The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) launched a challenge to spur people to create apps which help patients receiving outpatient medication-assisted treatment for opioid use disorder maintain their recovery and avoid relapse.
Well, on today's episode I'm happy to have Dr. Harold Jonas, a solutions based psychotherapist whose FlexDek app won first place in this contest.
This free app provides a method of tracking, connecting and providing accountability for those in recovery.
FlexDek Medication Assisted Treatment Edition empowers both clients and care managers by allowing for customized levels of clinical involvement.
Dr. Jonas entered recovery in 1987 and is responsible for the concept, design and launch of multiple systems to help serve the Addiction & Recovery industry. Including: Soberhouses.com, Sober.com, Detox.com, Halfwayhouses.com, Rehabs.com, Recoveryroommates.com, Interventionstrategies.com and Sobernetwork.com.
In this compelling interview, Dr. Jonas discusses how The Sober Network incorporates its online directory and community site Sober.com, with FlexDek powered mobile apps and its Recovery Coach educational platform to form a suite of services which promote recovery from addiction - from initial counseling and treatment, to aftercare, to a vibrant and healthy lifestyle.
The Sober Network is driven by its mission to help people Get Sober. Stay Sober.
Join us as we cover how this new, ground-breaking (and free) app can help people be fully accountable in their recovery.

Recovery Innovators Radio show is to here to help you turn your addiction recovery challenges and failures into successes and freedom from everything that’s keeping you from living the life you deserve.
I check in with innovative experts and individuals in the recovery industry, related fields or just “regular folks” who have had some incredible experiences so we can hear directly from them what is working today for addicts in recovery, for their families and their friends.
I also want this to be a learning tool for professionals in the recovery field, a place where ideas can be nurtured and spread, where networking and education can help addiction treatment become more effective all the time.
It's estimated that 53 million American's are touched by addiction. It is rare if you have not been personally affected by this disease.
So, even if you are not the addict, maybe it's your son or daughter, or Mom or Dad, or sister, brother, cousin, uncle, aunt, co-worker, boss, neighbor, whoever. This disease is impacting you somehow, making your life a little less than what you would like it to be if you could wave a magic wand and create your dream world.
I want these cutting edge ideas to be available to those who need help, those who often cannot afford to access the professional help they need.
My mission here is to do so much good for the recovery community that I have a positive effect on addiction. I want to help hundreds, if not thousands of addicts (maybe millions someday) to be healthy, sober and free, really enjoying their life in sobriety.
Thanks for listening! James Healy |
