CBT and Relapse Prevention

About the Course:

A common, though necessary, approach in chemical dependence treatment is teaching recovery tools to be utilized when craving strikes.  However, teaching tools for intentional avoidance of the craving cycle is often overlooked placing patients at unnecessary risk of relapse. This training demonstrates utilization of CBT principles and Gorski Model relapse prevention skills in aiding patients to proactively deter craving before it occurs.

This course is based on the recorded webinar, CBT and Relapse Prevention created by Bob Tyler, LAADC-CA, SAP, ACRPS in 2019.
