“Clinicians must go even deeper when working with individuals dealing with addiction, and that focus needs to be on unresolved childhood pain points. By focusing on behavior modification to deal with addiction, too many counselors are neglecting to ensure we are not cleansing only a client’s damaging behavior but also his soul.”
Eddie Capparucci, Ph.D., LPC

Stephen H. Donnelly
“When he returned from St. John Vianney, Charlie felt fully vindicated. “They couldn’t find one thing wrong with me, Stephen.”
All I could think was, “Let him who is without sin cast the first stone.” I knew in my heart; I could not even cast a pebble.”
Stephen H. Donnelly, A Saint and a Sinner: The Rise and Fall of a Beloved Catholic Priest
