The Author
Hi, I’m Svitlana Rudovska, the author and creator of a program for relatives of addicts. I’m passionate about building supportive homes and encouraging loved ones to embrace treatment.
With 20 years of teaching experience and a PhD in Public Administration, my involvement in social and charitable projects in Ukraine has allowed me to contribute to the creation of a specialized program for relatives of addicts. Leveraging my 7-year experience in helping families facing addiction, and drawing on my personal journey of overcoming family addiction, I’ve witnessed positive results and healed numerous families. This journey has equipped me with a profound understanding of the nuances involved in addressing family problems with addicts. Join me on this transformative journey of positive change
My Philosophy
My philosophy centers on empowering relatives, urging them to recognize the significance of their lives beyond aiding the addicted. Balancing care for the addict and their own well-being, I highlight the impact of their behavior on treatment decisions. Regardless of the addict’s stance, relatives deserve respect and fulfillment. It’s vital to navigate and minimize addiction’s impact on the family name. Our program guides relatives in persuading addicts to seek treatment and fosters self-care practices for their well-being.

Testimonials
Elena
“I’ve been bound by my mother’s control since childhood, and my brother, unable to cope, turned to alcohol.After the course “Overcome”, I broke free from my mother’s control, guided my brother to rehab, and conquered the fear of parental rejection.”
Valentyna
“I bore the burden of my husband’s decade-long gambling debts, enduring poverty and witnessing my child’s resentment. Having done the course, I ceased paying my husband’s loans, overcame shame and fear of collectors, and shifted the responsibility back to him. Now, he faces his fear of debts and collectors.”
Nadin
“Initially, I provided financial support to my nephew’s family, enduring his addiction and aggression. Following a jail term, his family fell apart upon his return, leading to his wife leaving. After completing the program, I stopped financial assistance, convincing him to pursue rehab after 15 years of addiction.”
Nataly
“My son struggled with purposelessness, daily beer, strained family ties, and poor communication. After completing the program, I cultivated openness and trust in the family. My son pursued a new job, discovered a sense of purpose, and took control of his alcohol consumption.”
