Dr. Sarah Michaud, PsyD, is a clinical psychologist in central Massachusetts who has worked in the addiction field for over 30
years. She recently published a book called Co-Crazy: One Psychologist’s Recovery from Codependency and Addiction – a memoir and Manual for Freedom. Dr. Sarah Michaud has been sober for almost 40 years and brings humor, directness, compassion, and insight to the Sober Curator Team. She recently launched a YouTube channel, “Leaving CrazyTown,” with her sober attorney buddy Finn. They discuss all things codependency and addiction while having lots of laughs.
Finn, a sober tax attorney by day and a Codependency Recovery YouTube channel co-host at night. He got sober in 2016, precipitating the transition from his identity with achievement to a new attachment and dedication to live a joyous, connected life.
In 2020, Finn met Dr. Sarah Michaud in a twelve-step Zoom meeting. They decided to create an online codependency recovery group focused on solutions, empowering relationships, and finding freedom from repetitive patterns of connection. It was during the co-hosting of this group that Finn could accept that he was transgender. Ironically the name of the group was Coming Home to Ourselves. Finn’s transition has led to many comical and not-so-comical growth opportunities. Despite the challenges, he is finally home in his body and the world.
Finn and Sarah launched their YouTube channel, Leaving CrazyTown, in the fall of 2022 as a way to reach a larger audience and support people in healing from codependency and addiction while experiencing joy, laughter, self-compassion and the journey home to who you were always meant to be.
