Identifying & Managing the Inner Saboteur: Starting Relapse Prevention with Denial Management

Presented by Dr. Stephen Grinstead, AD, LMFT, ACRPS from Idaho

This audio/visual presentation aims to help viewers deal more effectively with clients exhibiting denial and treatment resistance. Viewers will be able to understand the philosophy of resistance and denial as well as learning how to effectively intervene and disrupt your clients’ self-defeating patterns of behavior. Using terms like the “inner saboteur” or self-defeating defenses is an important part of helping clients recognize, normalize, de-pathologize and manage their denial. Viewers will be encouraged to explore their own personal defenses and how they developed to be more effective with the clients they serve. Special emphasis is placed on building a collaborative relationship with clients.
