Supporting Your Clients in 12-Step Recovery
Have you ever worked with a client in AA, NA, or another 12-step program and felt out of your depth? You may have felt like you didn't know how to best support them, or even referred them out to someone with an addictions specialty. In this 2-hour course, you'll gain the tools you need to support your clients through their 12-step recovery with confidence.
Course Objectives:
Upon completion, participants will be able to:
- Identify the 12-steps and how they are utilized for recovery from substance abuse.
- Discuss the ways that 12-step culture impacts clients including the steps, traditions, slogans, anonymity and sponsorship.
- Recognize mental health issues that often come up during 12 step work and how therapists can support clients.
- Apply interventions and modalities to facilitate symptom reduction, support recovery and reduce relapse risk in conjunction with client’s stepwork.
