Description
This clinical workshop reviews Cognitive Behavioral Therapy theory and interventions. The thought–feeling–action model of cognitive therapy will be discussed in the context of substance use. The training builds on foundational knowledge and incorporates clinical considerations and specific interventions in the treatment of substance use disorders. The training focuses on core cognitive and behavioral interventions while adding elective therapeutic components to customize treatment for clients. The training targets clinicians who provide individual substance use treatment. This training will be highly interactive with ample opportunity for learning and refining skills through role play, demonstration, and a mock case-conceptualization exercise.
