Description
A national emergency…the worst drug crises in U.S. history. The grim news surrounding opioid abuse continues to make the headlines.
But you know what lies behind the headlines. People. People whose lives have been devastated. Jail time and lost jobs. Shattered families. Early deaths and grieving families. People like you and I, prescribed a highly addictive substance to treat their chronic pain or after a minor medical procedure, who find themselves in a dangerous free fall that leaves their lives in ruin. People who walk through your door look to you for help.
Yet opioid disorders are substantially different from other addictions. Drug driven brain change and physical dependence, coupled with a substance that perilously slows breathing and heart rate have created a deadly epidemic of unprecedented proportions. And many individuals with opioid use disorders have at least one co-occurring mental health problem that must be addressed in the effort to achieve and sustain recovery.
A one-size fits all approach to addiction simply won’t suffice. Watch this workshop and learn more about:
- The neuroscience behind the unique risks of opioid abuse
- The signs – when pain management turns into addiction
- Tailored strategies to overcome the barriers to opioid use disorder treatment
- Psychotherapeutic approaches grounded in evidence-based modalities
- Screening tools and treatment strategies for co-occurring disorders
- Details on how Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT) can be combined with psychotherapy
Watch this critical one day seminar and get the tools you need to end the suffering and bring hope and healing to your clients!
