By recognizing signs of readiness such as acknowledgment of the problem and a desire for change, caregivers can focus their efforts effectively. We explore strategies like building trust, providing education, and encouraging small steps towards change. It’s crucial to respect an individual’s pace and readiness, fostering a supportive environment that empowers lasting recovery. Through empathy, clear communication, and self-care, we aim to maximize the impact of our support efforts and promote meaningful engagement.
