Yet we treat it as if 90 days is all the treatment anyone needs. Try to find a bed for extended recovery or ask an insurance company to reimburse you or your program for addiction treatment after 3 months of abstinence by your client. This talk looks at the process of long-term recovery, some of the characterological dynamics that need to be identified and addressed (call them “character defects” if you desire) and how people can heal through psychotherapy, 12-Step recovery, spiritual processes and, especially, by availing themselves to intimate and loving relationships. One goal of this talk is to help counselors conceptualize the long-term recovery process but the content can also be adapted to help clients understand the path of their own recovery. 9:45 am – 10:15 am NETWORKING BREAK 10:15 am- 11:45 am Bruce Carruth, PhD Treating People on the Antisocial Spectrum - Part 1 of 4 (6 hrs) Bruce Carruth, PhD This course offers a paradigm for treatment based on specific treatment needs and the world view of the antisocial person.

Do your young clients just sit there with their hands in their laps, feeling uncomfortable with the whole “therapy” process? Have you tried board and card games? Often through the process of playing a game, the client will begin to relax and will be willing to open up and talk. Games can be fun and engaging to many, and if you don't have to think about the actual familiar process of playing the game too much, then much therapeutic time can be had during the session. Games have the same give and take process that conversation is supposed to have, which is easier to follow when taking turns. It also puts you and the client on an even plain because you can lose as well as he can win. Games can help you get to know your client better and will support them in getting the most out of their therapy. Come ready to share your favorites and maybe play a short game or two.
