In this powerful “Best Of” episode, Dr. Sharon Spano connects with Steve Feldman—CEO of Feinberg Consulting, interventionist, and person in long-term recovery—on the vital importance of family support during addiction, mental health, and complex medical crises.

Steve shares his personal and professional journey from entrepreneurship to recovery advocate, and how he and his team are revolutionizing care navigation by treating not only the individual but the entire family system. His multidisciplinary team offers customized assessments, interventions, coaching, and ongoing support to help families recover—together.

“Healing is possible, even in the most complex situations. The family isn’t a bystander—it’s the soil for transformation.” — Steve Feldman
