Jan Moore lost her only son to an overdose almost ten years ago, and her journey of healing led her to go back to school and become a licensed professional counselor who has worked with people struggling with addiction as well as their families since then. Today she shares her story as well as talks about Community Reinforcement and Family Training (CRAFT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Invitation to Change, and how families can be healthier as well as helping their loved one be healthier. She's passionate about teaching families how to truly help, and helping them as they lay down the battle for control and embrace an approach of influence.
Jan is a licensed professional counselor in private practice in Hattiesburg, MS. She has lived in Hattiesburg for about forty years. She is married to James Moore and has two children, one of whom is deceased. Prior to becoming a counselor, she worked as an elementary school teacher and an admin assistant at a local hospital. She worked in an inpatient substance use disorder facility for five years after getting her master's degree. She has been in private practice for the last several years. In both settings, she has gotten experience working with people with substance use disorders and dual diagnoses as well as their families.
