounded souls and recover after the sorrow. ----------- GET IN TOUCH: If you want to learn more about addiction and mental health, please click SUBSCRIBE to Evan's Youtube channel and follow him on other social media: 💎 Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@evan.the.counselor 💎 My Blog: https://evanthecounselor.com 💎 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/evan.the.counselor 💎 Podcast: https://anchor.fm/evanthecounselor 💎 Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/evanthecounselor

    Episode 13: "A Therapist and Psychiatrist Walk Into a Bar (Again…) " Solving all of the Problems with Dr. Sood aka. The Psych Doc of TikTok

    In this episode, ETC Live welcomes our first returning guest, Dr. Ashvin Sood. Also known as The Psych Doc of TikTok, Dr. Sood is a licensed Psychiatrist in Virginia and a social media influencer in mental health. Dr. Sood and I had a captivating conversation on our last dual Livestream. He and I could probably talk for hours about everything related to mental health and addiction. In this conversation, we discussed a lot of great topics and a few controversial ones, such as the addictive potential of Adderall and considerations when giving this often necessary med to patients with ADHD. We both share our experience working with Adderall: such as which patients are most appropriate for it, who are not, and how to calculate the risk benefits when prescribing. Also, in the podcast, we discuss our experience working with adolescents and some of the complexities, as well as the rewards it can bring.   There were some complex psychological topics in the discussion, so if you want to know more about any case, leave a comment, and I'll see if I can answer. Or, more likely, I'll just ask Dr. Sood :) ---------GET IN TOUCH: If you want to learn more about addiction and mental health, please click SUBSCRIBE to Evan's Youtube channel and follow him on other social media: 💎 Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@evan.the.coun...💎 My Blog: https://evanthecounselor.com💎 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/evan.the.co...💎 Podcast: https://anchor.fm/evanthecounselor💎 Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/evanthecounselor
