Description
Speaker: Justin Wolf, LPC-S, LCDC

With thirty days being insufficient for long-term recovery, it is important to get the most out of those days. This presentation will illuminate the need for concise, evidenced based treatment that achieves the most impact and provides an alternative approach to the 12 Step program. Highlights will include how to move residential clients as far down the road to recovery as possible, in the short time available, utilizing cutting edge technology, specific therapies and practices including CBT as a therapeutic model, Neuro feedback, mindfulness and EMDR accomplishing much in a short time.

A primary focus is dealing with mental health diagnosis and trauma during residential substance abuse treatment and setting a strong foundation for follow up care.
Upon completion of this session, attendees will be able to:
