How to Support a Loved One Who Refuses Treatment?

Sober on Purpose - Healing Families of Addiction

Welcome back, Sober On Purpose family! 🎉 Today, I’m thrilled to introduce Dr. Brian F. Licuanan, a board-certified psychologist, author, and speaker based in Southern California. Dr. Licuanan joins us to discuss his new book, How to Get Your Resisting Loved One Into Treatment: A Step-by-Step Guide for Mental Health and Addiction Crisis.

In this episode, we dive deep into one of the most common struggles many of you face—how to help a loved one who refuses treatment. Dr. Licuanan brings over 20 years of experience working with individuals and families affected by mental health and addiction. He offers compassionate, practical advice and shares his unique approach to "assertive love," a balance of boundaries and relationship that replaces the often misunderstood concept of "tough love."

You’ll hear real stories, actionable strategies, and insight into understanding addiction as a disease—reminding us that, while we all have our struggles, there’s always hope and a path forward.

If you’re feeling helpless or stuck in supporting someone close to you, this episode is for you.
