Michael Barnes Family Institute

I am pleased to announce that the Michael Barnes Family Institute (MBFI) at NRT Behavioral Health became official on January 1, 2024. NRT Behavioral Health provides trauma-integrated behavioral health services through a full continuum, including Addiction Treatment, detox, mental health, substance abuse treatment, and co-occurring disorders. NRT programs include Foundry Treatment Center Steamboat, Chrysalis Outpatient Services, and other programs in development.  The MBFI provided services within the Foundry Steamboat Clinical Program from January 2020 to January 2024. I have turned over my position as Chief Clinical Officer at Foundry Treatment Center, Steamboat Springs, to Jasmine Aranda, MA, LAC, LPC. Jasmine is employee #2 at Foundry Steamboat, and we have worked together for the past seven years to evolve the Foundry Trauma-Integrated treatment program. I am currently focusing on MBFI program development and marketing family services nationally for NRT. I will continue to serve as NRT Senior Clinical Advisor and member of the NRT leadership team. Thanks to everyone for their consistent support of this passion project! It is truly appreciated! #MichaelBarnesFamilyInstitute, #NRT, #addiction, #familiesandaddiction #familiesandtrauma #addictiontreatment,

I am very excited be presenting this webinar on Secondary Trauma for EAPA. I did my Masters Internship in 1981 at the US Steel EAP in Homstead PA. Since that time I have worked with several EAP programs and have maintained my interest in this important segment of the counseling continuum! #trauma #eap #familytrauma

I'm in Steamboat Springs and stopped in Off the Beaten Path Bookstore for coffee (and a muffin). When I walked past the Psychology and Self-Help Section, this is what I saw! There are a few times when writing a book gives you a bit of a thrill. The first is when you get the finished copy in your hands. The second is when you see your book in a bookstore! If interested in purchasing my book, "When the Solution Becomes the Problem: Helping Families Struggling with Addiction and Trauma, you can buy one at Off the Beaten Path Bookstore. I will be doing a book signing at Off the Beaten Path on Saturday, January 19th. You can also purchase one on my website at www.drmikebarnes.com, Amazon, or other online bookstores.

Greetings. I am very excited to report that my book, "When the Solution Becomes the Program: Helping Families Struggling with Addiction and Trauma," is ready for publication. The ebooks are already available, and the paperback versions should be available soon. People often ask who the target audience is. Several groups would benefit. Clearly, family members with a loved one who is active in their addiction or in treatment. I think individuals who grew up in a family with addiction and traumatic stress, who see themselves as "Adult Children of addiction," or who struggle with co-dependency would also benefit from all chapters in the book. Finally, individuals who are in recovery and are still in conflict with their families. We have found that understanding the impact of addiction and trauma on family members of all ages is a very good way to protect the next generation from experiencing the same struggles as well.
