International expert on addiction and co-dependency, Pia Mellody, has described that addiction is a substitute activity that aims to divert a person's attention from a reality that is unbearable for them. Because it has the power to overshadow the pain that inevitably comes with living, addiction - regardless of its type - becomes the most important priority in a person's life, robbing attention and time that should belong to other priorities, such as children.
I specialize in working with people suffering from codependency and addiction because of my own personal experience with these complex psychological conditions. And also in dealing with these conditions.
