Jo Huey

Hi, I'm Jo. As the daughter of an alcoholic I understand what it's like to be affected by someone else's alcohol misuse. Now I share my experiences and expertise to help others.

One of the ways I help is by providing individuals with the tools to help themselves through my Facebook group, podcast and one to one sessions. Whether you live with a drinker now or years ago, I help you reclaim the life you've lost.

Have a look at the resources, just here.

My Story

My Dad was the alcoholic in my life, he passed away two months before my 21st birthday. It was a double edged sword, I felt relief and pain. He was the only Dad I had and I miss him to this day. He's missed so much of my life. Families of alcoholics often have hope, hope they'll change and realise the destruction they're causing, but often then don't. 

It's extremely hard for families because they're the ones dealing with the fall out and the consequences of the drinkers actions. Also interesting to remember is that even when the drinker has sobriety, that doesn't mean things are all better. Co-dependant behaviours and characteristics still play out into your adult life! Seeking one to one support in my expert opinion is the best way to get recovery.
