Support for families facing addiction

Support for families facing addiction starts here.

Is someone you love or care about battling with addiction or addictive behaviour?

I know it changes your world too, but there is help!

Addiction does not just harm the person using — it deeply affects those around them.

As supporters of people battling with addiction we often experience:
Feelings of hopelessness
Emotional burnout
Hypervigilance and anxiety
Loss of identity or self-worth
Isolation and confusion

There is hope!

When You have Tried Everything… What is Left?

When someone you care about is stuck in addiction it can feel deeply frustrating — even hopeless — to watch someone you care about spiral through destructive patterns. Their choices don not only affect them. Their behaviour ripples through the family, impacting your emotions, relationships, peace and every aspect of life.
While it is vital that your loved one gets help, it is equally important to understand this truth:

You can NOT cure it

You can NOT control it and

You did NOT cause their addiction.


What you can do is take ownership of your own life. You can choose healing and begin your own recovery journey.

Often, it is in letting go of the need to fix or rescue them that space is created — and real transformation becomes possible, for both of you.

I want to help you do exactly that.

Can you relate to this statement?



It feels like I am caught in the debris of the storm — left to deal with the destruction — while he hides in the calm of the eye tornado.”

It time to step out of the chaos and reclaim your own peace.

What is Resound?

Resound is a structured recovery programme designed for supporters — the spouses, parents, siblings, and friends of those struggling with addiction.


It is not therapy. It is not a support group where you just vent.


Resound is a practical, step-by-step journey in a group format that helps you reclaim your own wellbeing, understand the effects of addiction, and build healthy boundaries.


You will explore 13 powerful topics — from codependency and emotional intelligence to denial and self-worth — each designed to help you grow stronger, wiser, and more free.

Why Do It in a Group?

Healing happens faster when we are not alone.
In the group, you will connect with others who understand your situation without judgment.
You will gain perspective, feel supported, and often realise: “I am not the only one.”
Group members grow together, reflect together, and hold each other accountable in ways that individual work can not offer. The shared experience brings hope — and transformation.

Resound gives you tools.
The group gives you strength

What You Will Learn

Gain insight into addiction and the dysfunction it creates. Understanding these patterns helps supporters make sense of their experience and start making healthy changes.

As supporters we want to help, but sometimes our helping makes things worse by enabling our loved one with the addictive behaviour. By identifying and replacing enabling behaviours with empowering support, we can break these cycles that keep loved ones stuck and foster healthier interactions.

If we understand codependency and learn how to build healthy, interdependent relationships, we can develop healthier identities and boundaries.

When addiction is present, we often get caught in relational chaos.
This module helps you recognise the unhealthy roles we fall into and guides you toward healthier ways of relating. Let’s learn ways we can reduce conflict and foster more constructive, respectful communication in our family.

By understanding denial, in ourselves and in others, we can learn strategies to break through it.

Learn recovery basics including stages of change and the value of accountability and support. This will equip you as a supporter with tools and direction for long-term growth.

Explore what a comprehensive recovery programme looks like. Sustains change through consistent, intentional action.

In the midst of addiction, we often lose ourselves.
We put our lives on hold, trying to hold everything together for someone else. But true healing starts when you begin investing in your own recovery. This module helps you develop a personal strategy for long-term wellness — a clear, structured roadmap that brings focus, hope, and direction to your journey forward.

Rediscover your worth — not because of what you do for others, but simply because of who you are.
This module helps you develop a strong, stable sense of self that is not shaped by addiction, chaos, or others’ approval. By rebuilding self-worth from the inside out, you will gain resilience and reconnect with your true identity — one rooted in peace, not performance.

When you live with addiction, you often suppress your own emotions just to survive.
But healing comes when you can safely feel again. This module helps you reconnect with your emotional world — teaching you to identify, manage, and express your feelings with clarity and care. As your emotional intelligence grows, communication improves, reactivity decreases, and your inner world becomes a safer, more stable place.

