In season 3 episode 3 Roman and Cecily sit down with Suzanne, a marriage and family therapist and sober alcoholic. She discusses how she has handled heartbreak in sobriety and the struggle of processing sexual assault.
“I didn’t know that you could navigate life just pretending like it never happened. Well this rocked my world, completely rocked my world… and life has been really hard, right now. It’s been a really big struggle for me. Hard because as a mental health professional, I logically know these things, but I don’t think I should be feeling these things. Fifty percent of me says what happened was wrong and the other fifty percent of me says you were drunk of course that happened to you.” -Suzanne
“Well, that’s a struggle that a lot of women in Alcoholics Anonymous go through.” -Cecily

GUIDE
Getting Clean & Sober at Home
Today, more than 75% of hospitals and healthcare providers offer access to telehealth treatment, with 29 states having gone so far as to enact telehealth parity laws, which force insurance companies to reimburse patients for telehealth at the same rates as they would for in-person treatment.
If you’ve been thinking about getting clean and sober, or if you’ve been wanting to work on and strengthen the recovery you already have, it’s never been easier to do it through telehealth.
