Learn More Updates on Treating Tobacco Dependence – 7 CEs Presented by Audrey Darville, PhD, APRN, NCTTP, FAANP, Therese Shumaker, MA, NCTTP, James Brawner, MEd, NCTTP, and Jon Ebbert, MD Presented in partnership with the Association for the Treatment of Tobacco Use and Dependence (ATTUD), this full day training will consist of mini-sessions on the following topics: (1) Tobacco as a Chronic Disease; (2) Pharmacotherapy for Tobacco Dependence; (3) E-Cigarettes; (4) Treating Special Populations - Mental Health/Substance Use/Adolescents; (4) The Four Es of Tobacco Cessation for Homeless Populations; (5) Motivational Strategies; and (6) National Certificate/Certification. Basics of Addiction Counseling: Pharmacology of Psychoactive Substance Use Disorders – 7 CEs Presented by Deborah Fenton-Nichols, EdD, LPC, LAC The purpose of this workshop is to introduce addiction counselors and other helping professionals to the study of pharmacology and to increase their familiarity with the signs and symptoms of psychoactive substances. Before pharmacology can be explored, it is important to understand the direct connection between psychoactive substance use, brain functioning, and addiction. This workshop is not intended to make clinicians or service providers experts in pharmacology. However the information presented will provide facts that can assist in the assessment, treatment, and referral of clients. Clinical Supervision: A Relational and Individualized Approach – 7 CEs Presented by Thomas Durham, PhD Effective clinical supervision is a mutual endeavor of clinical oversight and professional growth. It is a process that conceptualizes learning for the counselor that involves much more than monitoring a counselor’s work. This workshop is an overview of NAADAC’s new manual, Clinical Supervision: An Overview of Functions, Processes and Methodology, and will demonstrate the processes of supervision that make it an essential component in effective clinical care. Areas of focus include relational dynamics, individualized approaches, and strength-based competencies – all hallmarks of skill development through evidence-based supervision that ultimately leads to effective client care.
