1.5 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™
Treatment of patients with substance use disorders can be fraught with challenges for clinicians. Through their denial system, this patient population may have difficulty fully engaging in treatment, and their interactions can generate strong emotional reactions in the clinicians who are treating them. In this presentation, Dr. Gregory will use principles from Dynamic Deconstructive Psychotherapy to provide a model for understanding some of the dilemmas in working with this patient population and how they may inform pragmatic therapeutic interventions.
