Description
Innumerable explanations and treatment models have been proffered for addressing addictions and addictive behaviors in our current era. Advances in behavioral and affective neuroscience have significantly advanced these endeavors. At the same time, neuroscience and its integration into counseling is growing at a rapid pace and providers need to know how to respond. One key area of integration involves treatment of both addictions and relationships. This session will address both addiction and relational disorder from a neuroscience integration perspective. Specifically, it explores the links between relational deficits and vulnerability to addiction. It describes the neurobiological connections between the two, along with recommendations for effective treatment.
Learning Objectives
- Discuss brain basics that have the most relevance for counseling practice with addictions and relational disorders.
- Explore the deleterious effects of non-nurturing early environments on the brain.
- Examine interventions for relational trauma and addiction, using a Metaphoric Model of brain-based counseling.
