Addiction and Mental Health Presentation

“We don’t just treat addiction.” We end up treating mental health at the same time. People with addiction quite often have mental health issues that need to be addressed at the same time. People many times will have shared correlations between addiction and mental health. This is one of the reasons why people continue to return to use.

You will learn how to spot behavioral and physical signs of addiction. As well as learn about the process of getting someone into treatment and some resources in the local area.
