Relapse is a process that begins when clients start slipping back into old behavior patterns. A relapse begins long before they take their first drink, drug or gamble. This training aims to address increasing counselor understanding and skills related to promoting effective relapse prevention.
Participants will be introduced to a useful and teachable definition of relapse that allows for the earliest possible intervention in their client's relapse process and dynamic. Assessing the client's relapse dynamic and identifying effective interventions will be explored. A 10-Point Cravings Management will be reviewed that will assist the therapeutic relationship in identify cravings, urges and consequences. The utilization of Psychopharmacology for Addiction Recovery will be reviewed including medications to specifically address cravings. Alternatives to medication management will be explored and practice provided. This training is considered an advanced educational level. It is appropriate for clinicians and those professionals who have a thorough understanding of the basic concepts, yet are looking for an in-depth and detailed presentation and practice of the subject area.
