Description

In group therapy settings for addiction treatment, clients come from diverse backgrounds and have varied motivations, learning styles, and stages of healing. Unfortunately, current clinical training often lacks focus on group dynamics and facilitation skills in practice. However, effective group facilitation is essential to guide a diverse group towards a common recovery goal. 

 

Join us to discover strategies for maximizing the impact of group therapy, including: 

  • Real-world practice scenarios to enhance clients' recovery skills 
  • Techniques to encourage positive change talk and improve session flow 
  • Small group activities for focused problem-solving and engagement 
  • Diverse delivery methods to accommodate different learning preferences 
  • Staging and scaffolding techniques to align recovery capital with client goals 
  • Inclusive activities to ensure participation from all group members 

 

By honing your facilitation skills, you can better prepare clients for success beyond therapy, leading to improved treatment outcomes.
