Description
Techniques employed during treatment and early stages of recovery are different than those used to support long-term recovery. This webinar outlines the differences between professionally directed, long-term treatment planning and patient-directed long-term recovery planning and the role of addiction professionals in long-term recovery of their clients and families. The presenter will also explore specific post-treatment support skills and techniques used to help guide the individual into long-recovery and reconstruction of identity, character, relationships, and resiliency. The end of the presentation will feature a story of long-term recovery to augment instruction.
