The Truth About Addiction and How Families Can Heal Together

Addiction recovery isn’t just about the person struggling — it’s about healing the entire family. In this episode, Andrew Levander, LMFT, M.A.C, shares 25 years of expertise and his personal journey from opiates and alcohol to recovery. As the founder of Encino Recovery and Detox Center (seen on Oprah and Dr. Phil), Andrew breaks down the realities of addiction, withdrawal, and lasting healing.

 ✅ Why treating the whole family is essential to recovery
 ✅ The life-threatening risks of certain withdrawals
 ✅ How medication-assisted treatment works
 ✅ The link between trauma and addiction
 ✅ Why a digital detox can be part of healing

This is more than an interview — it’s a guide to understanding addiction and finding a path forward.
