Utilization sobriety

Description

This presentation poses a substance abuse treatment which acknowledges and accommodates the personal needs being addressed by substance use, bypasses perceived resistance, and employs idiosyncratic psycho-biological learning to achieve a body-mind gestalt complementary to the client’s sobriety. Client self-empowerment and relapse prevention are built into the intervention. This method develops a safe framework for addressing any subsequent mental health themes directly or indirectly related to substance misuse. Ideomotor questioning is employed as a practical conduit to body-mind communication and function. Because this is a relatively new strategy, fundamental information applicable to all levels of professional experience will be provided. Educational Objectives: Describe the utilization principle as applied to psycho-biological learning. Demonstrate one brief approach to substance abuse treatment. Describe one application of ideomotor questioning.
