Resource Type

Info for Clinician

Description

When a client begins treatment for psychoactive chemical abuse, the counselor should not only provide the resources necessary to stop abusing, but also the tools needed to maintain a healthy and responsible life. Often times, proper money management is a necessity to further ensure the client's sobriety, but is overlooked during treatment. Through this course, The Dynamics of Money in Treatment: Helping Your Clients Create Financial Health,* author Judith Gruber, LCSW, CCET outlines how money is used as a reflection of the client's beliefs, attitudes, and self-perceptions, how the client relates to money, and how the client's misconceptions and self-imposed images lead to addictive behavior. These tools will allow the counselor to assist a client in making responsible, sober choices with money on a daily basis. This course is designed for any professional or student who works in a therapeutic, counseling, social service, human service, or mental health environment.
