Behind the Curtain of Addiction:

Congruence Couple Therapy Reveals

Presented by: 

Bonnie Lee, PhD

Associate Professor, Health Sciences, University of Lethbridge

1:30 - 2:30 CST

Substance use and behavioural addictive disorders have moved from the margins to the mainstream of our society. MFTs who are equipped with knowledge and skills to work with these complex problems will be in demand. Attend this lecture to learn more about addiction and what lurks behind the curtain. Learn how a new model of systemic therapy shifts the focus of addiction from the individual to the couple as a critical site of intervention and its results not only for addiction symptoms, but also for couple adjustment, psychiatric symptoms, emotion regulation and reduction of life stress.

AGM - 2:30 - 2:45 CST

The AGM will include an opportunity to vote on our bylaws, and introduction of the current leadership. If you have an interest in being a part of the board or a committee you can let Eric Bailey know ahead of time. We will be recruiting people for the standing committees after the meeting.

Panel Discussion - 2:45 - 3:30 CST

The panel discussion, moderated by Carlie Pagens, will focus on the stories of 3 therapists and a discussion of their current work environments.  The panel consists of Karen Gibson (private practice), Eric Bailey (nonprofit organization), and Ryan Melin (government).
