Helping Women Recover
20 Session Program
Virtual Training March 1-2 & 8-9, 2022
Dr. Covington’s innovative, evidence-based 20 session program integrates theories of women’s psychological development, trauma, and addiction to meet the needs of women with addictive disorders. For the first time, this virtual training is open to the general public. Space will be limited for this interactive virtual training.
Over the past forty years our knowledge of women’s lives has increased dramatically, and we have added significantly to our understanding of the treatment needs of women with addictive disorders.
Based on Dr. Covington’s curriculum Helping Women Recover: A Program for Treating Addiction, this interactive training offers a comprehensive treatment model that integrates theories of addiction, women’s psychological development, and trauma. Designed to give counselors, clinicians, and program administrators a basic understanding of the essential elements needed for the development of women’s programs, the training focuses primarily on women’s recovery. The emphasis is on the key issues of self, relationships, sexuality, spirituality, and the trauma-informed therapeutic techniques for dealing with these issues. Trauma-sensitive yoga exercises, updated gender information, and new brain research as it relates to addiction and trauma will be addressed.
