A Recorded Webinar
Recorded on Wednesday, January 10, 2024
Jump to Course Contents
Description
The addiction profession has made incredible progress in adopting harm reduction strategies as clinical intervention tools for persons with substance use disorders. Many patients in a harm reduction clinical pathway will often express no need or no desire for counseling. Unfortunately in this scenario, the clinical interventions that are most effective for a patient who does not believe they need treatment are not used. Counselors simply stop and feel ambivalent about "pressuring a patient" into counseling that they express they are not in need of. In this presentation, participants will review which clinical interventions most effective for people who express they do not want or do not need counseling.
Learning Objectives
- Participants will be able to utilize three empathic skills to help engage disengaged patient populations.
- Participants will be able to connect evidence-based clinical interventions with direct points of need towards patients who express they do not want or need counseling services.
- Participants will be able to apply three new tools for their toolbelt to support harm reduction patients in their recovery journey.
