Dr Allen Berger, nationally recognized author/expert in the science of recovery and relationships.  He’s hosting The Evolution of Addiction Treatment Conference at the LAX Westin Hotel, December 8 – 11, 2011.  It’s open to the public!  As many of you know the current field of addiction treatment has been evolving for almost eight decades. During this time, we’ve seen many important developments in the field as well as many failed experiments. It seems time to step back and conduct a professional inventory of where we have been, where we are now, and where we are heading. Topics discussed include: Integrating Modern Psychotherapy with the 12 Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous, A Transpersonal Treatment Framework for Understanding Co-dependence, The Evolution of the Treatment of Co-Occurring Disorders in Substance Abuse Treatment: What Works, What Doesn’t and Trends and Future Directions, Recovery involving three stages: 1) getting clean and sober, 2) staying clean and sober, and 3) living clean and sober.
