Understand Mark Ludholm’s “Freeway of Addiction” model exploring chemical “lanes” of addiction versus non-chemical “lanes” of addiction, as well as healthy addictions that can become a “way of life,” or “culture.”

Explore various recovery (from addiction) cultures and exactly how Rites of Passage rituals and the clinician create healthy change.
