Tuesday, February 21, 2:00 – 3:30 ET Being Real: The Power of Authenic Therapeutic Relationships in Women’s Services No intervention is effective without having the foundational pieces of good clinical care in place. How do you build authentic rapport that generates the trust needed to facilitate healing? This webinar kicks off the Relationships Matter! series with a look at the therapeutic relationships that help women engage in services and recovery. Learn why relationships matter, how to build trust and rapport, what strategies help define and create therapeutic alliance, and more. Thursday, March 9, 2:00 – 3:30 P.M. EST #RelationshipGoals: Significant Others in Women’s Recovery Women’s substance use and mental health issues do not exist in isolation; women’s relationships and partners may facilitate or derail the recovery process. This webinar will explore the impact of behavioral health conditions on significant relationships; interventions that support positive outcomes for women, their partners, and their families; and considerations in service planning.
Tuesday, May 9, 2:00 – 3:30 P.M. EST Motherhood: What it Means for Women’s Recovery For many women, caretaking—especially caretaking in motherhood—is their most defining and most meaningful role. Substance use and mental health problems may challenge a woman’s ability to effectively parent. Child welfare is often the entry point into behavioral health care. Many effective interventions and supports are available to support women, their children, and their families. This session will discuss those interventions/supports, along with the importance of support for women who choose not to parent. Learn more about using motherhood as a pivot point to access help in substance use and mental health, incorporating family-centered approaches for women with behavioral health disorders and their children, meeting the needs of complex families, and more.
Tuesday, June 13, 2:00– 3:30 P.M. EST The Role of Intimate Partner Violence in Women’s Substance Use and Recovery
