One Hour AT A Time
Summary: Recovery, whether it is from substance abuse or a mental illness, or both requires a treatment plan, which in many cases is as effective as treatments for other chronic illnesses. “One Hour AT A Time” will increase awareness about recovery and decrease the discrimination against individuals in the recovery process. Host Mary Woods, will help people understand the recovery of adults and families living with co-occurring substance use disorders and psychotic and/or affective illness over the course of a lifetime. Helping individuals develop the skills and knowledge they need to take personal responsibility for their health and supporting individuals in their efforts to get on with life beyond illness has been Mary’s mission and she now brings that mission to the airwaves. Broadcasting live on VoiceAmerica Health and Wellness every Monday afternoon at 12 PM Pacific, “One Hour AT A Time” – where recovery begins with education.

Dr. Marshak is also the scientific director of Moscow’s renowned Marshak Clinic. The Marshak Method incorporates genetic testing, nutrition, yoga, self help, counseling and education to treat addtiction. In 1997 Dr. Marshak opened Moscow’s first clinic for the treatment of addiction. Influenced by the findings of neuroscientist Kenneth Blum, which identified a defect in the dopamine D2 receptor gene, Marshak began testing his patients for the D2 gene variation. Through scientific literature Marshak and his daughter, a post doctoral researcher at the University of California (Irvine), found other genes linked to reward deficiency syndrome in general, and specifically in drug addiction. Marshak refined and improved his genetic testing. all patients are tested for 4 genes; based on the results, a special program is created for each individual client.

This episode will focus on how to successfully change behavior such as overeating, substance misuse/dependence and smoking. We will discuss the process of change and why some treatments are more effective for each stage of change. Our guest will be Dr. Carlo DiClemente, who is internationally recognized as co-creator (with James Prochaska, Ph.D.) of the Transtheoretical Model of Change, a model that identifies stages of change and other factors that predict treatment outcomes and allows many more people to enter treatment programs at earlier stages of readiness He has presented this model of intentional behavior change in training workshops both here in the United States and in many other countries. His current research interests include smoking initiation and cessation, alcoholism and substance abuse treatment, dual diagnosis, early intervention with problem drinkers, pregnancy smoking cessation, and initiation of health protection and health threatening behaviors.
