Substance Misuse Work
Work that addresses someone’s drug and alcohol use is used in conjunction with other therapeutic techniques such as motivational interviewing and cognitive behavioural therapy. This work is split into groups and individual work that address firstly someone’s past substance use, their reasons for using and determine their motivation to change.
Earlier work addresses the clients ambivalence and seeks to shore up their motivation to reduce their use or work towards abstinence. Later work seeks to directly work on relapse prevention techniques that will enable a client to work towards their individual goal or less harmful or problematic use, or more often abstinence.
