Addressing Addiction, Fostering Attachment with Couples Using EFT Opportunity: The addictions field experienced significant transformations and improvements over the past two decades as we learned that confrontation comes with consequences, addicts go through stages of change, skills need to be developed and the addict returning to a world of unhealed relationships faces the likelihood of relapse. Developments in neuroscience and sociology confirm that attachment exists as a primary system and need in all humans. Addiction impacts attachment and bonds while substances and process addictions can serve to soothe and distract a person from the pain insecure attachments and isolation. We now have the tools to integrate an attachment-based focus into addiction treatment at all stages from pre-contemplation where addicts and families often live on the merry-go-round of addiction, denial and blame through contemplation and in to the action of cleaning up or reducing use while reengaging with loved ones. This reengagement with partners and family creates new found security which in turns lessens the chances of relapse. A new positive cycle can be created in couples and families that supports sobriety, growth and healing. Workshop: This workshop provides an invaluable view of addiction and the systemic processes surrounding addictive behavior. The workshop will expand how clinicians see this common presenting problem.
