After 25 Years of Practicing Family Recovery Therapy, Larry Has a Lot to Say
Larry Fritzlan is available to speak to professional and lay audiences, to medical and mental health organizations, at conferences, academic institutions, and treatment centers, as a guest on podcasts, and in broadcast media interviews. His areas of expertise include families, family systems, substance use and abuse, addiction and addiction treatment, and intervention on addicted family systems.
A Fascinating Journey of Discovery
Larry has written three books for those with an addicted family member: My Addicted Child, My Addicted Spouse, and My Addicted Parent. In his most recent book, Addiction Therapy and Treatment: A Systems Approach, he and his co-author Avis Rumney, LMFT, describe this radical approach to addiction treatment and why a different approach is needed.
Instead of the traditional model of addiction treatment, which focuses almost entirely on the addict, Family Recovery Therapy typically begins treatment with the family members who are most involved with the addict and often are enabling their behavior.
Larry Fritzlan has successfully treated addicted family systems for over 25 years. The recovering addicts and families he works with are testimony to the efficacy of the treatment model he has developed. Larry also trains family therapists to use his model to become certified Family Recovery therapists.
Larry has presented to staff at residential treatment centers and to professional audiences in conference settings. He taught a graduate course on addiction for many years at the California Institute of Integral Studies.
