Join us for an immersive and transformative workshop that delves into the dynamic interplay between peer coaching and clinical treatment in the roles of prevention and addiction recovery. Designed for professionals across the spectrum of services, including clinicians, coaches, and peer support specialists, this comprehensive session will provide valuable insights and strategies to promote prevention and support individuals on their recovery journey.
We will explore how both peer coaching and clinical treatment aim to improve lives, each offering unique perspectives and tools. You'll gain a clear understanding of the distinctions between these approaches, including who is considered “the expert in the room” and how they uniquely address the challenges their clients face. Learn how clinicians' and coaches' tools can complement each other to provide a holistic support system to bolter prevention efforts or better support those in recovery. Through real-world examples, we’ll illustrate how peer coaching and clinical treatment can work together to create a comprehensive prevention or recovery plan.
What to expect from the session:
Explore various intervention strategies, from structured clinical interventions to self-guided peer coaching techniques like the Person-Activity Fit Diagnostic and the elements of The Warrior Reset to foster resilience.
Understand the importance of building resilience through coaching to prevent relapse and navigate the landscape of certifications and credentials for peer support specialists.
Participants will leave with a robust toolkit of strategies and insights, enhanced by Garret Biss’s unique perspective as a retired Marine Corps Pilot, addiction recovery coach, and TEDx Speaker.
