About This Blog
Welcome to this blog. I am a researcher and therapist specializing in working with couples who are in recovery from addiction. My hope is to provide information, support, and to open discussions on the struggles, challenges, joys, and experiences of couples managing their relationships and managing recovery.
I have found very little support for couples to deal with their relationship until they are well into the recovery process, and even then, the absence of any relationship road maps leaves couples in a void.
This blog will be a work in progress, we will see how it evolves.
Robert Navarra, Psy.D., M.F.T., is a Research associate at the Mental Research Instritute in Palo Alto, California, where he co-founded with Dr. Virginia Lewis the Center for Couples In Recovery.
