DBT and the 12 Steps
DBT by itself can seem very clinical. 12-step recovery can be difficult to accept. In this episode of Through the Trees, we sit down with Bari Platter, MS, RN, PMHCNSBC who developed DBT and the 12 Steps, an innovative program now used by treatment centers across the country.
Transplants
One of the most devastating consequences of alcoholism is the development of liver disease. For some of these individuals, they require a transplant to survive. On this episode of Through the Trees, we sit down with the University of Colorado Liver Transplant Team, specifically Dr. Whitney Jackson and Dr. Steven Huett. As Colorado is one of the premier national locations for transplant medicine, this podcast will shed light on some of the complex variables involved in receiving a new liver ranging from scientific factors to bioethics.
Cultivating a Recovery Community
Over the past two years, CeDAR has built a vibrant alumni community. Our Alumni Coordinator, Meghan White, spearheads this effort. On this episode of Through the Trees, we sit down with Meghan to learn about growing a recovery community. Lisa Peretti, an alumni who maintains an active presence in this community, also joins us. We explore what makes this program flourish, now with a membership of over 1,700 individuals.
