Health Professionals in RecoveryEpisode 8: The Untapped Resource: Family with Patrick DoyleEpisode 8: The Untapped Resource: Family with Patrick Doyle
Join our hosts as we chat with our good friend Patrick Doyle from Family Addiction Coaching as we discuss the role of the family in a person's recovery.
