Description

Shame. Fear. Denial. Accessibility. 

These are obstacles that people face when seeking help for substance use disorders.  Each obstacle is a threat to recovery that can keep treatment dropout rates high and success rates low.  

You can remove some of the biggest barriers to substance use treatment by offering telehealth as a treatment lifeline to clients fighting for their lives! 

This training will show you how you can provide effective, HIPAA-compliant substance use treatment via telehealth so you can expand accessibility, improve client retention and engagement, and provide a treatment space for those who feel uncomfortable coming to a physical office.    

Join addictions treatment expert, speaker, and author Paul Brasler, MA, MSW, LCSW, and he’ll provide you with the skills you need to: 

  • Navigate privacy & informed consent issues unique to telehealth 
  • Remotely address safety concerns 
  • Screen & assess for drug use at a distance 
  • Deliver trauma-informed treatment interventions 
  • Boost client engagement, even when you’re not in the same room 
  • Tailor proven treatment strategies for virtual delivery 
  • Apply your skills to virtual group sessions

Telehealth will continue to grow and become a more integral component of addiction treatment.  

Don’t wait to add this valuable treatment format to your work! Set up your clients for recovery success!
