1 Hour Webinar Training with Joseph Zannella

PRESENTATION: This training is designed for Intermediate and Advanced clinicians seeking to understand and treat the growing problem of high-risk behaviors. The excitement and attraction of many activities leads to habitual and often hazardous outcomes. Clients often describe the thrill of crime, drug seeking, and anti-social behaviors. This training will explore the physical and mental attraction and addictive potential of these activities. Underlying mental health disorders that may contribute to the behaviors will be identified. Learning how to identify and educate clients who engage in these activities will help with their overall outcomes and decrease the risk of our clients self-harming.

Participants will:

  1. Learn the biological basis for Fear and why it can become attractive.
  2. Learn similarities and differences between fear addiction and other addictions.
  3. Explain possible treatment for individuals addicted to the adrenaline rush.
  4. Explore supportive medications and treatments.
