MFT 246 - Treatment Planning and Addiction Counseling of the Chemically Dependent and Their Families in Recovery


Semester Hours: 3
Periodically
The study and practice of addiction counseling techniques for individual, group and family treatment will be explored. Stages of recovery and the impact of the defense structure of the patient (denial, projection, rationalization) at each juncture will be reviewed as well as the implications for relapse and relapse prevention. Advanced issues in family recovery, marriage therapy and ACOA treatment will be identified. A variety of teaching tools including role-play, family sculpture and videos will be incorporated to enhance in-class discussions and reading assignments.
