This is the second half of the Good Counsel Podcast that contains material from a live continuing education seminar that I presented in 2024 on Prolonged Grief Disorder and Substance Use Disorders. Subjects covered include the relationship between substance use disorders and prolonged grief including research findings and implications for treatment.
Good Counsel Podcast Host Eric Bricker is an accomplished South Florida psychotherapist and behavioral health consultant, specializing in the treatment of anxiety, depression, relationship issues, substance misuse, grief and loss, anger management and trauma. Eric has worked in a diverse range of clinical capacities including community mental health, residential addictions treatment, Native American behavioral healthcare administration and private practice. Eric is a Certified EMDR therapist, anger management specialist, and certified grief recovery specialist.
The Good Counsel Podcast is an exploration into the world of helping professionals from various disciplines and walks of life. The goal of the podcast is to discover the motivations and methodologies of these unique individuals in order to satisfy and arouse curiosity among members of the public who have an interest in this area of discussion.
The purpose of the Podcast is to incorporate a definition of ‘helping professional’ that is diverse. Good Counsel Podcast interviewees will include Psychotherapists, Medical Professionals, Life Coaches, Interventionists, Spiritual Healers, Substance Use Disorder Treatment Professionals and Educators amongst others, in order to capture a broad range of disciplines.
The mission of the podcast is to increase awareness and reduce stigma among the general public around mental health issues, substance use disorders and related problems while exposing people to the abundance and variety of help that is available to them.
