Description
Many chemically dependent clients have multiple addictions and disorders, which, if unaddressed, lead to chronic recidivism. They include hidden psychiatric disorders, unresolved trauma, unresolved grief and process addictions, including sex, relationships, romance, gambling, shopping and religion. In this session, participants will learn strategies that will help them effectively address multiple addictions and disorders common among chemically dependent clients. Too many difficult-to-reach clients are at risk for relapse because their practitioners lack effective, innovative strategies for this unique client base who remain part of a revolving-door syndrome. The presenter will address specific strategies to assist therapists and counselors who work with difficult and at-risk populations.
