Full Description
Updated to meet DMS-5 classifications, this flexible program draws from cognitive-behavioural, experiential, and Twelve Step approaches to help clients achieve lifelong recovery. Sessions can be easily customised for specific client populations or treatment tracks. Co-occurring Disorders is made up of sessions that focus treatment, phases of dual recovery, self-help groups, medication use, relapse prevention, and more.
