Ep 598 Adolescent substance abuse: How to be proactive, prepared and empowered with Rick Capriola

<p>In today's episode, I talk with Rick Capriola, who has been a mental health and addictions counselor for over two decades. He recently retired from Menninger Clinic in Houston where he worked with adolescents and adults diagnosed with mental health and substance abuse issues. He is the author of a new book entitled The Addicted Child: A Parent's Guide to Adolescent Substance Abuse. We talked about how we can educate ourselves about substance abuse when our kids are very young, to how we can learn and look for the warning signs when they get a little bit older, to what steps to take if we discover our child has a substance abuse problem.
