Sponsored by Transformations Enterprise, this 10-hour course equips counselors with information and skills to help clients effectively break through their denial, increase their motivation to stop the use of alcohol and other drugs, and avoid relapse by staying engaged in the recovery process.

At the end of the home study training, participants will be able to:

1. Help clients process the dynamics of denial and addiction at deeper levels
   
2. Help clients get in touch, emotionally, with the consequences of past chemical use
   
3. Help clients become more consciously aware of the consequences of continued drug or alcohol use
   
4. Help clients stay more consciously aware of how they will benefit by maintaining their recovery
