 Addiction Treatment using Adlerian Principles: Finding Courage and Hope in a Discouraging Environment

Mary-Rose will talk about addictions treatment of drug and alcohol addicted prisoners, sharing the way she works and the techniques she find most helpful in encouraging clients to lead a life free of crime and mind/mood-altering substances. Through the use of case-studies and client vignettes Mary-Rose hopes to show how she utilises some of the Adlerian principles as described in the work of Henry Stein and James Holder.

Mary-Rose has worked as a counsellor using Adlerian techniques since her training in the early 1980s. After an integrated psychotherapy training in the mid ‘80s she went on to work with dual diagnosis clients in the USA where she completed State and National Certification in Addictions Treatment, always incorporating Adlerian thinking in her therapeutic approach. She currently works as a Drug and Alcohol Practitioner at HMP Brixton on the Drug Recovery Wing.
