As a former police officer, Dr. Bradley knows and understands addiction from an insiders perspective, down and dirty, up close and personal. When his daughter was two years old, he discovered his wife was a chronic alcoholic. Then, in her late teens he learned the heartbreaking news that his daughter had become a drug addict. The dynamics, drama and trauma of codependency and enabling became first-hand experience as Dr. Bradley surrendered to the truth about his daughter. He came to the critical understanding it was possible she might die living out on the streets, but most likely would die if he continued to enable her at home. Making the most counterintuitive decision a father could possibly make, he kicked her out with the understanding she could only come back home if she sought professional help. Thankfully, his daughter eventually did seek treatment, has been clean for many years now, and their relationship has been wonderfully restored. A dynamic lecturer, Dr. Bradley delivers a powerful message of hope for addicts, family and friends and treatment professionals. From genetics and brain chemistry to codependency and enabling to denial and relapse prevention, Dr. Bradley draws back the curtain on this ugly disease, helps us understand the hows and whys of addiction and presents practical tools for getting clean & sober, and staying that way.
