This course will provide a
thorough description of the process of addiction counseling (individual, group
&amp; family), the qualities of a professional addiction counselor, therapeutic
interventions, multicultural sensitive counseling practices and more. This
course will give explicit examples of therapeutic techniques and interventions
as well as the theoretical perspective they come from. Lastly, but most
importantly (as in other courses as well), this course will explain and guide
the counselor in how to establish the therapeutic alliance – the foundation
from which therapy/counseling works.
