PSYCHOTHERAPY FOR CLIENTS WITH
ADDICTIVE DISORDERS
Addictive disorders can be particularly challenging for clients. Not only do these
disorders typically interfere with a client’s ability to function in daily life, but they also
often manifest as negative and sometimes criminal behaviors. Sometime clients with
addictive disorders also suffer from other mental health issues, creating even greater
struggles for them to overcome. In your role, you have the opportunity to help clients
address their addictions and improve outcomes for both the clients and their families.
