Wellness is a way of life oriented to optimal health and living fully within the human community. Clients struggling with alcohol and other drug problems are seeking an improved quality of life. Structured Relapse Prevention (SRP) is a program of integrated counselling strategies that includes Motivational Interviewing, cognitive-behavioural treatments, and a variety of coping skills strategies that are organized to meet clients’ different needs and treatment goals. Clients are met where they are in their current substance use, and autonomy for change remains with the client. This presentation is an introductory overview for Counsellors who wish to expand their skills repertoire for working with clients presenting with alcohol and other drug problems.
