Description

The most common question that is asked "HELP!! How do I know if my loved one has a problem and needs help and what do I do to help them?” Dr. Viktoriya Magid will be discussing signs of “SUD” substance use disorder, education on steps for treatment and support options, the family role in treatment and recovery as well as resources and support for their loved on and family as a whole. Every family is unique, but all families share a bond that can be used to support one another during trying times. While there is no one-size-fits-all solution for helping a family member who is drinking too much, using drugs, or dealing with a mental illness, research shows that family support can play a major role in helping a loved one with mental and substance use disorders. For more than 15 years, Dr. Magid has been helping adults, adolescents, families, and couples to reach their full potential by guiding them past the barriers that are preventing them from living their most meaningful and authentic lives. She has successfully treated the full spectrum of therapeutic concerns, from relationship and career issues to psychiatric and substance use disorders. Grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dr. Magid integrates elements of a variety of evidence-based treatments, including Acceptance and Commitment therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Dialectical Behavioral therapy into her work with clients. Her deep understanding of and experience with this wide variety of clinical problems and therapeutic techniques allows her to tailor her therapeutic approach to each unique, complex individual with whom she works.
