Marion Rackard, psychotherapist, addiction counsellor and co-founder of Alcohol Action Ireland’s initiative Silent Voices, discusses the psychological impacts arising from growing up with parental problem alcohol use with Mick Devine, Clinical Director with the Tabor Group.

Mick has a particular interest in families that alcoholic people emerge from, as this was the experience with his own family. Our conversation will help counsellors or psychotherapists who work with this client group, who emerge from similar family settings or therapists working in this area.

Its production was supported by funding from the Mental Health Grant Scheme for Community and Voluntary Groups.
