Similarly, most addicted clients, especially those at the beginning of their recovery process, have little-to-no motivation to change. As a result, traditional talk therapy often proves ineffective and other modalities, especially those that are experiential and creative in nature, are necessary. Drawing from more than 50 years of combined clinical work, a panel of clinicians present their “best stuff” to work experientially and creatively with addicted clients. Attendees will leave with a bevy of effective exercises to use with their addicted (and other) clients.
