Description:
This presentation explores the use of experiential techniques that allow patients to better understand emotions, their evolutional origins in brain functioning, their impact on hypo-aroused and hyper-aroused behaviors, and impact on relational attachment. This course will provide a framework to simultaneously treat the recovery of an individual as well as the couple relationship through an attachment lens. Couple therapy can bring healing to the relationship as well as improve individual diagnosis such as substance use disorder. One major issue that can destroy intimate relationships is addiction where couples are four times more likely to divorce even after addiction recovery (Navarra, 2019). Empirically based modalities, such as the Gottman Method or Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy, share findings that a couple-family based framework is the most effective treatment for addiction (Navarra, 2019). Also, one of the strongest predictors of long-term sobriety is relationship satisfaction (Humphreys et al. 1997). What a beautiful way to utilize a relationship recovery framework that offers healing not only for the individual but also the family.

Social workers, marriage and family therapists, and professional counselors in Pennsylvania can receive continuing education from providers approved by the American Psychological Association. Since CBI is approved by the American Psychological Association to sponsor continuing education, licensed social workers, licensed marriage and family therapists, and licensed professional counselors in Pennsylvania will be able to fulfill their continuing education requirements by attending CBI continuing education programs. For professionals outside the state of Pennsylvania, you must confirm with your specific State Board that APA approved CE's are accepted towards your licensure requirements. The Association of Social Work Boards (ASWB) has a process for approving individual programs or providers for continuing education through their Approved Continuing Education (ACE) program. ACE approved providers and individual courses approved by ASWB are not accepted by every state and regulatory board for continuing education credits for social workers. Every US state other than New York accepts ACE approval for social workers in some capacity: New Jersey only accepts individually approved courses for social workers, rather than courses from approved providers. The West Virginia board requires board approval for live courses, but accepts ASWB ACE approval for other courses for social workers. For more information, please see https://www.aswb.org/ace/ace-jurisdiction-map/. Whether or not boards accept ASWB ACE approved continuing education for other professionals such as licensed professional counselors or licensed marriage and family therapists varies by jurisdiction. To determine if a course can be accepted by your licensing board, please review your board’s regulations or contact them. State and provincial regulatory boards have the final authority to determine whether an individual course may be accepted for continuing education credit.
