Prepare for Landing: Tools for a More Realistic Transition Home From Treatment with Jen Murphy and Hilary Moses of Solutions Parenting Support

ABOUT THE EPISODE:
If your son or daughter has been to residential treatment or Wilderness Therapy, you may have considered asking (begging?) a staff member to come home with them to help with the transition.  

Thankfully, I was able to sit down with two experts who specialize in supporting parents during this vulnerable time-Jen Murphy and Hilary Moses of Solutions Parenting Support.
 
You’ll hear why it can be easy to think “all is lost” when the tools you’ve gained during treatment feel challenging to implement in a new setting. You’ll discover why the “container” of treatment is so effective and how you can borrow from what worked well and embrace the bumpy ride to lasting change. Jen and Hilary also share about their new book, “HOME” which will be available in February 2023!  

In this episode, you’ll learn

• The different traps parents fall into when they’re preparing to lose the “container” of support like residential treatment or Wilderness Therapy
• What to do when your child has zero positive influences back at home
• How to be cautiously optimistic about your son or daughter and not encourage a performance mentality to gain trust
• Why it’s important to consider when you need to be a parent versus when you need to be a mom or dad, and what the difference is
