In this workshop recorded live, Dr. Bob Wubbolding, EdD addresses clients with a wide range of diagnoses who often display an inability or unwillingness to deal with the reality of their situations, and choose ineffective or destructive methods of coping instead.

Mental health and addictions professionals need skills that can be used as brief interventions, combining empathy with the belief that a better life is possible for clients. This skills training video program provides these skills and strategies as well as tools for helping clients move from helplessness to more effective control of their lives by gaining a sense of hope as well as plans for self-improvement.

Dr. Wubbolding demonstrates his time-honored techniques and explains his WDEP system. The role-plays are included on the 4th DVD, along with the PowerPoint presentations for you to use and discuss with your clients.
