- Description:
- Are you and the DSM-5 speaking the same language on Substance Use Disorders? Dr. Clare Steffen explains the updated terminology and diagnostic criteria.
Full Description:
For over 10 years, we have been focused on determining the best language to use when talking about addiction. With the release of the DSM- 5, we can now move away from simple categories and formally recognize that substance use and accompanying problems exist across a full spectrum.
This webinar explores the rationale for changes found within the DSM-5. Participants consider how to embrace these changes, while also including traditional concepts of dependence and abuse and familiar behavioral guideposts of tolerance and withdrawal symptoms. Dr. Clare Steffen highlights the benefits of the new terminology for developing more accurate diagnoses, creating new treatment and prevention paradigms, and reducing socio-cultural bias.

- Are your clients trapped by their feelings of betrayal? Help them safely process these feelings so that they can complete the healing process.
Full Description:
One type of complicated mourning that is often overlooked or given very little attention is betrayal trauma (BT), despite the fact that in the majority of cases it is the primary issue keeping people stuck in the healing process. Betrayal trauma can occur within numerous contexts, including treatment of an abuse victim by family or professionals, the inability of someone to let go of an affair, or the impotent rage of trying to deal with systems seemingly ill-equipped to help.
This webinar differentiates situations in which BT is either the primary or secondary trauma. Participants will discover the importance of timing in addressing the issue of BT, and of distinguishing it from other thought disorders. Ms. Bradley-Ball will share proven therapeutic approaches that assist clients in safely processing BT.
