You want everyone together. But you’re worried about what happens when they are.
Maybe the last family gathering brought something into focus that’s been weighing on you for months.
You’re wondering whether to extend the invitation. What to say if the same behavior happens again. How to respond when one family member says,
“They need help,”
and another says,
“Please, let’s just have a nice Christmas.”
And somewhere in the middle, you’re trying to hold everything together.
You don’t have to have all the answers before asking for guidance.
This webinar is a place to start understanding your options before the next family gathering.

Three beliefs that can keep families feeling stuck
Let’s just get through the holidays.
It can feel easier to put the conversation off. We’ll discuss how families can begin exploring their options without having to make every decision at once.
Setting boundaries means I’m giving up on them.
You want your loved one to feel supported. We’ll explore how caring for someone and setting boundaries can fit together—and the questions to consider in your own situation.
They won’t accept help, so there’s nothing we can do.
It’s hard to know where to turn when a loved one refuses support. Tom and Craig will discuss what families can ask about treatment resources and legal options, and why the appropriate next step depends on the circumstances.
