Does anyone know if any of the Online Therapists on 7 Cups support a Harm Reduction approach?

Or does anyone have any recommendations of any of them who are worth trying, and who were helpful for you, and who would at least be open to that approach?

I've had bad experiences before with a therapist trying to push AA on me, which makes me a bit wary.

Or could we even have a list of listeners in this subcommunity who specially that they support Harm Reduction / SMART Recovery / LifeRing / Moderation Management etc.. , and currently take chats, as I think that would be very useful.

What do you guys think @dancingStrawberry34 @piercetheaiden @VinylFly ?

@resourcefulPond1641 I think that's a great idea! I do know that we have a few listeners (myself included) that work and volunteer for offsite harm reduction organizations and we've also got one who's training to be a SMART facilitator. I hope our community reflects those sorts of values and is welcoming to everyone, wherever they're at heart

How do you feel about perhaps creating a thread where listeners can post a sort of bio on their experiences, backgrounds, and philosophies on addiction and recovery?

@VinylFly Yeah, I'd be happy to create a thread of that nature, which various listeners could add to with various details that would make it easier for members to find a listener who's a good match for them. cool
