Treatment Resistance

These five words carry the weight of a parent's deepest fear and most persistent heartache. You watch your bright, capable child, now 25, 30, or even 35, struggle to find direction, purpose, or momentum in their life.

If you're reading this, chances are you've completed a treatment program. Here's what no one prepared you for: what to do after rehab when the structure disappears and real life begins again.

If you’ve ever felt, ‘I just want to help, but they keep pushing me away,’ you’re not alone. Resistance isn’t simply defiance—it’s often communication. At Trifecta Life Consulting we’ve found resistance usually signals inner fears, autonomy needs and protective responses. When we stop trying to ‘beat’ resistance and instead listen to it, genuine connection and healing become possible.
