Co-occurring disorders are more the rule than the exception with clients who have substance use issues.
But the unique interplay of psychiatric disorders and substance use makes co-occurring disorders difficult to diagnose and complex to treat. In many cases, clients receive treatment for one disorder while the other remains undiagnosed and unaddressed until it’s too late.
How can you ensure that you’re seeing the whole picture and are properly prepared to provide the very best treatment for clients with multiple co-morbidities?
In this comprehensive training, Hayden Center, PhD, LPC, will share the skills, interventions and clinical insights he’s cultivated over three decades of work with these clients.
Watch him and discover how you can:
Best of all, Hayden will cover it all with detailed examples and real-world case studies that make the strategies he shares accessible and applicable to clinicians at every level.
These patients are already in your practice. Don’t miss this chance to enhance your skills so you can help them move with confidence into recovery and the lives they want.
