Class 1 

The Ethical Application of Life Coaching for Clinicians (3 CE Credits - Ethics)

10:00 AM - 1:00 PM EST

Clinicians have much to gain from learning the skills of Life Coaching. While life Coaching is often considered a subset of CBT in truth it is much more.

Practitioners who learn the art of coaching can expand their expertise beyond basic clinical service provision. They can Empower clients and colleagues to be more autonomous. They can enhance their leadership, consulting and mediation skills, as well as these skills in their clients. And facilitate change that comes from the client (inside out vs. outside in). This training will address ethical applications of life coaching techniques practiced by licensed clinicians.

Class 2 

Trauma Informing the 12 Steps: Empowerment in Substance Use & Addiction Recovery (3 CE Credits) 

1:45 PM - 4:45 PM EST

Clients living with substance misuse & addiction often have histories of emotional, physical and/or sexual trauma. The 12 Step groups AA and NA are the most widespread and available peer support groups for addiction recovery, though some language of the 12 Steps may be contraindicated for survivors of trauma.

This training provides an introduction to broadened definitions of trauma with examples throughout the lifespan. We will review the key principles of Trauma Informed Care by SAMHSA. Participants will also explore the relationship between unhealed trauma and the development of substance use disorders through an overview of the Adverse Childhood Experiences Study (ACES). We will analyze language of the 12 steps through a trauma informed lens, offering alternative language options to promote healing empowerment & prevent re-traumatization; Attendees will come away with resources to refer clients seeking peer support alternatives to the 12 steps. 

**This Training is Not Affiliated with AA, NA or any 12 Step program or entity**
