"There is little or no evidence for the popular theory that people are 'self-medicating' for the symptoms of mental illness or for the side effects of medications that they take for their mental disorders." Robert E. Drake, M.D., Ph.D. Presenter

Finding the time and funds to attend conferences or to earn continuing education contact hours isn't always possible. The CLINICAL INNOVATORS SERIES makes it easier for you. Treatment that integrates mental health and substance abuse issues can offer clients long-term hope and optimism.

Dartmouth Medical School psychiatrist Robert Drake is nationally known for his work in evidence-based psychiatry, especially among substance-abusing clients with severe mental disorders. He has the data to prove that treatment for occurring disorders works, and he shares it in this video workshop and manual.

You'll learn:
*Why treatment of co-occurring disorders doesn't and shouldn't end with deinstitutionalization
*The stages of change of treatment and how to navigate them
*How to help clients through the short-term process of remission and into the long-term process of recovery

*Includes a video workshop, a clinician's manual written by Drake, and a test that allows you to earn continuing education contact hours.