When living with active addiction, our boundaries often become blurred or broken.
This module teaches you how to set and maintain clear, healthy boundaries that protect your wellbeing. Boundaries are not walls — they are bridges to mutual respect. Learning this skill helps prevent burnout, fosters emotional safety, and supports stronger, more balanced relationships.

Want to bring back more hope, joy, and resilience in a tough season?
Gratitude is a powerful tool for recovery. This module helps you shift your perspective by practicing deliberate thankfulness — even in the midst of difficulty. Over time, gratitude restores emotional balance, boosts resilience, and brings light into places that once felt heavy.

Got Questions?

Resound is a guided small-group recovery programme for supporters — the spouses, parents, siblings, and friends of those affected by addiction. It’s not just emotional support — it’s a structured journey that helps you understand addiction, build healthy boundaries, and reclaim your own life.

You will gain more than insight — you will gain freedom.
Resound helps you break the cycle of reacting, rescuing, and carrying what is not yours to fix.
You will learn how to set healthy boundaries, reclaim your identity, and find meaning in your relationships again — not through control, but through growth.
It is not just about surviving what your loved one is going through — it is about recovering your own peace, purpose, and personal power.

Anyone who feels overwhelmed, drained, or stuck because of a loved one’s addiction. Whether you’re trying to help your spouse, child, parent, or friend — this programme is for you.

Sharing is always encouraged but never forced. This is a safe space. You will never be pressured to say anything you are not ready to. Many participants find that what they choose to share brings unexpected healing — and helps others too.

That is okay. Resound is for you. Healing does not depend on them changing first. When you take steps to reclaim your life, it can shift the entire dynamic — and sometimes even inspire their recovery too.

Absolutely. While the programme is faith-informed and often run through churches or ministries, it is designed for anyone open to growth, recovery, and personal healing — regardless of religious background.

Yes, there is a fee to cover materials and facilitation. Some groups offer sponsorships or flexible payment options. Your local facilitator will give you the exact details.

When a loved one struggles with addiction, the entire family system is affected — not just the individual. You may not have caused the addiction, but you are still impacted emotionally, mentally, and even physically by the stress, fear, and uncertainty it brings.
Participating in a program like Resound is not about blaming you — it’s about equipping you.
It gives you the tools to:
Set healthy boundaries without guilt
Communicate with clarity and compassion
Manage your own emotional well-being
Avoid enabling behaviors that can unintentionally prolong the struggle
Rebuild trust, hope, and resilience in your own life
Healing starts with support — not blame.
By strengthening yourself, you not only protect your own heart, but you also become a healthier support for your loved one’s recovery journey.
You matter. Your healing matters.
If you feel ready to take your healing even further, I also offer one-on-one Recovery Coaching to support your personal journey.

The group meets once a week for about 2 hours. At that pace, the full programme takes approximately 24 weeks to complete. This slower rhythm allows for deeper reflection and more manageable integration into your life.

You don’t have to wait — and there’s no need to catch up.

Resound is designed in a rotational (circular) format, which means the group is ongoing and you can join at any time. You’ll begin with a one-on-one or small group Orientation, then join the main group where they are in the cycle.

Each session covers a standalone topic, so you’ll never feel behind. Over time, you’ll complete all 13 modules and experience the full programme.

Your journey starts when you’re ready — not when the calendar says so.

The programme costs R1500 per month for 6 months, which includes weekly 2-hour group sessions, all 13 digital workbooks, and personal support from a trained facilitator.

While private coaching or therapy can cost far more, Resound offers a structured recovery journey at an affordable rate — and you won’t be walking it alone.

You’ll be surrounded by like-minded people who understand, and guided by someone who gets what you’re going through.

This isn’t just support — it’s transformation with direction, in a safe space where healing happens together.

If finances are tight, don’t let that stop you. We offer limited sponsorships and flexible payment plans because we believe that healing should be accessible.

Reach out. We’ll do our best to help you start the journey.
