Family Addiction Counseling Program
Crossroads Centre Antigua recognizes that healing from alcohol and other drug dependencies happens best with the involvement of families. Families and concerned others play a significant role in the recovery process.
“I can’t thank everyone enough for the care and information you have shared with my son and myself. I feel I have gained new tools to better communicate my feelings and concerns regarding my son’s alcoholism/recovery with him and for my own self-care and recovery as a mother of an addict. Forever grateful to all at Crossroads.”

What is the Family Addiction cycle like?
Loved ones of the chemically dependent person are involved in the addiction experience in much the same way as the addict / alcoholic. If we grew up in a family system where there was addiction, or other forms of dysfunction, we learned how to cope and survive at a very early age. Unknowingly, we continue to operate with these survival behaviors in present relationships until we come to realize how these responses may not be conducive to satisfying relationships. With this new understanding, we can begin to identify and make changes that can improve the quality of our life.
